HOW ANGLICAN TRAINING COLLEGE BECAME ANGLICAN SECONDARY SCHOOL NOW SNR HIGH. Anglican Training College (ANGLICO) became Anglican Secondary School (KASS) in 1973. In 1972, when the second Republic, under the Prime Minister, Dr. K. Busia was overthrown by Colonel I. Acheampong, the new government decided to either phase out or convert some of the numerous training colleges into secondary schools. An

glican Training College was listed as one of the Training Colleges to be phased out. The Training College staff, supported by their principal Rev. Philip Dawson Aggrey (B.D) wrote a petition which was signed by each teacher on the staff, asking the government not to phase out the college but to convert it into a secondary school to be called, Anglican Secondary School, Kumasi. About 25 teachers signed the petition which was channeled through the then bishop, the Rt. Arthur, who in turn wrote a covering letter approving of the petition. Both letters were forwarded to the then secretary of Education, Colonel Nkegbe in Accra. The petition was granted and in September 1973 Anglican Training College became Anglican Secondary School. It was a mixed school but in 1987 the girls were deboardinised and from then onwards the girls attended classes as day students. Aggrey who used to be the Principal of the training college was retained as the First Headmaster of the Secondary School. He administered the school from 1973 to 1981 when he retired. He was succeeded by Mr. John Poku from 1981 to 1986

In 1987. Mr. E. Kyere (a.k.a Kontonkyi) assumed duty as the third headmaster of the school. It was under him that the school improved academically. In 1999, the school was for the first time, invited to take part in the National Science and Maths Quiz Competitions. The current Headmaster, Rev. Canon E.Y. Brobe-Mensah assumed headship of the school in November 2003, following the retirement of Mr. Kyere in November 2003. The school has, since its establishment, been headed by the following:
