Our History

Makindye Junior Academy was founded in 2005 with a vision to provide quality primary education to the children of Makindye and surrounding areas. What started as a small classroom with just 30 students has grown into a thriving educational institution serving over 500 students.

Over the years, we have consistently maintained high academic standards while nurturing the holistic development of our students. Our commitment to excellence has earned us recognition as one of the leading primary schools in Kampala.

Today, we continue to build on our strong foundation, embracing modern teaching methods while preserving the values that have made us successful for nearly two decades.
