School-Based Sexual and Reproductive Health Services for Prevention of Adolescent Pregnancy in the Hoima District, Uganda: Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial

Uganda has persistently had a high adolescent pregnancy prevalence; 25% for the last
10 years. This protocol presents the design of a Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial (CRCT) to
investigate the effectiveness of School-Based Sexual and Reproductive Health (SBSRH) interventions
on pregnancy prevention among school girls aged 15–19 years in the Hoima District, Uganda.
18 secondary schools (clusters) will be selected using cluster sampling and allocated 1:1 into the control
or intervention group stratified by geographical location. 1080 (60 in each cluster) participants/girls
aged 15–19 years will be selected using simple random sampling
