schools uganda

The system of education in Uganda has a structure of 7 years of primary education, 6 years of secondary education (divided into 4 years of lower secondary and 2 years of upper secondary school), and 3 to 5 years of post-secondary education. Education in Uganda is administered in English. All throughout the levels in the education structure, modules are taught and assessed in English. The government of Uganda recognizes education as a basic human right and continues to strive to provide free primary education to all children in the country. However, issues with funding, teacher training, rural populations, and inadequate facilities continue to hinder the progress of educational development in Uganda. More girls in Uganda complete primary school than boys (54% for girls versus 52% for boys), but the lead falls away for secondary school (25% for girls versus 28% for boys) and then at tertiary level there are significantly fewer women being educated than men (4% for women versus 6% for men).
