Abstract
Following the traditional British system of schooling, the school system of Uganda is set up under a format that compels students to learn, study, and prepare themselves for advancement to the next respective level by way of national examination. The system is divided into three primary and secondary levels before advancement to the university level. These three levels include the primary level, the secondary ordinary level (“O” level), and the secondary advanced level (“A” level). To advance from one level to the next, national examinations are administered at the conclusion of each level and students who pass the examinations are qualified for the next level of schooling. Performance in school, most especially on these examinations, is crucial for the academic and social progress of a student and citizen of Uganda.
