The main objective of the study was to explore the effectiveness and efficiency of decentralization towards the teachers‟ remuneration provision for education development. The study mainly adopted qualitative and quantitative research approaches. The methods employed in data collection include the use of interviews, questionnaire as well as documentary search, in which the documents involved were government reports on education development, journals, newspapers, books, research reports and other relevant articles about education. The study also involved 71 secondary school teachers and 10 heads of schools, staffs from Dodoma Municipal council including the DED, DEO, HR personnel and other stake holders. The key informants in this study were the secondary school teachers, The Dodoma municipal staffs and the District secretary for Teachers‟ Trade Union. Findings revealed that, following the contemporary decentralization of teachers‟ remuneration provision to the local governments in Tanzania, there has been a little improvement in access, quality and management of services especially those related to the teachers‟ remunerations provision. Based on study findings, the researcher recommends that the government should recruit the qualified workers as well as training those who are in service as a way to increase performance in service provision at Dodoma Municipal; to have an effective workers‟ re-categorization program so as to use the knowledge available at the municipal level effectively. | en_US |
