Abstract
This study was on the investigation of the impact of students’ assessment on the
quality of education. The case study was Toangoma ward secondary schools in
Temeke district Dar es Salaam. The researcher wanted to examine the types of
assessment used in secondary schools, student’s perception on assessment as well as
the effects of assessment on quality of education. Literature review was done on the
theories and educational policy in Tanzania. Data collection was done through
question and observation as well as documentary review from NECTA records. The
findings indicate that majority teachers in secondary schools use three types of
assessment which are diagnostic, formative and summative. Also the findings show
that students understand why they are assessed. Not only that but also the impact of
