The role of alternative education to Students’ holistic learning: A case of Tanzanian schools in Morogoro

Abstract

This research investigates how alternative education contributes to students' overall education. Data was gathered utilising a mixed-tech approach, which included questionnaires and interviews. The results demonstrated the need for alternative education in enhancing academic content because academic content alone is insufficient to help students build transferable skills, entrepreneurial abilities, and real-world situational knowledge. If a student fails the standardised national examination at the exit stages of school, they are still eligible for alternative education, which helps them deal with situations in the real world.
