The task before me as Head Teacher of Kibuli Secondary School is great. I intend to be exemplary and transparent in all my actions, accountable to all our stakeholders, and committed to the institution and to motivating staff, students and all who walk with us. Working together with my staff, I hope to bring the school to new heights. Let us work together to improve Kibuli Secondary School as we “seek knowledge”.
