From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article discusses primary and secondary schools in Ethiopia. An incomplete list is included.
[edit] Enrolment
The gross enrolment for primary school aged children in Ethiopa was some 68.4% as of 2004. Enrolment was lower for girls, at 59.1%. [1] Factors reducing enrolment include the effects of drought [2] and for girls over 10, the fear of abduction into forced marriage [3].
Examples of efforts to increase enrolment include the construction of 48 new schools in the Semien Wollo Zone of Amhara Region in 2005. According to the zonal education department the new schools had taken on more than 41,000 new students. This raised the total enrollment to 228,990 out of an estimated 300,000 potential students.
