Sunyani Secondary School popularly known as SUSEC is one of the products of Ghana Education Trust.

On 13 December 1960, Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah inaugurated the school, which started with only three teachers and nine non-teaching staff.

The school's emblem, an elephant, was selected because the name Sunyani is a distorted variant of the name "Ason Dwaee," signifying the location where the legendary hunter and warrior Nana Boahen Korkor, the creator of the Sunyani traditional territory, killed and skinned elephants.

The following figures show the number of students who have passed out of Sunyani Secondary School.

Among these are doctors, nurses, lawyers parliamentarians, heads of institutions and departments, teachers, pastors, and businesspeople.
