iBackground:/i Seizure is one of the most common abnormal neurologic conditions that represent the uncontrolled, abnormal electrical activity of the brain that may cause changes in the level of consciousness, behaviour, memory, or feelings. Seizure is poorly understood by the public and has been associated with numerous misconceptions and beliefs. It can disrupt daily activities, hinder educational progress, and lead to social stigma and discrimination. Since teachers have a key role in society as educators assessing their knowledge, attitude, and practice towards seizing children and knowing their gaps have a significant input in correcting the misconceptions and wrong beliefs in the public and improving the care and future life of children with seizures. iObjective:/i the aim of the study is to assess the knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) of primary school teachers towards seizing children in Jimma town, south-western Ethiopia. iMethods:/i A facility based cross-sectional study design was conducted among teachers in private and public primary schools found in Jimma town from March to December, 2023. In this study 24 governmental and 26 private primary schools were included which was selected by stratified random sampling technique. Data were collected using pre-tested and structured questionnaire. The data were entered into Epi-data 3.1 and double entry verification was made and then exported to SPSS version 25 for analysis. Logistic regression analysis was done to identify covariates associated with the outcome variable. iResult/iis/ii:/i This finding revealed that, 45.1%, 59.8% and 35.8% of study participants had good knowledge, had positive attitude and had good practice towards seizing children respectively. Factors associated with good knowledge among teachers towards seizing children was age, sex and educational status. Similarly age, genders, level of education, school type, knowledge and attitude were significantly associated with practiceand attitude of the respondents. iConclusion and recommendation:/i The majority respondents in Jimma town had poor level of knowledge, positive attitude, and poor practice towards seizing children. Generally, the current new findings will initiate further studies to limit the barrier, to disseminate appropriate information, or to improve teachers knowledge, attitude, and practice towards seizing children because there is still a student with seizure that has been treated with a negative attitude and poor practice of teachers.
