The study aimed at determining ways in which TAC tutors, participate in implementation of secondary school curriculum and to establish whether teachers in secondary schools make use of TAC centers. The study adopted a descriptive design. The study targeted all the 24 public secondary schools in the district. A sample size of 7 schools was randomly selected for the study. All the seven TAC tutors in the district were purposely selected and each one of them represents a zone.
