German Embassy School Addis Ababa (DBSAA) serves over 300 students from Kindergarten to the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme on a campus within the German Embassy grounds. The school teaches the German curriculum across Kindergarten, Primary, and Secondary, with English instruction to promote multilingualism. Kindergarten groups of 16–20 learners are led by German-speaking educators alongside Ethiopian teaching assistants. Primary School (grades 1–4) enrolls around 105 students in small classes of about 15, delivering the German curriculum supplemented by English. Secondary School (grades 5–10) has about 100 students in classes of 12–15 and follows the German state of Thuringia's framework. The international Baccalaureate Diploma Programme is offered as a two-year pre-university option and IB accreditation was achieved in 2014. Facilities include a library, on-site health services, and a cashless cafeteria. Extracurriculars span science, arts, sports, and service, with cultural exchanges and a German School Association supporting student leadership and community engagement today.
