Background (Cont.)
By the 1960's access to education in Ethiopia was very low, only less than one-fifth (20%) of the school age population were enrolled in primary school.
Moreover, the inequity in the provision of primary education was highly visible. There were high regional and gender gaps in gross enrollment rates.

Background (Cont.)
The education system was also characterized by low quality and inefficiency. High repetition and dropout rates and low completion rates were the main futures of the education system.
Teachers were poorly prepared and lacked the skills and methodologies for teaching at the levels they are assigned.
