A study on the Management of Teacher’s Motivation in Tanzania Education Sector
was done at Temeke Municipal Council in Dar-Es-Salaam City. The general
objective was to investigate the management of teacher’s motivations in education
sector, the specific objectives were: to determine the perception on the status of types
of teacher’s motivations that exist in the working area; to assess the impact of
teachers motivations on students learning; to investigate barriers in the management
of teachers motivations; and, to examine the extent of the education management
success in solving the issue of teacher’s motivations.
Both Theoretical and empirical literature were reviewed and the research gap which
was determined in the proposal stage was covered from the data analysis and
discussion in chapter four. The research design used was survey study design,
whereby, the population for the study was 82 people within which sampled
population consisted of 82 respondents. Due to the fact that the study involved 82
people, the sampling procedure involved Census where N=n, within which all the
sampled population was reached. To avoid biasness, equal chance strategy was
employed to ensure clear representative sample of the rest of the surveyed
population. The selection of respondents was based on age, gender, marital, work
experiences and occupational statuses.
The data collection methods used was primary and secondary data, and data
collection instrument used was questionnaire. Data analysis was done by the aid of
computer software that is Excel and SPSS based on study objectives. The overall
research findings indicate that, the extents of School Management, Temeke
Municipality and MoEVT in solving Teachers’ Motivational problems are extremely
poor. In addition, in all outlined twenty three barriers that hamper the effective
management of Teachers’ Motivations, the study revealed that, the leading barriers
were low budget from the MoEVT, poor management and planning system,
