3. Background and Justification

Education is the corner stone for any development of the countries in general as
well for individual in particular. It is essential instruments to bring change in
human mind and it helps to improve the life of the society at whole. To provided
equality, equity and the relevance of education fulfilling the necessary resources is
mandatory. So without supplementary materials and equipment’s teaching and
learning process are very difficult. Therefore, such necessary inputs, visionary
school leaders, qualified teachers and standardized learning rooms,laboratory,
library and different instructional materials are not available in the school as a
demands this due to shortage of financial resources. Education in Ethiopian policy
where governed the participation of community, stakeholders and NGOs to share
challenges of education expenditure in order to accomplish the objectives of new
education policy. And alsowithout collaboration of such institutions, and other
concerned bodies promoting the general education quality improvement program
cannot be achieved successfully. In relation to this, there are a number of problems
that needs to be improved through collaborativeparticipation of the society in

4
Gambella Secondary and Preparatory School. These are Lack of school
clinic ,Shortage of text books, Lack of library, Shortage of desks, Shortage of
laboratory chemicals and equipment’s are the obstacles in my school that affect
teaching -learning activities in the school and influence the academic performance
of the students. From these problems the most serious problem is lack of school
library.Because of this problem more students are not accessible to use the
librarycannot have the place to read and to refer the books during the exam time is
very difficult for the students. The purpose of this project is to improve students’
academic performance through constructing standardized library. Therefore,
Gambella Region is found in western part of Ethiopia, and it far from Addis Ababa
777km.The town is divided by the biggest river of Baro and the whether condition
of the town is mostly hottest. In addition to this,ingambella region there are five
indigenous ethnic groups. These are Agnuwa, Nuer, Majang, Komo, and Opo and
other highlanders also live in this region. Although, Gambella Secondary &
Preparatory School is found at the center of the town. Generally, to overcome this
problem in our school constructing new library for the students is very important in
this time. To improve the existing problem all stakeholders and concerned bodies
are be part of the the problem and can have contribution in the solving of this
problem in our school.
