Draft:Urban Schools alongside Rural schools in Uganda

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The private sector in uganda has done alot of justice to its citizens but more so when it comes to the field of education; way back in the early 2000s when private schools had just come into play and the competition had become alittle stiff as compared to when government had monopoly on schools of all levels from primary to tertiary institutions and service delivery was compromised on due to the government hiring incompetent workers and however un trained aswell due to the fact that there was limited human resource and the general population was not so bulky as such to require services from quite a number of service providers and maybe the government treasury wasnot fairing on well to accomadate paying so many trained education personnels. but as day followed night the population of uganda stretched from 24Millions by 2002 to 45Millions as of late.and demand for labour was more than it's supply hence Government institutions were overwhelmed by ambiguous numbers of learners and the teacher to learner ratio had to increase from 1:50 to 1:100 and this led to deterioration of teachers performance making parents to withdraw their children from public schools with immediate effect due to their poor performance in national assessments shifting them to nearby pocket friendly private schools. This has soffer brought about numerous innovations in schools which instill hard work in learners which may entail continuously assessing learners on related examinable questions and urban schools have found a soft landing here as compared to rural schools due to factors like ;availability of required machinery, a competent and resourceful workforce, adjusting easily to the latest and recommended good teaching methods, Compliant parents task force and strategic location of schools but on the contrary rural schools offer the same services but in a modest way since there is limited compliance by parents who are the chief funders of private schools, making service delivery pretty hard since teachers are always poorly renumerated making them have a low attitude. The other limiting factor is that learners ain't exposed to alot of written material since there is no commendable machinery. And last but not least most Ugandan teachers fancy working in the Urban setting leaving the villages with teachers who ain't so creative enough to fit in a competitive environment and what bridges a big gap is the factor of salary; Urban schools in Uganda offer attractive and competitive salaries as opposed to rural schools .This therefore evidently shows why there is good performance in urban schools unlike in rural schools but for clarity; there is an unsignificant number of urban schools that perform better than urban schools since they have worked tooth and nail to adopt good teaching techniques and have good administrative skills that out compete those of their counterparts in towns bringing forth good performance
