Students following the Indian CBSE curriculum in Uganda have posted outstanding results in the recent Grade 10 examinations. Held primarily at Delhi Public School International Kampala, the exams align with India’s NCERT standards and are overseen by the Central Board of Secondary Education.
Out of 58 candidates, 20—about 34.5 percent—scored above 90 percent. The school’s average mark stood at 82.7 percent, highlighting a strong group of high achievers.
Leading the pack was Sai Deepthi Dudyala with 98 percent, followed by Anay Manoj Ganmote at 97.2 percent. Isha Suresh Menon and Sure Sankari Sreshta both earned 97 percent. Other notables included Kartik Singh Baghel and Sreeram Ramkumar (96.4 percent), Raghunath Vijay Shivansh (95.2 percent), and Sharvi Udit (95 percent).
The school celebrated the success, praising the students’ dedication and congratulating all participants. These exams serve as a crucial step toward senior secondary education and subject choices in the CBSE system.
Harriet Ssenkali, Commissioner for Private Schools at Uganda’s Ministry of Education, emphasized that while international curricula like CBSE originate abroad, local schools must secure licensing, inspections, and approval from the National Curriculum Development Centre. She also mentioned ongoing work on a national qualifications framework to align foreign credentials with Uganda’s system.
CBSE remains one of several global options in Uganda, including Cambridge and IB, gaining popularity in Kampala’s private sector for their international recognition.
