About Us

Welcome to Born Heroes Foundation, where we recognize that the cornerstone of Ghanaian education lies in a proficient command of the English language—a fundamental skill crucial for excelling in all academic disciplines. At Born Heroes Foundation, we harness the transformative power of the “Junior Speller” competition as a dynamic tool to aid learners in mastering the English language, subsequently catalyzing improvement across all subjects.

Acknowledging the prevalent challenges posed by modern technology, which can often lead to academic distractions among children, we strategically position the Junior Speller Competition as an engaging and challenging contest. Our goal is to captivate the attention of young minds, instilling a year-long commitment to academic excellence.

Through the Junior Speller competition, our overarching mission is to empower students, especially those in basic schools, to achieve remarkable academic success. This initiative is meticulously crafted to unlock the full potential of each student, paving the way for them to make substantial contributions to their communities and the global arena.

Distinguished as the largest spelling competition in Ghana, Junior Speller is a program that prioritizes the welfare of children, earning widespread support from schools and parents. We emphasize a commitment to building the confidence of children, ensuring that each stage of the contest involves a physical competition rather than an online format. The journey to victory spans five stages, culminating in the triumphant lifting of the trophy.

At Born Heroes Foundation, inclusivity is paramount. To ensure that even children without internet access can benefit, we broadcast the entire contest—from district competitions to the grand finale. Junior Speller comprises two categories: Basic 1-4 and Basic 5-9, making it the singular competition that draws the participation of over 3000 students from more than 200 schools nationwide annually.

This nationwide competition serves as a powerful platform to showcase the intelligence and hard work of learners across the country. Join us on this transformative journey where education, language mastery, and the holistic development of students take center stage. Born Heroes Foundation is not just an organization; it’s a commitment to shaping a brighter future through education and empowerment.
