4.0 Academics

4.1 Uganda National Examinations Board

We are glad to report that all the candidates of S4 and S6 have successfully completed their papers, and each of them was sent home as soon as they completed their respective papers. We request you to continue giving them wise counsel and guidance they need for their well being.

4.2 Continuing Classes

S1, S2, S3 and S5 students have been taught thoroughly to make a good coverage of the respective syllabi. The same classes have been subjected to numerous assessments to build their confidence in examination answering techniques. We request you to encourage them revise their books seriously.

5.0 Discipline

The discipline of our children has been generally good. We thank God Almighty for the guiding Spirit. A few cases of indiscipline that occurred during the year were handled and settled by the School Administration and the Parents of the errant children. We thank those Parents for the cooperation exhibited while correcting their children.

6.0 Purchase of School Shuttle (Coaster)

Public transport has always frustrated our children and staff whenever they go out on academic programmes. In order to overcome that challenge, the Board of Governors voted that each child pays shs 100,000 (One hundred thousand shillings only) as a one-off contribution in Term 1, 2024 to enable the School purchase its own shuttle (Coaster).
