Abstract
The study aimed to assess the influence of educational facilities on secondary students’ academic performance at ordinary level. Specifically, the study assessed the role of instruction facilities (chairs/desks, library/books) and the role of teachers’ qualification on students’ academic performance. The study was conducted in two regions, Morogoro and Dar-es-salaam regions of Tanzania. The questionnaire method for data collection was employed to all respondents and the data were quantitatively analyzed with a multiple linear regression analysis using a Statistical Package for social science (SPSS). The study revealed that there is a significant and positive relationship between a school performance and instruction facilities (chairs/desks, library/books,) and as well as between a school performance and the number of qualified (graduate) teachers in a school. Therefore, the study suggests that the government of Tanzania and other stakeholders need to insure plenty supply of educational facilities as well as supplying graduate teachers in secondary schools.
