School Profile
The
school was established in 1945 as a Junior School, on the 80 acre land
donated by the late Prince Badru Wasajja Kakungulu, with the major
objective of educating Muslim children in order to redress the
historical imbalance in Muslim education relative to other religious
denominations.
In
1960 Kibuli Junior School was upgraded into secondary school education
for both Muslims and non-Muslims. It started as a private school and in
1962 it became Government aided.In 1968 it was upgraded to ‘A’ level
status.
From
1968 to 1975 the US through USAID (the 1st and 2nd IDA projects)
contributed immensely to the construction of the school’s
infrastructure, for instance the Administration block and Laboratories.
Other facilities at the school were put up by the Agakhan Foundation,
individual members and other parents through the Parents’ and Teachers
Association.

seven subjects are compulsory at 0’ level whereas the rest are optional
but at A’ level all are optional. Students offer four (4) principal
subjects and general paper as the compulsory subsidiary subject. All our
teachers are graduate teachers with more than half the staff with
either a master’s degree or already pursuing doctorates in various
fields of study. We have a relatively stable staff with a lot of
teaching experience ranging from 5 – 20 years with continuous in
service/refresher training. Kibuli Secondary School has an excellent
record as regards the students’ performance in the external examinations

with excellent results and 100% of our ‘A’ level students pass
excellently and continue to universities and other tertiary institutions
not only in Uganda but also abroad.
Our

Sports, and through clubs like; Social Clubs, Debating Club, Music,

students are involved in at least one or more of these co-curricular
activities as they are carried out on inter-house or interclass
competition basis and everyone must contribute in one way or the other.
Towards the achievements of the house/class one is in. As a school, we
are at present the national champions in football and our girls’
basketball team took the national trophy for keeps. This year, after
being champions for three consecutive years. Many of our excellent
sports students have been playing in the first league clubs not only in
Uganda, but also abroad. In order to address the big inflow expected as a
result of the universal secondary school, which is to start in 2007,
the school is in dire need of expansion. However, the need to develop is
tremendous, for instance, there is an urgent need for a new and bigger
girls’ hostel, more laboratory space, a resource center, staff quarters
and an administration block with an expanded staff room are so far
priority on the list of developments to be taken up in future. The
