What did the Amhara Education Bureau award, and to whom?
Tikvah University and Tikvah Education reported on Tikimt 14, 2019 E.C. (24 October 2026) that the Amhara Regional Education Bureau had given awards to the top scorers in the 2018 E.C. Grade 12 examination. Both reports carry the same text.
Hidase Zemenu is the student who scored highest among women in the country. Mubarek Muhammed scored highest in the Amhara region. Each received 40,000 birr, a modern laptop, a trophy and a certificate.
The reports also say that 193 students who scored above 540 received encouragement awards and recognition. The reports do not give the names of those 193 students or the amount each of them received.
Which students does this affect?
The main awards went to the two named students. The 193 students who scored above 540 in the 2018 E.C. Grade 12 examination received encouragement awards.
The awards come from the Amhara bureau, but the reports do not say which schools or zones the winners come from. They also do not say whether the bureau plans to extend the awards to other regions or to later exam rounds.
What are the dates, and what do the awards include?
| Event | Date |
|---|---|
| Awards reported by Tikvah University and Tikvah Education | Tikimt 14, 2019 E.C. (24 October 2026) |
| Exam the awards are for | 2018 E.C. Grade 12 examination |
The reports do not give the date of the award ceremony, the dates of the exam, or where the presentation took place. None of these has been announced in the reports.
What should students and parents watch for?
- No student or parent is asked to take any action in these reports.
- The reports do not name the 193 students who received encouragement awards.
- Check the bureau's own channels for a notice on the awards. Neither report links to one.
What came before these awards?
The awards follow the 2018 E.C. Grade 12 examination, and the top rankings named here come from that result. The reports do not say when the results were released, what criteria the bureau used, or whether similar awards were given in earlier years.
Both reports are copies of one text, and neither is the bureau's own notice. The amounts and counts in this story therefore come from those two reports alone.
