Encourage more girls to study science subjects

Daily Monitor Thursday May 13 2021 Senior Six students are finally home, after completing their Uganda Advanced Certificate of Education (UACE) exams. Data from Uneb indicates that 98,393 candidates were registered for the 2020 UACE exams. Out of these, girls were 41,129, which constituted only 41.8 per cent.  Considering the fact that at primary level, the number of girls registering and sitting for PLE is more than boys means that there is a high drop-out rate among the girls. As things stand currently, in our education, the higher you go, the smaller the number of girls.  Apart from the small of girls in higher levels of education, especially A-Level and university, there is also the issue of small number of girls studying STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) courses. In A-Level today, few girls are studying science subject combinations. Consequently, only a few girls are admitted to STEM courses at university.
