The Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB) Executive Director Dan Odongo has revealed that female candidates performed better than their male counterparts in the 2023 Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE).
He made the revelation while releasing the UACE results on March 7, 2024, at State House Uganda.
A total of 110,553 candidates registered for the 2023 UACE examination from 2,102 centres compared to 97,890 candidates from 1,969 centres in 2022. This is an increase of 12,663 candidates (12.9%).
Of these, 47,226 (42.7%) were females and 63,339 (57.3%) were males. Candidates who appeared for the examination were 109,488, compared to 96,557 in 2022. Of these, 46,860 (42.8%) were females and 62,628 (57.2%) were males.
According to Odongo, although female candidates are fewer in number proportionally, they performed better than their male counterparts.
“The percentage passes at the upper levels (3P and 2P) are higher, while the percentage passes at the lower levels and failure rate among female candidates is lower than for the males. This has been the observed trend in the last three years,” he noted.
The list is based, primarily on the number of candidates with 20 points out of 20 points in each school.
Based on these criteria, these are the top 1000 schools in the country in order of rank:
