About Equatorial College Ibanda

About Equatorial College Ibanda.
Equatorial College School Ibanda was founded in 2005 by Mr. Robert Kamasaka a retired teacher who served in Uganda’s education sector for more than 20 years. This was out of his concern for children especially children from families with a poor background.

      

First and most obvious is the emphasis on high-quality affordable education for rural children. With its booming information economy, Uganda is a land where a good education is often a ticket out of poverty, but it is also a land with extraordinary educational stratification: children with opportunity and means can get an excellent education, while the majority of children have access to poor schools.

Equatorial College School Ibanda we work to improve access and the quality of education supporting Uganda’s communities to achieve their future goals.

Since its inception in 2005, Equatorial College School Ibanda has worked in this area with local guardians and stakeholders to improve educational facilities and the lives of students. We continue to work diligently towards the goals we first set out for ourselves and appreciate the support from stakeholders.
