A number of districts and municipalities in the Central Region of Uganda or Buganda Region are known for their good performance in national exams. In this report, The Pearl Times looks at the list of top 300 best performing PLE 2024 schools in Buganda (Central Uganda) region in all municipalities and districts.
This Pearl Times ranking of Central Uganda (Buganda) schools is based on an analysis of the results recently released by Education Minister Janet Museveni after Uganda National Examinations Board (Uneb) briefed her.
For this list, the aggregate average score is the basis for what are listed hereunder as top best performing PLE 2024 schools in Buganda (Central Uganda) region .
“To understand this ranking, imagine a district with only two candidates: one with aggregate four and another with aggregate 36. The average aggregate score is 20 four plus 36, then divide the total by two — the number of candidates. Simply: (04+36=40; 40/2=20),” The Pearl Times editor has previously explained the concept of the average aggregate score HERE.
In Mubende District, for example, the best performing school there was Bright Star Primary School which had an average aggregate score of 11.95 for its 22 candidates. This means that the average aggregate score was well within the first grade or division one which ranges from aggregate four two 12.
What this means is that there could have candidates with in division one, two and maybe other grades. To get the average, you add all the aggregate scores for the 22 candidates at Bright Star Primary School.
Then, you get the total for all the candidates and divide it by 22 (the number of candidates at that Uneb centre or school). The result is the average aggregate score.
Sticking with Mubende District, Bright Star Primary School is followed by New Life Preparatory School Kasambya which has an average aggregate score of 12.83 for its 23 candidates.
