| Summary: | In 2009, Ethiopia joined the Russia
Education Aid for Development (READ) trust fund program, the
goal of which is to help countries improve their capacity to
design, carry out, analyze, and use assessments for improved
student learning. As part of the READ trust fund program,
and in order to gain a better understanding of the strengths
and weaknesses of its existing assessment system, Ethiopia
participated in a formal exercise to benchmark this system
under The World Bank’s systems approach for better education
results (SABER) program. SABER is an evidence based program
to help countries systematically examine and strengthen the
performance of different aspects of their education systems.
The SABER student assessment framework is built on the
available evidence base for what an effective assessment
system looks like. The framework provides guidance on how
countries can build more effective student assessment
systems. The framework is structured around two main
dimensions of assessment systems: the types and purposes of
assessment activities and the quality of those activities. |
