selected secondary schools in Musoma rural and urban districts, Tanzania. the study was
based on the following objectives: to determine the level of capacity building among the ward
education coordinators in managing the secondary schools under study, to determine the
level of effectiveness among the ward education coordinators in managing the secondary
schools under study and to determine if there was a significant relationship between the level
of capacity building and the level of effectiveness among the ward education coordinators in
managing the secondary schools under study. The study employed descriptive survey and
descriptive correlational design the respondents of the study were ward education

the respondents and mean for the level of capacity building and effectiveness among WEC in
managing secondary schools. Spearman’s correlation was used to establish the relationship
between the level of capacity building and effectiveness among WEC in managing secondary
schools. Regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between the dependent
variable and the independent variable. The research finding in regard to the level of Capacity
Building revealed an average mean of (1.96) and was interpreted as fair. The overall
indication on the effectiveness of WEC revealed an average mean of (1.83) and this was also
interpreted as fair. The results suggested that the level of capacity building was significantly
correlated with the level of effectiveness among WEC (r=O.961, Sig=O.000). The study
recommended that the government should stipulate a well designed training policy for the
ward education coordinators. This would enable them to perform their duties confidently and
