Nabisunsa Girls School

By | February 21, 2024

There is no doubt that today Nabisunsa Girls’ Secondary School is one of the best performing schools in the country. With more than 90% of its students qualifying to join university every year, it competes very well with the best girls’ schools in the land. It is one of many fruits of the tireless efforts of Prince Badru Kakungulu and his henchmen and a befitting reason to celebrate the success of Young Men Muslim Association 75 after its founding.

Nabisunsa Girls Secondary School is an all-girl boarding school located in Kampala, Uganda. The school was founded in 1954 by Prince Badru Kakungulu, a Buganda Royal, in 1954, to offer post-primary education to the Muslim girl-child. Today it admits girls of all faiths.

The new A’ level block is almost complete, what remains is fixing external fixtures and will house all HSC students. A new four level laboratory block was put up to address the lack of laboratory to handle science classes; the roofing stage has been completed. It needs funds and urgent completion. Most teachers reside out of the school posing a heavy cost for transport and rent, where over sh150m is spent annually on transport and rent.

For security reasons, the entire school needs a wall fence, only a portion of the school has been fenced today. The school needs its own sports to avoid spending money on hiring sports fields. The school sports court needs funds for rehabilitation. The solar power, water project and various construction programs are under way but many need funds to enable completion. More importantly four more storied buildings are needed with 12 classrooms.

Presently the school has a challenge of admission to senior one and senior five where Muslim students of quality are not available. The school wants to get feeder schools to supply high quality Muslim students.
