Amuru School Faces Closure Over Alleged Repeated Sexual Assault On Pupils

By Tolit Ivan

The future operation of St Anthony Padua Nursery and Primary School, a private school in Amuru District, hangs in balance following repeated sexual assault on pupils by teachers.

On Thursday Juma Onencan Becker (31), the school head teacher, was arrested by the community for sexually assaulting a 14 year old primary six pupil of the same school.

Police has since preferred charges of aggravated defilement and aggravated trafficking against the suspect.

In March, 2022 two teachers of the same school were also arrested for sexually harassing girl-child of the same school.

Okello Apollo Kagwa, the Secretary Education and Sport, said the district is considering closing the school because it has become unsafe for pupils.
