Kampala, Uganda | THE INDEPENDENT | The State Minister of Higher Education in Uganda, Dr. John Chrysostom Muyingo, informed Members of Parliament that the government is unable to take over the management of new schools in the current financial year due to a lack of funds. The delay in taking over schools was raised as a matter of national importance during a parliamentary session.

The Minister explained that the matter was presented to the cabinet, and the Ministry of Education was directed to find the necessary funds to ensure that every Ugandan child of school-going age can access education. Over 620 schools across the country have submitted applications to be classified and receive state subsidies, but budgetary constraints are preventing the government from taking ownership of new schools in the current financial year.

The Ministry of Education’s data indicates that there are 1,617 parishes without a public primary school and 350 sub-counties without a secondary school. To take over ownership of a single primary school, the government would need at least 110 million shillings, and for a secondary school, it would require 400 million shillings. The Minister emphasized that the government’s policy is to establish primary schools in every parish, secondary schools in every sub-county, and universities in all traditional regions of the country, but this is contingent on the availability of funds.
