Evaluation "Mengo School drives its own development"

 
The evaluation: “Creating Change in the Education Sector: The Catalytic Factors about Mengo:
Mengo Secondary School is regarded to be amongst the best secondary schools in Uganda. It is based in Kampala and caters to students in secondary school, as well as middle school. Mengo is unique in that as one of the few schools which combine both academic and vocation training approaches it has come to see itself as a pioneer. The pioneer self-perception of the school makes it very open to new ideas, and innovation. While on the one hand the school does not have a clear and organized approach to introducing new ideas, on the other it allows for new ideas to be generated in an ongoing basis. For Mengo, the exchange with Norway, through FK, is one of many different programs with partners. Each program that Mengo is involved with is intended to support the schools ability to think innovatively and progress. Therefore, the FK exchange supports change, but does not drive it. Rather Mengo School drives its own development and seeks nourishment for this development. Fk has been one type of nourishment that Mengo has benefited from.
