Learner-centred pedagogy (LCP), spreading across the global South, is believed to improve student learning. Although the ethics and efficacy of promoting LCP in the global South has been a much-debated issue, the relationship between LCP and learning attitudes has received scant scholarly attention. This research utilised structured lesson observations and questionnaires to explore whether LCP relates to positive attitudes towards learning in primary schools in Tanzania. Adopting a broader conceptualisation of LCP to include not only observable practices of LCP-related activities (‘observed-LCP’) but also pupils’ perceptions of classroom experiences (‘perceived-LCP’), the research differentiated associations of the two types of LCP with learning attitudes. The results indicated that the more pupils felt they experienced LCP, the more positive learning attitudes they had. Conversely, observed-LCP exhibited inconsequential associations with learning attitudes. The paper illuminates the importance of pupils’ subjective experiences of LCP implementation in the global South.
