HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF THE COLLEGE The College
began in 1997 by three friends who contributed initial capital that was used to
put up three small classrooms and a few other facilities with which the college
opened. It started as a private
secondary college with only 22 students, two of whom were girls and the rest
boys On discovering
that the costs of running the college were too high and increasing, the founders
unanimously agreed to sell it off to its current principal –Mr. Kakinda Frank
Mbaaga who then took the initiative to re organize it by restructuring its
administration, which he gave to new and efficient staff headed by Mr. Zziwa
Vincent, the headmaster, assisted by the college bursar Mr. Kawooya Jimmy, the
estates manager Mr. Lwanga Steven and the Director of studies Mr. Arinaitwe
Festus. Upon completion
of the purchase, this new principal with assistance from the natives of the area
and a few foreign friends of his injected some money in the construction of more
classrooms, dormitories and administrative offices at the college site. With the new
headmaster in 2005 a step was taken to register the college with the Uganda
Ministry of Education which was met with success and the college was confirmed
as an Ordinary and Advanced Level Secondary college with registration number PSS/G/40. Later on in
2006, with the efficient management provided by the new administrative staff,
the college secured a UNEB centre
number (U1979) for both “O” and “A”
levels authorizing it to conduct both ordinary and advanced levels final exams
from the college. Indeed since the change of ownership, the college has been progressing in all aspects including academics, discipline, size of the staff, co-curricular activities among students as well as the students’ population. |
