The study investigated principals' change management processes and secondary school goal attainment in Cross River State, Nigeria. To meet the study's objectives, three research questions were posed, and three null hypotheses were developed to lead the investigation. The literature review was based on the variables and hypotheses that had been developed. For the study, a survey research design was used. The population of the study comprised two hundred and ninety (290) secondary school teachers in Yala Local Government Area in Cross River State. However, the sample size selected for this study comprised one hundred and sixty-two (162) secondary school teachers in the study area who answered the questionnaire. The main instrument used was a research questionnaire titled Principal Change Process and Secondary School Goal Attainment Questionnaire (PCMPSSGAQ), which had been verified by two researchers from the University of Calabar's Department of Vocational Education. Regarding the research questions, the acquired data was evaluated using the standard deviation as well as the mean. The degree of consensus or discord was calculated by taking the mean across the nominal scores assigned to each choice. The mean score of the scale was 2.50 on a 4-point rating scale. Comparably, the hypotheses were assessed using an independent t-test at the 0.05 level of significance. The results of the investigation indicate that staff training, communication of the change process, and change process supervision have a substantial influence on secondary school achievement of objectives. It was recommended that the secondary school board of Cross River State prioritize staff training and retraining programs in the secondary school system for goal achievement.
