Hon. Caroline Kamusiime Muhwezi, the Rukiga District Woman Member of Parliament, on Saturday called on parents, teachers, and government officials to unite in raising the standards of education in the district.
Represented by her husband, Andrew Muhwezi, as the chief guest at a dedication event for Primary Seven candidates of Muhanga Golden Nursery and Primary School ahead of the upcoming Primary Leaving Examinations, Caroline Kamusiime emphasized that achieving better academic results requires a collaborative effort. She pointed out that when a child receives a good education, they ultimately serve the entire nation, not just their family.
She further urged the people of Rukiga to rise above political divisions and focus on developing their communities.
Rukiga District Resident Commissioner (RDC) Zadock Kamusiime expressed gratitude to the Ugandan government for supporting privatization, noting that this policy has improved education quality, with private schools often outperforming UPE (Universal Primary Education) schools.
Oscar Akampurira, the Director of Muhanga Golden Nursery and Primary School and Chairperson of the Rukiga Private Schools Association, encouraged the candidates to remain committed and focused during the exam period. He also pledged to achieve excellent results in the forthcoming Primary Leaving Examinations.
