dc.description This study investigated the impact of motivation on the performance of Community secondary school teachers in Mufindi district. Specifically, the study sought to find out whether motivation of teachers had any effect on their morale to perform work and; the effects of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation on the performance of teachers. A cross sectional survey design approach was adopted for the study with both qualitative and quantitative approaches. A total sample of 99 respondents including teachers, head teachers, District Education Officer and secretary of teachers Union (TTU) were consulted. Data were collected through semi structured interviews, questionnaires, observation and documentary review. The study reveals that, motivation packages to teachers in community based secondary schools were inadequate. This was evident in the non-availability of residential accommodation, lack of extra allowance inadequate salary and poor recognition and respect from the community as well lack of enough resources to ensure incentives to teachers, In order to improve teacher’s motivation and performance, the study recommended increase in the salary of secondary school teachers to match the increased cost of living, there should be provision of accommodation to teachers, and extra allowances to attribute good performance among teachers. The study concluded that in order to improve the quality of secondary education and teacher effectiveness in Tanzania, motivation is not an option, but rather a central issue that needs to be prioritized.
