About international schools in Kampala, Uganda
Kampala’s premium international schools are typically English-medium campuses located in suburbs such as Lubowa, Muyenga and Bukoto, serving a mixed expatriate and Ugandan family body. Most offer British (Cambridge/UK national) programmes or one or more International Baccalaureate (PYP, MYP, DP) pathways, while a smaller number follow American or French curricula and place more emphasis on additional language provision. Tuition at these higher-end schools is above the city median - typical annual fees across Kampala sit around UGX 4,900,000, while IB programmes commonly appear in the higher fee bands (median figures are in the tens of millions of UGX per year). Admissions are usually organised around main term starts in August/September (with additional intakes in January or April at some schools), though many schools will consider rolling admissions if places are available; relocating families should plan several months ahead and check transport, immunisation and visa requirements.
