MISSING PLE SCRIPTS OF INTEGRATED SCIENCE FOR LEARNERS OF
BAMURE PRIMARY SCHOOL- SITUATION UNDER CONTROL

The Uganda National Examinations Board (UNEB) would like to assure the public that the missing PLE scripts of Integrated Science for learners of Bamure Primary School, Koboko District, have been recovered and examiners invited for marking and subsequent grading of the candidates.

As part of the quality control procedures before the release of the results, the Board had established that the scripts of 34 candidates of the said school were missing. The learners were tentatively awarded ‘ X’ as a thorough check for the scripts was being conducted at our marking centres, followed by the school. It is this investigation that yielded into the discovery of the sealed script envelop which was found intact in the lockable box for UNEB materials in the office of the Headmaster.

For avoidance of doubt, the envelope was first handed over to Koboko Central Police Station who collected it from the school, and confirmed that it had not been tampered with. The scripts have now been passed on to UNEB for marking.

The Board hereby `reassures the parents and candidates of Bamure Primary School, and all concerned stakeholders that the scripts will be marked expeditiously and the candidates graded in time for the selection and placement exercise.
