About Kibubura Girls' Secondary School

Excellence , Discipline , Leadership and Service

Est. 1981

Our History

The school was named Kibubura Secondary School in memory of Julia Kibubura who was the first woman in Uganda to take up a political leadership position as Gombolola (county) chief during the time of Galt, a colonial administrator. She died in 1905 at the hands of Rutaraka, a native of Ibanda District. The name Kibubura is derived from a Runyakitara word 'okububura' loosely translated as 'the roaring of a lion'.

Before officially gazetting Kibubura Girls' Secondary School as an O-Level boarding senior secondary school by the then Education minister on June 15, 1981, it was formerly Ibanda Integrated Primary School. It was designated as a girls' only school because at that time the girl-child education was a preserve of a few.

From humble beginnings with a single stream, the school has grown into a fully-fledged centre of academic excellence — today boasting modern science laboratories, a digital library, a vibrant sports programme, and a student body of over 1,500 girls from across Uganda.
