| dc.description.abstract | In this era of globalisation and technological revolution, education is considered as a first step for every human activity. It plays vital roles in the development of human capital. The Secondary Education Development Programme II (SEDP II: 2010-2015) in Tanzania, is a continuation of Secondary Education Development Programme I (SEDP I), which was implemented between 2004 and 2009, building on the national goals of secondary education provision. The purpose of this study was therefore to analyze the Management of Educational Quality in selected Public and Private Secondary Schools in Morogoro Region. The specific objectives were to: assess schools educational quality management based on educational input under SEDP II for years 2010 to 2013; examine schools educational quality management based on educational output under SEDP II for years 2010 to 2013 and assess effectiveness of Public Secondary Schools (PuSS) and Private Secondary Schools (PrSS) management tasks in the study area. Data were collected from 400 respondents‟ including: 320 students, 80 teachers and 20 key informants and various documentary sources using questionnaires, researcher‟s diary and checklist. Quantitative data were analysed by using SPSS computer software and “content analysis” technique was used to analyse qualitative data. The study found that PuSS, which were involved in SEDP II Programme had poor and insufficient inputs, educational output and educational management tasks compared to PrSS, which were not involved in SEDP II Programme. The study also found out that PrSS had much autonomy and decentralisation compared to PuSS. It was concluded that the shortage of proper management of fiscal, human and materials resource management affected the quality of PuSS. It was, therefore, recommended that there is a need for the Central Government to allocate enough funds to its schools to cater for all necessary inputs required. Also should employ trained educational managers for proper financial, human and material resources management. Further research to undertake case studies on the relative performance of public and private secondary schools in boosting student achievement was also suggested. | en_US |
