NSMQ 2026: Saviour SHS returns to national championship after one-year absence
Saviour Senior High School secured a return to the National Science and Maths Quiz (NSMQ) National Championship after emerging winners in the Eastern Regional qualifiers, ending a one-year absence from Ghana's premier academic competition. The school accumulated 46 points to finish ahead of Nkwatia Presby SHS, which settled for second place with 41 points. Abuakwa State College placed third with 32 points, while H'Mount Sinai SHS finished with 10 points.
The victory marks a significant turnaround for Saviour SHS, which failed to qualify for the 2025 National Championship. The contest remained competitive throughout, with Nkwatia Presby SHS staying within striking distance of the eventual winners for much of the competition. Saviour SHS maintained its composure in the closing stages to preserve a five-point advantage and seal automatic qualification for the 2026 national finals. For Nkwatia Presby SHS, the result will come as a disappointment after a spirited performance that kept the contest alive until the final stages, only to fall narrowly short of qualification. Saviour SHS now joins the growing list of schools from the Eastern Region to have secured places at the 2026 National Science and Maths Quiz National Championship as the regional qualifying series continues.
