Abstract

Basic education in Tanzania especially in rural schools is faced with diverse challenges that hinder effective teaching and learning. This situation requires immediate interventions from the government to improve basic education in rural schools. The purpose of this study was based on improving basic education in rural schools in Tanzania: lessons from China. This study employed secondary sources to collect data. The government of China used different efforts to improve rural education compared to the previous years. Due to strong investment, most rural schools in China have an improved school environment, well-equipped classrooms, accommodation facilities, and well-constructed teachers' houses. The findings revealed that education in rural schools in Tanzania could be improved by following those efforts employed by China. To succeed in those efforts, the central government of Tanzania should increase financial investment in the education sector through total budgetary allocation to satisfy academic development and simplify the educational plans and policy implementation. As a result, through financial investment, teaching and learning facilities, boarding schools, well-equipped classrooms, accommodation facilities, teachers' houses, and other materials will be accessible in rural schools. On top of that, Tanzania should work with partnerships such as nonprofit organizations (NPOs) to improve basic education in rural and remote areas. Furthermore, the Tanzanian government should initiate special financial management to deal with operational expenditures for the future development of education in rural schools.
