About

This is who we are

Kampala Adult Learners' Institute serves adults, drop-outs, working professionals and parents, who left formal secondary school early and want to complete UCE or UACE. Evening and weekend timetables, condensed two-year tracks, and a strong on-ramp to Ugandan universities and polytechnics.

Today it serves 410 students alongside 34 teaching staff.

A message

From the director of studies

Our learners come to us in their twenties, thirties and forties. They are tired, brave, and astonishingly motivated. We meet them where they are and walk with them to the qualifications they always wanted.

The Praecip verdict

A real second chance, efficient and respectful adult-paced UNEB completion

What stands out

KALI is what an adult learner actually needs: condensed timetables, evening sessions, no childish nonsense, focused exam preparation. Results are impressive given the learner profile.

Where it falters

It is not a comprehensive school, no extracurriculars, modest premises, no pretensions of being one. Adult learners targeting purely the qualification will find it efficient; younger learners with social/extracurricular needs should look elsewhere.
