Ntare School is a boys' boarding secondary school located in Mbarara District, South Western Uganda with both Ordinary and Advanced levels. It ranks among the prominent schools in the country, both in academic performance and popularity.

The school is situated on the convex slope of Ntare hill at an altitude of 1400 metres above sea level. To the East, is a relatively deep valley from which the school's premises emerge. This rises gently westwards forming an extensive low lying flat topped hill with Nkokonjeru and Kamukuzi, the seat of the capital of the Kingdom of Nkore. The South West is occupied by the school's play ground in the flat bottomed valley of Kakyeka.

Ntare School is one of the first twenty (20) secondary schools in Uganda that joined the WorLD Links Schools and SchoolNet Uganda Project. Other schools in this project include King’s College Budo, Gayaza High School, St. Mary's Namagunga, St. Mary’s College Kisubi, Mengo Senior School, Namilyango College, Nabisunsa Girls, Makerere College School, among others.

BRIEF HISTORY

Ntare School was founded by a Scottish educationist, the late William Critchton (RIP) in 1956 with a small student population.

Within the first five years of its inception, the school leaped to the best five schools of Uganda. It became famous for academic excellence, discipline, sports and a unique culture of tolerance regardless of one's racial, ethnic, or religious background. Such values have been cherished to the present.

The first Deputy Headmaster of the school from 1956 to 1971 was Mr. Brian Remmer, followed by Mr. Jedd Bangizi from 1971 to 1977 and who was the first African Headmaster of the School.

Currently, the school has a population of 1160 students ranging from forms one to six from all over Uganda.
