Achievements
Academic
Typically, 55-60 percent of the UCE students achieve Division 1 passes and 85-90 percent Division 1 or 2 passes. Of all recorded grades, about 20 percent are distinctions and 65 percent are credits. In 2004, Nishala Bandali scored the top rating of 8 points (the range is 6 - 54 points).
At the Advanced level, about half the students obtain 3 or 4 principal level passes to proceed to the best universities. A further 25 percent qualified for other tertiary institutions. Paul Tayebwa was the top performer in 2004 with 20 points.
The first IGCSE results for the school will be available shortly.
Sports
Two sports the High School excels in are Cricket and Badminton. So far in 2005, the School Cricket team is unbeaten in the province; the Badminton players unbeaten in the nation. Ronald Ssemanda, an S3 student, plays under-19 Cricket for Uganda, is currently best schoolboy bowler, Uganda Sportsman of the Month (February 2005) and was part of a 4-man Uganda team in a 5-country regional Lawn Tennis tournament. Ronald also plays for the School Table Tennis and Badminton teams.
Community Service
In June 2004, High School students and staff organized a high profile fund-raising for the war-displaced children of northern Uganda. Over $25,000 came in and has gone towards fencing a night commuter shelter for the children and for sleeping mats. Closer to home, High School students peer tutor in the Primary School and assist in an orphanage.
