Kakoola high School was started in 2003 by the then Minister of Buganda Kingdom, later Member of parliament for Bamunanika constituency and currently State Minister for Higher Education, Owek. Hon. Dr. J. C. Muyingo.
His vision was to further the education of children in his ancestral area that is Kakoola village who had completed primary level from the primary school that his father had earlier started. The dream later widened to providing education and uplifting the standards of living in the constituency and the nation at large.
Kakoola high School became a government aided school under the management of the Catholic Church in 2018. The school prides in providing quality yet affordable holistic education to students from all the corners of the nation and some neighboring countries. This is evident in the school’s commitment to co-curricular activities together with the fast growing academic excellence as the school motto clearly entails.
