GGABA, UGANDA: Pupils at Saint Denis Ssebugwawo Secondary School in the Kampala suburb of Ggaba take notes 23 March 2007. The Ugandan government has recently launched the Universal Secondary Education (USE) program, enabling children at certain schools to attend the first year of secondary education free of school fees, with the initiative designed to provide further free schooling through the remaining years of secondary education. Almost 180,000 children have signed up for the project in more than 1,000 pilot schools across the country with some 10,000 teachers, according to a head count released by the Ugandan government at the end of April, one month after the scheme began.
