Abstract

Traditional formal education in Ethiopia has been offered for more than 1600 years (i.e., since the fourth century ad ). However, modern education in Ethiopia is only a century old. Various attempts were made with regard to introducing modern education in the country. Educational studies such as the Education Sector Review (ESR) and the Evaluative Research on the General Education System of Ethiopia (ERGESE) were conducted. Different curriculums were developed and implemented. Despite such efforts, the history of education, including curriculum in Ethiopia, though a vast area, has not been thoroughly studied to date (Woube, 2005). However, few studies regarding education and curriculum development in Ethiopia were made. For instance, studies by Teshome Wagaw (1979), Meaza Bekele (1966), Woube Kassaye (2002 & 2005), Solomon Areaya (2008), Feleke Desta (1990), Girma Amare (1967, 1973, & 1982 ), Tekeste Negash (1995, 2006), and Dereje Terefe (2010) could be mentioned.
