A total of 1,433 candidates have been advised to repeat senior six after failing to obtain any principle pass in last year’s Uganda Advanced Certificate of Examination (UACE).

This was revealed by the UNEB Executive Secretary, Dan Odongo while releasing the 2019 UACE results on Thursday in Kampala.

“A total of 1,433 candidates have not been able to obtain any principle pass, hence they obtained F and are supposed to repeat,” Odongo said adding that results of 126 candidates have also been withheld.
