Company Description
Rainbow International School Uganda (RISU) is a prominent co-educational day and boarding school located in the Kansanga suburb of Kampala. Established in 1991, it has grown from a small primary school into a comprehensive institution serving approximately 800 students aged 2 to 18. The school is known for its diverse and inclusive atmosphere, hosting a multicultural community with students representing over 60 different nationalities.
The school follows the British National Curriculum across all levels, from the Early Years Foundation Stage to pre-university studies. Primary students engage with the International Primary Curriculum (IPC), while secondary students work toward internationally recognized qualifications including IGCSEs, A-Levels, and BTEC Level 3 diplomas. This academic framework is designed to foster independent learning, critical thinking, and a global outlook, ultimately preparing graduates for admission into top-tier universities worldwide.
Beyond academics, RISU offers a holistic education supported by extensive facilities on its 11-acre campus. These include specialized science and computer laboratories, music and drama rooms, and comprehensive sports infrastructure such as football pitches, basketball courts, and a 25-meter swimming pool. The school emphasizes personal development through a wide range of extracurricular activities, including sports, arts, and community service, while maintaining a strong partnership between staff and families to nurture each child’s individual potential.
