The government is still reviewing options available regarding the fate of learners who failed the 2024 Uganda Certificate of Education (UCE) exams.

The permanent secretary to the ministry of education and sports, Dr. Kedrace Turyagyenda said there are ongoing discussions, stating that they will announce a decision soon.

“The process has started but it has not ended. For government issues to come out to the general public, we would have gone through a number of stages for approval. For now, the community should know that we are thinking and working to see that we can make that provision,” Dr. Kedrace said.

Data from the Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB), indicates that about 7,000 students did not pass last year’s exams and do not qualify for a UCE certificate after they failed to obtain at least a D grade in any subject in the new grading system.

The uncertainty follows UNEB’s statement that only students who receive a certificate qualify for Senior Five. This has raised concerns over whether the affected students will be required to repeat Senior Four, return to Senior Three, or even restart from Senior One.

As the nation awaits clarity, education stakeholders are urging the ministry to provide guidance as soon as possible to avoid disruptions in the academic calendar.
