Exclusive Services

The foundational service is enrollment in the 2026 Uganda National Spelling Bee program, which allows a school to conduct its own internal competition and identify candidates for the next level. The annual subscription fee varies by school type: International Primary Schools pay 370,000 UGX, Private Primary Schools pay 150,000 UGX, Public Primary Schools pay 100,000 UGX, and an Individual Student (presumably if not part of a school enrollment) pays 50,000 UGX. For secondary schools, International Schools pay 450,000 UGX, Private Schools pay 200,000 UGX, Public Schools pay 150,000 UGX, and an Individual Student pays 70,000 UGX. This fee covers the school's participation for the year, includes access to the UNSB user manual with procedures and rules, and entitles the school's designated coordinator to free training.

The next level of service is the opportunity for school winners to advance to the District or Division competition, and subsequently for district winners and runners-up to compete in the Regional spelling bee. There is no separate fee mentioned for these levels; participation is covered by the initial annual school subscription fee paid before the deadline of June 30th, 2026. The organization facilitates these tiers of competition as part of the enrolled school's package.

The premier level of service is the qualification for the National Finals. The Regional winner advances to compete in the Uganda National Spelling Bee. This represents the culmination of the competition structure. As with the district and regional levels, access to this national competition is included within the scope of the school's paid annual subscription fee, with no additional competition fee specified for the finalists.

The UNSB offers comprehensive spelling training materials for direct purchase by schools, parents, or individual students seeking an advantage. These curated resources go beyond simple word lists to teach the "actual dynamics of spelling," including etymology, phonics, and language patterns. Available for a separate fee, these materials include workbooks, digital word packs, and practice test guides designed to systematically build proficiency and prepare spellers for the rigors of competition at every level, from school bees to the national finals.

For personalized, intensive preparation, UNSB provides dedicated online coaching sessions conducted by experienced spelling bee trainers and former champions. This service offers one-on-one or small-group virtual tutoring tailored to a speller's specific strengths and weaknesses. The coaching focuses on advanced techniques, time management, word root mastery, and the development of effective study habits, providing a competitive edge for serious contenders aiming for the national stage. Fees for this premium, personalized coaching are structured per session or as a multi-lesson package.

Expanding its mission beyond traditional school programs, the UNSB organizes exclusive spelling bee events for professionals, community groups, and service organizations like Rotary Clubs. These live, high-engagement competitions for seniors and adults serve as premier team-building or fundraising events, combining intellectual challenge with social camaraderie. The UNSB handles all logistics, including customized word lists, judging, and hosting, offering a unique and sophisticated platform for corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities or community galas, with pricing available upon request based on the scope and scale of the event.
