Indeed, the country has registered remarkable success stories in the sector.

 However,  performance review of Education Sector Development Plan V (ESDPV) indicated  that  8th grade  girls’ performance means their examination  result is  not satisfying  as it has been  intended  in the plan. To this effect, lately Ministry of Education (MoE) organized a field visit to media crew in some identified schools in Oromia State that registered 20 percent performance.

Importantly, as it was observed by the media crew, lack of inputs and well-trained teachers in some subject areas in   addition to   cultural and other traditional norms have lagged behind   girls’ education performance   in the visited schools.
