This study aimed at examining the criteria employed in allocating School Feeding Program [SFP] and its subsequent effects in primary schools of Tanzania taking Manyoni district, Kintinku Ward as a case study. This study specifically focused on examining the criteria employed to allocate SFP, determine the effects of SFP on performance, enrollment, attendance and drop out among students and challenges affecting the program as such.
The study adopted cross sectional design with a case study meant to get in depth data. Respondents such as teachers, members of school committee and students were randomly selected while Ward Education Officers were purposively selected. Data were collected using survey method where interviews were conducted to 64 pupils and 28 village officials using structured questionnaire. The analysis of data was done using SPSS where likert scale was used to analyze the criteria. The study found out that schools which had low performance, high food insecurity, far from village and low rainfall had high chance to get SFP. The study found that SFP had significant positive effects on the student performance, attendance and decline in drop out. There are a number of challenges that face the SFP such as inadequate supply of water and low community willingness to contribute food. It is therefore, recommended that the government should ensure that the community is sensitized to contribute food for education and primary schools be allowed to have income generating activities[IGA] to make them self reliant so that the school Feeding Pogram [SFP] could be implemented with much fan and fare . |
