On 23rd and 24th April 2025, Uwezo Uganda, together with other key education stakeholders participated in a validation exercise organised by National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC) in regards to the Primary Curriculum Framework, at Kololo Senior Secondary School. The exercise aimed at gathering valuable insights and feedback on the ongoing primary curriculum framework review.

The review aims to create a more impactful and tailored curriculum that enhances Ugandan primary school learners' readiness for secondary education and the world of work.

During the validation exercise, the stakeholders applauded NCDC upon the well-crafted document and noted its emphasis on integrating life skills and values in the curriculum. The stakeholders further noted that, going forward, parents should be actively involved as key participants in the framework. They also highlighted the importance of well-structured teacher training programs to ensure all educators are fully aligned with the proposed changes.
