The Uganda National Examinations Board-UNEB is to offer a special mathematics exam to candidates of St Christine Primary School who missed the paper.
During this year’s primary leaving examinations, 23 out of 26 pupils of candidates at St Christine Primary School in Kakumiro District missed the first paper, Mathematics, having arrived late at the examination center.
Available information shows that the candidates arrived at the center 1 hour and 16 minutes late having trekked 16 kilometers when their director failed to provide transport on the examination day.
Dan N. Odongo, Uneb’s Executive director, in a statement issued on Thursday November 17, 2022, has directed the Kakumiro district inspector of schools to report to UNEB for details on the arrangements for the administration of an alternative mathematics paper.
