Academic progress is at the heart of our mission at Kampala Quality Primary School, and we are dedicated to providing an environment where learning is not only encouraged but celebrated. We believe that a well-rounded education extends beyond the classroom, encompassing a rich fabric of activities and initiatives that nurture the minds and skills of our students. Below are some key aspects of our approach to academic progress:

Our detailed report cards not only help us gauge our performance as a school but also promote healthy competition among our students.
- Homework and Assessment: Regular homework and assessments are integral to our teaching methodology. These assignments serve as opportunities for revision, reinforce learning and help students track their progress.
- Teacher-Student Ratio: With a teacher-student ratio of 2:1, we prioritize individualized attention and support, ensuring that every student receives the guidance they need to excel.
- Wall of Fame: Our "Wall of Fame" proudly displays the names of our best-performing students, serving as both recognition and motivation for students to strive for academic excellence.
- Reading Days: We set aside dedicated days for individual and group reading, fostering a love for literature and expanding our students' horizons.
- Spelling Quizzes and Topical Tests: Weekly spelling quizzes and topical tests promote confidence, sharpen minds, and enhance spelling abilities and knowledge retention.
