dc.description.abstractThis research began when Morogoro District included what is now known as Mvomero District. This study, to examine the role of NGOs in promoting Basic Primary School Education in rural areas was conducted in Morogoro and Mvomero rural districts with the view to broaden the community awareness and knowledge about the contribution of NGOs to the education sector. NGOs in this study are regarded as organizations involved in development activities with the objective of alleviating poverty through the promotion of primary school education sector in the rural areas. Recommended strategies that would promote co-operation between the NGOs and the two districts in improving service to universal primary school education have been presented. A strategic research design which allows collection of information from the intended groups was adopted. Data collection involved documentation, interviews and structured questionnaires, which were administered to a sample of 217 respondents. The data collected were described and analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) computer software. Results showed that there is a slight performance improvement of pupils in schools supported by NGOs. The NGOs are operating in areas of infrastructure availability, whereas the remote areas of distance more than 80 kilometres from the districts’ headquarters are disadvantaged from the support. Pupils’ performance in school supported by NGOs was significant at t-test (P < 0.001). Services provided by the NGOs include, among others; the construction and rehabilitation of school buildings, provision of books, supply of teaching materials, equipments such as computers and photocopy machines; and school greening (environmental conservation).
