Despite registering positive results, Uganda's Universal Primary Education plan (UPE) faces significant unresolved challenges instigated by widespread corruption in the school system, ghost teachers and ghost schools, lack of enough infrastructure, the lack of schooling materials such as pens, pencils, lunch, and books. Ascribed to the validity of these concerns, the percentage of pupils dropping out of the UPE program is a significant concern to the Ugandan education system. This study probed the contributions of the UPE program to Uganda's economy using demographic variables such as UPE teacher's employment rates, UPE student's literacy rates, UPE student's dropout rates, and UPE student's completion rates. The investigator applied numeric archived information retrieved from the Uganda Ministry of Education and Sports facts files. The data were analyzed using Pearson's correlations, stepwise regressions, and descriptive statistical methods. The alpha level for the study was set at p < 0.05. The sampled data used for the analysis was collected between the years 2000-2015. The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) 25.0 was the appropriate software for the data analysis. The Cronbach alpha was used to measure the internal reliability of the selected research data. The analysis found statistically significant evidence to support the relationship between Universal Primary Education and UPE student's completion rates, UPE student's dropout rates, and UPE teacher's employment rates. Universal Primary Education and UPE student's literacy rates were not statistically significant. The findings of this study highlight noteworthy knowledge for scholars in the research field that warrants further investigation for future studies. The research results might provide a fair evaluation of the Universal Primary Education (UPE) program to educational leaders, donor organizations, and the Uganda Government.
