Abstract: This study examined the relationship between school environment and students’ retention in private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district, Uganda. The study was guided by three specific objectives; i) To examine the relationship between school infrastructure and students’ retention, ii) To examine the relationship between school culture and students’ retention, and iii) To examine the relationship between teacher support and students’ retention in private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district, Uganda. The study took on a correlational research design with a quantitative approach. A sample of 64 respondents was taken into account containing head teachers and teachers from the 4 selected private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district. Both descriptive and correlation analysis were used to answer the study phenomenon. The study revealed that there is a very strong positive and statistically significant relationship between school infrastructure and students’ retention in private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district, Uganda. The study also revealed that there is a strong positive and statistically significant relationship between school culture and students’ retention in private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district, Uganda. Further, the study revealed that there is a strong positive and statistically significant relationship between teacher support and students’ retention in private secondary schools in Bweyogerere, Wakiso district, Uganda.
