Baluku added that the books, copies of the recently published Guide to O’ level English authored by Exevia Kule, a teacher of English language who is also an old boy of the institution, will go a long way in helping learners comprehend English better and subsequently boost their performance in the rest of the subjects. He courted the learners especially those in the candidate class to maximally make use of books.
William Bwambale, the Deputy Head teacher at the school said the newly acquired books will enrich the library and increase the resources at the disposal of students. Bwambale, who also revealed that the school’s enrollment has risen from about 500 learners to more than 700, expressed gratitude to the Kisangara Education and committed to using the books to better the performance of the 52 year -old education facility.
