Top 7 A Level Schools in Kampala

This guide is written by Tutopiya’s education experts to help families compare A Level options.

Kampala has a small but important cluster of international and independent schools offering Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel A Levels at senior level. This guide highlights those A Level routes and excludes full IB-only and American-only schools, even when they’re popular.

How this list is ranked (and what “A Level results data” really means)

Helpful datapoints when comparing A Level options in Kampala include:

• A*/A and A*/A/B rates across recent cohorts
• Subject breadth, especially in STEM and Business/Economics
• Number of entries per subject and approximate cohort size
• University destinations in Uganda, the region, and globally
• Accreditation status with Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel

Where detailed statistics are limited, parents rely on reputation, facilities, and exam-support structures.
