Problem Indicators
In the proposed site in Sheema District, Kibingo Town Council, Nyarweshama
ward there are three primary schools and the nearest secondary school is
6-7km away. This implies that children have to trek such a distance in
search for education. To be in time these young stars wake up very early, as
early as 4:00AM to start the walk to school and return home late in the night;
leaving no adequate time to rest and help parents.
Many youths today engage in bad habits of drug use, rape and robbery
due to idleness and laziness. There is a dire need to train the youths in small
scale ventures to propel their career development potentials in future. The
proposed school IT, sports, music, agriculture, religious geared activities and
counseling sessions will help them rehabilitate their thinking. These habits
also concern the surrounding communities- they will also benefit from these
services.
In some districts and regions, religious divisions still exist because there
has been no forum to inculcate togetherness starting from the youth stage.

Description
3
The proposed secondary school site is Nyarweshama Ward, Kibingo town
council, Sheema District, Western Uganda. This is a new development
following according Sheema County a district status two years ago. The
proposed site is 2km from the Mbarara-Kasese Highway with well-maintained
road network, electricity, telephone and water facilities. The site is situated
1km from Mukinga Primary School, 700m from Kagongi Primary school and
2km from Rwamujojo Primary school. It is also 7km from Kabwohe town as
the nearest commercial town. Nyarwesahama Ward is dominantly Christian
who practice and earn a living from agriculture. This ward has also had so
many orphans due to AIDS and other disadvantaged families who have zeal
to educate their children but constrained by socio-cultural-economic factors.
Although not severely hit by epidemics such as cholera, malaria and others,
there is dire need to increase awareness among populations to keep alert of
some preventive measures to these attacks. More so, the ward is steadily
developing with establishment of milling machines, medical facilities among
others. The choice of the site was further guided by the gentle landscape,
proximity with electricity, road and water infrastructures; and fair distance
distributions among the surrounding primary schools. To achieve the set
dream by the proposed secondary school, the following will be the means
through which the school will start and develop into an admirable place to
study.
Effective Education Service delivery: The school will have the following: a
state of the art computer laboratory with 60 computers connected to the
internet for the start; a 200 capacity library with 100 text books, available to
all students and teachers; attract competent teachers who will be oriented
and trained about the school philosophy so that they are in position to guide
the students along the way; source for these teachers from the surrounding
schools by offering attractive incentives and if need be technical expertise
shall be borrowed from as far as Kampala offering transport, per Diem and
accommodation; each combination with its own set of teachers so that there
is no break in the teaching-learning process; provide attractive meals (i.e.
break tea and lunch)
Career development: It is through research that new ideas are created and
shared for teachers to get more innovative. At Hill Top Academy (HTA) all
teachers will be obliged to conduct some research, disseminate their findings
and awards will be given to those who will excel in this exercise. A fund will
be instituted for research and publications. At HTA we believe such an
4
initiative may go far in orienting the young stars (students) into conceiving
and conducting advanced researches when they join the universities.
School sustainability: The school will seat on a well surveyed piece of land
whose land title is already secured. While the major funding source will be
the school fees, side assistance from personal earnings, friends, and partners
will supplement the school budget. The school will be growing its own food
and rearing animals to feed both students and staff and submission of
fundable projects in partnership with other public sectors; all candidate
students shall be obliged to join boarding section as the rest of the students
return home; construction of a borehole and underground tank from where
water can be pumped into reservoir tanks for science laboratory use, cooking
and lavatories.
Other supporting avenues: the school will acquire three cows, five goats, five
piggeries, 20 chickens for the farmers’ club (courtesy of the managing
director) to help the students, especially in farmers’ club to gain some skills
of rearing and earning from agriculture. Three sporting activities each with a
tutor will be instituted to keep students busy outside class times. There will
5
also be social clubs and music room that will be equipped with modern
instruments (i.e. drums, rattles, brass band, keyboard, Dungu, etc.) for
students to relax their minds. During this time all students will be obliged to
choose where to be and dormitories shall be closed till 6:00pm; the school
will also establish prayer rooms where worshipping shall take place: for
religion is a means of instilling morals in young people. School prefects and
club leaders will as well be elected democratically for various posts in an
effort to promote good democracy and governance. As students come with
various ailments and other medical complications, the school will have a
clinic for first aid before making referrals to more advanced medical
facilities. The same clinic will help the school raise funds by serving the
community at relatively low costs in form of cost sharing. The school intends
to purchase drugs and the community only pays for consultations.
Vocational Training: Sessions will be arranged for both girls and boys in
various vocational skills such as saloon, carpentry and sewing; in selected
days of the week. Each student will be allotted a section of his/her choice;
especially for boarding scholars to equip them with skills they can extend in
future. These services shall also help the youths around who could not
proceed with education to start up something: hence reducing idleness,
begging and theft.
