With a rise in the Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE) performance of candidates scoring Division 1, UNEB announced a drop in failures and 95.9% of learners who sat for the 2023 UCE examination qualify to proceed to the next levels. 49.5% of the total number were male and 50.5% female.
The overall performance in the sciences has again not impressed UNEB with less than 20% of the candidates obtaining Credit pass scores in Physics and Chemistry subjects, and upto 40% unable to pass.
What do these results really mean to us as a nation? This is the overall assessment of hundreds of thousands of youth in their journey to adulthood and what quality of adulthood have we packaged for them.
Dr. John Mary Vianney Mitanda, (E.D JM Education & Research Centre) discusses the implication of the 2023 UCE results via the link below.
