Ugandan education authorities are increasingly concerned about the proliferation of unregistered schools run by refugee communities in and around Kampala. These schools, found in areas like Mukono and Wakiso, are operating without the necessary licenses or registration from the Ministry of Education and Sports. Officials have not yet detailed the extent of the issue or the quality of education provided in these institutions. The lack of oversight raises questions about curriculum standards, teacher qualifications, and student safety. The Ministry is expected to address the situation, but specific plans for regulation or support have not been announced. This development highlights the challenges of providing education to refugee populations and ensuring quality control within rapidly growing informal education systems.
