Broader Examination Crisis in KisoroThe situation at Kisoro Progressive Secondary School is part of a wider examination headache in the district.
The Kisoro district faces an examination crisis following the withholding of Primary Leaving Examination (PLE) results , which has affected approximately 500 candidates , creating a bottleneck that has hindered many from transitioning to secondary education.
Kisoro Woman Member of Parliament, Hon. Akifeza Grace Ngabirano, recently petitioned Parliament over what she describes as UNEB’s continued practice of withholding results.
The legislator deemed the issue one of urgent national importance , expressing grave concern over the prolonged uncertainty affecting candidates from her district and other parts of the country.
With the release of results at Kisoro Progressive Secondary School, attention now turns to resolving the outstanding PLE cases to ensure no learner’s academic journey is further disrupted.
