The paper reports on an ethnographic study done in two secondary schools in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The main aim of the study was to find out the functions of English-Kiswahili code-switching in secondary school classrooms and to see whether this practice reflects and/ or reinforces the language values held by secondary school pupils. The paper argues that code-switching is employed in strategic ways by both teachers and pupils for meaningful classroom interaction. It further argues that despite the advantages of code switching, this mode of classroom discourse reinforces the view among pupils that English is more appropriate for academic work than Kiswahili.
