Background

Education in Tanzania is a right for all citizens. In an effort to achieve this goal, the government of the United Republic of Tanzania has set out its vision, overarching policy, and strategic objectives for the education sector and has captured these in the Education Sector Development Plans (ESDP) since 1997. The government recognizes that education is a key cornerstone for the human capital development of the country.
