INTRODUCTION
Present day Iganga High School was started way back in 1967 as Vithalidas Haridas Primary School by Asians living in Uganda at the time. It later became a secondary school in the name of Vithalidas Haridas Secondary School. With the expulsion of Asians in 1972, the school was allocated to Mr H.E Kibuuka and Mr. S. Mulumba.It later was handed over to government in 1976 and it was then that it dropped the primary school status and the Indian name to become IGANGA HIGH SCHOOL. It was elevated to an ‘A’ level school status in 1986.Being a government school, the government of Uganda paid the teachers’ salaries and financed development expenditure until 2007 when government policy changed. It now pays only the teachers’ salaries. The running costs and infrastructural development rests on parents.
Teaching And Learning Programmes
Iganga High School has a well structured teaching and learning programme, constantly under review. The Deputy Headteachers charged with the office of Academics; Mr Nkwanga Chris, Mr Baganzi Paul and Mr Nabongo Simon Peter, coordinate the Academic programmes and activities with the two Directors of Studies; Mr.Tigawalana Eriot and Mr Mulungwa Fred, together with the Heads of Department, and Subject Teachers monitor and carry out the teaching activities in the school. The class teachers and subject teachers account for the students’ academic performance at every level of the stream. We normally demand for this accountability during organized academic assemblies.
