Praecip is a school-finding portal for Uganda. Parents come here to choose a school they can stand by. Schools come here to be found, understood and chosen. The two needs are different, the answers, deliberately, share a single source of truth.

What both sides share
Verdicts and 12-axis ratings are written by editors who can't see who's paying. Subscriptions fund the work but never decide it.
Every figure carries a tag, school-verified, public exam result, parent-submitted, editorially estimated. No mystery numbers.
UNEB, Cambridge, IB, French Bac, Montessori, CBSE, UBTEB, and the cross-curriculum entrants every school actually sees.
A school's value is shaped not only by what happens in the classroom, but also by the people a child learns with, the alumni they can look up to, and the networks that may open doors later. Praecip helps make these signals easier for more parents to understand, not just those already inside the right conversations.
We frame alumni networks as a real-world school-choice factor that should be transparent to all parents, never a marker of who belongs.
University and company marks are added as schools and alumni contribute them.

Praecip is a school discovery platform that helps parents find, compare and contact schools using structured school profiles.
Because school information is scattered across outdated websites, social media, WhatsApp groups, public records and word of mouth. We bring this information together into one parent-friendly source.
Praecip includes school directory functionality, but it is more than a directory. It is designed to become a single source of truth for school discovery.
Information may come from schools, Praecip research, publicly available sources, parent submissions, social media or other sources. Praecip uses verification and source labels to show how information should be understood.
No. Some information is verified, some is publicly sourced, some is parent-submitted, and some may be awaiting verification. Praecip shows labels to make this clear.
Yes. Schools can claim their profiles and update important information such as fees, admissions, photos, facilities, social links, contact details, performance highlights and alumni information.
Alumni networks are an important part of how many parents evaluate schools. They can help families understand a school's long-term outcomes, social capital and opportunity pathways.
For the MVP, reviews may be unverified and may include anonymous submissions. Praecip clearly labels reviews and provides reporting tools.
Yes. Praecip supports direct contact options, including WhatsApp inquiry routing where school contact details are available.
Praecip is designed to make school discovery accessible to parents. Any future premium features can be explained separately.
Most people land here as a parent first and a school representative second. Send us a note describing your situation, we'll point you to the right page and the right person on the team.
