Welcoming Every Child with Open Arms

At Kampala Junior Academy, we believe that every child deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive. That’s why we proudly follow an open admissions policy — inviting learners from all backgrounds to join our school community at any point in the academic year.

We offer a complete educational journey through both our Nursery and Primary School sections, supporting children from ages 3 to 13. Whether your child is just starting in preschool, or joining our primary school, we are committed to making the admissions process simple, accessible, and inclusive.

🎓 When to Apply:

While we accept applications all year round, our main nursery school enrollment and primary school admissions window runs from October to January. Families are especially encouraged to apply during this time for a smoother placement process — especially for children joining Nursery or Primary.

🎓 Age & Grade Placement:

We take a thoughtful approach to placing children in the right grade. Age, previous school experience, and academic readiness are all considered to ensure learners are supported and challenged appropriately.

For new pupils, we may request:

✹ Previous school transcripts.

✹ A short assessment or placement test (Primary).

This ensures your child is placed in a grade level that matches their abilities and gives them the best chance to succeed.
