Abstract: Purpose: The current study aimed at assessing determinants of strategy implementation on performance of constituency development fund's projects in public primary schools in Balambala constituency, Kenya. The specific objectives of the study were; to establish the relationship between strategic leadership, strategic resources, and strategic communication on performance of constituency development fund's projects in public primary schools in Balambala constituency, Kenya. Methodology: The target population in the current study consisted of 38 headteachers 38 BoM Chairpersons, 38 Parent Association chairpersons, 38 parents and 1 (one) CDF manager totaling to 153 participants. The 153 were considered for the study through a census approach since the target population was small to conduct any sampling. This study was guided by the path-goal theory, resource-based view theory and communication theory. The study employed descriptive survey research. Primary data will be collected using structured questionnaires. The questionnaire consisted of close ended questions. Data analysis was done using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics. The results of this study were displayed by use of suitable tables. Findings: The findings of the study revealed that there was positive correlation between strategy implementation and performance of the CDF projects where leadership had the greatest impact, followed by the communication and lastly the leadership where all had positive correlation. Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommended that the CDF officials need to implement inclusive decision-making processes through regular forums and committees with diverse representation, alongside structured feedback mechanisms to systematically incorporate stakeholder input into project planning and execution. Additionally, they should strengthen accountability and transparency in CDF projects. Furthermore, the team should allocate resources based on comprehensive budgets, regularly adjusting them to meet project needs. Also the team should enhance strategic communication practices within CDF projects by improving channels, conducting regular meetings, providing timely updates, implementing robust feedback systems and ensuring follow-up actions. Lastly, the concerned parties should develop strategies that ensure projects are designed with long-term sustainability and are user-centered to enhance effectiveness and sustainability."ƒ
