This curriculum prepares students for national exams and future careers. Gombe SS’s rigorous implementation ensures alignment with Uganda’s educational goals.
True education extends beyond textbooks. Our diverse co-curricular foster creativity, teamwork, and leadership, empowering students to discover their passions.
Gombe Secondary School is one of Uganda’s most prominent and high-performing mixed boarding schools. Founded in 1955, it has evolved from a small junior school into a massive “academic giant” known for balancing religious values, modern infrastructure, and strong academic results.
Gombe Secondary School has introduced practical skills teaching in four trades, namely Computer applications (ICT), Bakery and Pastry, Commercial artefacts and farming. In line with the Uganda Ministry of Education program, a learner is introduced to all the four trades in Senior one, then he/she chooses one in which they are examined in Senior three and issued with a certificate by the Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT).
This arms the learners with practical skills which enable them to employ themselves at any time instead of waiting at home for possible hiring by employers and yet jobs in public and private institutions are not enough for all candidates.
The Directorate of Industrial Training (DIT) plays a crucial role at Gombe Secondary School by assessing and certifying the practical skills acquired by students under the new Lower Secondary Curriculum (LSC) in Uganda.
The administration is supported by a large number of teaching staff (over 100 teachers have been previously reported) and non-teaching support staff.
