Kiswa Nursery and Primary School History
Kiswa Nursery and Primary School was established in response to the growing demand for accessible education in Kampala’s urban villages. Initially, church members volunteered as teachers, cooks, and helpers to run the school. Over time, financial support from the UK enabled the school to pay staff and provide formal training.
Affiliated with the Baptist Union of Uganda Education Network, the school continues to expand its capacity and strives to build a permanent facility to accommodate more students and provide a sustainable learning environment.
