Understanding the listings

School names, ownership labels, EMIS codes and locations are reproduced as supplied in the UBOS export. Schools with similar or repeated names are retained under their individual EMIS codes. A name containing “Seed”, “Infant”, “Nursery” or “Primary” does not override the education level or ownership recorded in the source.

A directory listing does not confirm current licensing, examination-centre status, participation in UPE or USE, or government funding. Families should confirm current arrangements with the school and the responsible education authorities.

Non-tertiary institutions

The supplied Buliisa export contains no non-tertiary institution records. This does not establish that no vocational or other training providers operate in the district.

Choosing a school

Visit the school and discuss your child’s needs with its administration. Consider teaching, learner welfare, safeguarding, sanitation, accessibility, distance from home and the full cost of attendance. Ask about support for learners with disabilities and other additional learning needs.

For secondary education, confirm the available subjects and levels. For early childhood and primary education, ask about reading support, class sizes, play opportunities and communication with parents.
