2027 Admissions Opening Soon Join a community of excellence at Viva College School.

Academics

Learning that goes beyond the classroom.

We follow the Uganda National Curriculum at O Level and A Level, and blend it with research, practical projects, ICT and entrepreneurship.

Our curriculum

A national curriculum, taught with purpose

Our teachers go beyond covering the syllabus. Learners carry out practical project work, laboratory experiments and research tasks that build the skills the new competence-based curriculum asks for: critical thinking, communication, creativity and problem solving.

Small-group support, regular assessment and close contact with parents help every learner keep on track.
