This study investigated secondary school principals’ use of ICT tools for administrative purposes within Oriade and Ilesa East Local Government Areas of Osun State. A total of 50 principals were selected from both private and public secondary schools within the study area. A self-developed questionnaire titled “Principals’ Use of ICT Tools for School Administration” with a reliability coefficient of 0.76 was used for data collection. Data were analyzed using frequency counts, percentages, t-test, and Analysis of Variance. The study revealed a low level of utilization of ICT tools in school administration by principals. It also reported no significant difference in the utilization on the platform of gender, school ownership, years of experience as teachers and principals. The study therefore recommends that the use of ICT tools for administration should be encouraged by exposing the principals to seminars and workshops that could stimulate the adoption, coupled with the provision of ICT infrastructure in secondary schools.
