The headmaster of Rwentobo Secondary School, Vincent Mubangizi Barugahare, urged students and parents not to transfer students to higher-performing schools after achieving good results at O-level.
He emphasized that such moves often lead to academic struggles due to cultural differences and may result in poorer performance. This appeal was made during a luncheon celebrating the school’s successful O-level examination results.
Additionally, Cavendish University Vice Chancellor Prof John Mugisha Katekyeza, who owns the school, announced various measures to support students financially. These include full fee waivers for candidates scoring between Aggregate 8 and 20, half bursaries for those achieving first grades, and a fixed fee of 450,000 for returning students.
Katekyeza explained that these initiatives aim to alleviate financial burdens on parents while allowing the school to provide additional support and guidance to students who wish to remain and improve their academic performance.
