dc.description The study aimed to assess the contribution of community secondary school infrastructures on students` academic performance. The main objectives were; to assess the status and challenges in the provision of school infrastructures in community secondary schools, to examine the impacts of school infrastructures on students` academic performance, and finally to suggest the appropriate strategies to improve school infrastructures. The study adopted both quantitative and qualitative research approaches. A descriptive research design was employed. Ten schools were sampled from fifteen secondary schools of the targeted population of the area through probability sampling method whereby one hundred (100) respondents were selected. Data were collected using questionnaires, interview schedules, and documentary analysis. Quantitative data were analyzed through Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 16.0. Qualitative data was put under themes consistent with research objects and then explained. The findings from the present study revealed that in all community secondary schools studied, schools with adequate infrastructures students achieved good academic performance while those without adequate infrastructures their students` performance most of them were poor. The recommendation made include; the government to review its focus on the way communities participate in their school contributions. The suggestions for further study research made include; the specific aspect of infrastructure funding such as adequacy, accountability and equity should be established in the same or different districts in Tanzania.
