Released on UNEB Website are sample test papers as part of our continuous assessment tool for the New Lower Secondary Curriculum (NLSC).

During a two-day stakeholder meeting held in Kampala on March 18, 2024, Mr. Dan Odongo, the Executive Director, highlighted the purpose of these sample materials. He explained that they are designed to guide schools on the new assessment formats for Competency-Based Assessment (CBA).

“While these tools provide schools with guidance on the assessment process, it’s important to note that the sample papers are preliminary representations of what may be included in the end-cycle assessment. The final scenarios are expected to differ,” Odongo stated.

Ismael Mulindwa, Director for Basic and Secondary Education at the Ministry of Education and Sports, emphasized the relevance of the meeting, noting its focus on key stakeholders involved in the NLSC implementation.

Florence Buyinza Agola, Manager of Examinations Development, highlighted the overarching goal of the new curriculum: to nurture lifelong learners capable of adapting to a changing world. She stressed the importance of holistic learning, along with the need for valid and reliable assessment methods, to produce quality graduates.

The meeting was well-attended by senior officials from the Ministry of Education and Sports, including commissioners, assistant commissioners, as well as ministry and regional inspectors from the Directorate of Education Standards (DES), among others.
