Figure 4.28 .shows that Uganda’s NER hovered between 84.5%­90% from 2000 to 2004. From 2004, the
ratio improved gradually from 90.01%% (male 92.51%; female 87.6%) to 95.5% (male 95.1%; female
95.9%) in 2012. The current sector performance gap is 4.5 percent only (male 4.9%; female 4.1%) an
indication that the targeted 100% is likely to be met across gender within the remaining three years to
2015.
Trends in the proportion of pupils that enroll in P.1 who reach P.5 (Survival Rate to P.5)
Survival rate measures the holding power and internal efficiencyof an education system. It illustrates
the situation regarding retention of pupils from one grade to another, and conversely the magnitude
of drop­out and repetition by grade. As a result, the implementation of the UPE programme and
Quality Enhancement Initiatives, the size of the cohorts of pupils that enroll in P.1 and successively
reach P.5. Figure 4.29 summaries progress made by the sector in the last four years towards
improving survival rate to P.5.
