ABSTRACT
This study was set out to determine the impact of government spending on
development of Government primary schools physical infrastructures. Specifically,
the research was undertaken to find out the attitude of stakeholders towards
Government spending in primary education, to determine the level of Government
funding for physical infrastructure, to know how the funds for physical infrastructure
are managed by a relevant authority and to determine the level of development of
primary schools physical infrastructure in terms of quality and capacity.
The study adopted case study design and cross-sectional data collected from 68
randomly selected respondents from 34 schools located in Morogoro Municipal
Council to obtain relevant data for the survey. Data were collected through
administered questionnaires and key informant interview. SPSS program was used
for analysing quantitative data; whereby descriptive statistics and multiple regression
analysis were carried out.
The results of the study show that, to a certain extent there is a slightly positive
impact of government spending in primary school physical infrastructure since
respondents mentioned some achievements obtained from government fund. The
actual amount of money reaching schools for capitation grants is clearly much less
today compared to increase in enrolments of pupils. .
In overall, the level of development of primary school physical infrastructures is not
adequate enough; the numbers of classrooms, latrines and staff houses constructed in
the surveyed schools are too small compared to the actual demands. Based on these
findings, it is recommended that the budget be increased. The funding should also be
based on actual requirements of schools. The full amount of capitation grants
stipulated in the policy should reach schools in a predictable and timely manner.
Governments and stakeholders in educational sector should seek for the
improvement of physical structures and facilities by providing more essential ones
and
repairing
the
damaged
ones

teaching/learning in pre-schools
