Education During the Colonial Period: The first visitors to Mainland Tanzania were the Arabs, followed by the Portuguese, Germans and the British.

Schools of different nations differed in goals, curricula, qualifications and professions of teachers, language of instruction, and the quality of school buildings and teachers’ homes.
