At Horizon International School Jinja, school life extends far beyond the classroom. We are dedicated to supporting the physical, emotional, academic, and social wellbeing of every student.
Our Psychological Counselling and Guidance Department plays a vital role in our school community. Through structured guidance programmes, one-to-one counselling, and proactive pastoral care, the department ensures that students feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout their school journey.
Our aim is to nurture learners who are:

Developing self-awareness and a positive sense of identity.
Independent
Yet responsible, capable of managing their own learning journey.
