London College
Sponsored by our friends in London, London College is a special institution of high quality learning
meticulously designed to give a unique flavour to the current Ugandan education
system. It is just a five-minutes' drive from the Creamland Campus of St. Lawrence,
along Masaka Road. Fees are quite affordable, because the college is adequately subsidized. On a
conical shaped hill overlooking a green plain with a cool breeze on sunny afternoons, London
College is located on a 60 acre piece of land with a speculator view from the Trans-African High way.
The road is all tarmac from the city centre of Kampala to the college
and into the college to every building. Hence parents and visitors to this Campus
enjoy a ride free of dust or mud.
Through the London Gate, the drive up hill will lead you to a quiet environment for
real academic work with absolutely no outside interference. This, coupled with a
high quality teaching approach, is very inspirational.
