According to head teacher of the school, Mr Godfrey Ssema, who confirmed the incident, the young girl alerted the invigilator who called colleagues and rushed the girl to a nearby medical centre.
When contacted by Daily Monitor, the girl’s parents, told them their daughter’s pregnancy was caused by last year’s Covid-19 lockdown.
