All senior four candidates of Nyakasura school in Fort Portal have been ordered to vacate the school premises for alleged indiscipline and causing confusion.
In his October 5th, 2022 letter to parents of all senior four candidates, the school head teacher, Rev Richardson Alinda, says that in consultation with other stakeholders the administration decided that all S.4 students immediately leave school.
The letter indicates how the students have for long been indisciplined and caused confusion in the school on the night of October 4, 2022.
In the letter, Rev, Arinda tasks the students to disclose the ring leaders of the incident before October 10 warning that those who fail to name at least one ring leader may find it difficult to be readmitted.
The parents are expected to report to the school on October 10 for a meeting together with their children.
Sources within the school told URN that the decision to suspend the students came after some Senior four students assaulted the security guard on Tuesday night.
According to the source, the security guard caught some students with a mobile phone planning to escape from the school premises at night and he confiscated the phone.
This didnt go down well with the students who mobilized their classmates and assaulted the guard and recovered the mobile phone.
This incident raised commotion and confusion in the entire school. The suspension of the candidates comes a few days before they sit their final Uganda Certificate of Education examinations that will commence on October 14 with the briefing.
Nyakasura school was founded by Scotsman Ernest Ebohard Calwell, a retired naval officer, in 1926.
