School association & board of directors

The German School Association in Ethiopia

The German School Association in Ethiopia is a registered association and the governing body of the DBSAA. Its members are friends and supporters, parents and former students, who thus actively participate in school life and make a valuable contribution to shaping the future of our school. At the annual general meeting, the members elect the board of directors (six representatives) for a period of two years. Only members of the school association are eligible for election. Not eligible for election are teachers and employees as well as their family members/registered partners and members of the school’s parents’ council.

Purpose and aim of the association and the school

  • The establishment and maintenance of a general school including kindergarten/preschool for German-speaking students.
  • Providing its students with a school education, which is based on German educational objectives using German and KMK recognised curricula and aiming at German high school degrees or international degrees that are recognized by KMK in Germany.
  • The task of familiarising the students with the cultures of Ethiopia and Germany also through extracurricular activities. To cultivate human and cultural relations and to promote mutual understanding.
  • The school and the kindergarten are open to students of non-German nationality, if they have a sufficient command of the German language or acquire it in a reasonable time to follow the lessons.
  • The structure of the school is based on this objective and will be agreed upon in cooperation with the Federal Foreign Office, with the participation of the Embassy of Federal Republic of Germany.
