Good morning listeners, this is Radio Ankole, 99.3 FM Ntungamo, bringing you the latest updates from the education sector. The Uganda National Examinations Board, widely recognized as UNEB, has officially released its preliminary statistics concerning candidate registration for the ongoing examination cycle. These figures provide an early insight into the scale of participation in the national assessment process. According to the data made public by UNEB, an impressive total of 817,885 candidates have successfully completed their registration to partake in the examinations scheduled for this academic year. This substantial number reflects the broad engagement of students across the country in pursuing their educational qualifications. When these current registration figures are carefully compared against those from the immediately preceding examination cycle, a clear trend emerges. For the year 2024, the total number of candidates who had registered for the equivalent examinations stood at 797,444. The juxtaposition of these two sets of statistics unequivocally indicates a notable upward trajectory in candidate enrollment. Specifically, the current registration tally demonstrates a discernible percentage increase over the figures recorded in the previous year. This growth in candidate numbers underscores an expanding commitment to academic progression and the national examination framework. While the precise percentage of this increase has been highlighted by the examination body, the overarching pattern points towards a consistently growing number of learners actively participating in and preparing for these crucial academic milestones. This sustained rise in registration figures is a testament to the ongoing dedication within Uganda’s education landscape and the aspirations of its student population.
