The public sector dominates the education landscape in Tanzania. Nine out of ten households (90%) report that their children exclusively attend public schools.
The share of households with a child in private school remained constant at 10% between August 2016 and September 2017. While nine out of ten households currently do not have any children in private school, over half (52%) indicated that they would send their child to private school rather than public school if both types of school were free.
A higher proportion of parents send their children to private nursery schools (27%) and secondary schools (17%) than primary schools (7%).
