Uganda's legal education system is getting a massive shakeup after officials announced exam results and confirmed plans to split up how lawyers get trained and tested. About 1,578 people passed the bar entrance test out of 2,277 who showed up, but the training center can only handle 1,500 spots, which has been causing a traffic jam for years.

The government greenlit a new law that would create a separate testing body called NLEC, basically letting multiple schools teach the bar course while one central organization handles all the exams. The Attorney General is supposed to finalize the bill and send it to the Cabinet after getting feedback from legal people and making sure it vibes with education policy stuff.

Officials say this should clear the bottleneck at the Law Development Centre, which has been the only place allowed to train lawyers up until this point. The draft law is already making the rounds for comments before the final push.
