The emergence of Information and Communication Technologies and knowledge economies has ushered in a paradigm shift in education. Traditional paperwork is being overtaken by electronic devices as the standard working tools in educational institutions. The need to assess the role of public secondary school principals in promoting the use and institutionalization of ICTs for teaching, learning and school management has become increasingly necessary. Principals now manage technology-mediated institutions, digital information and virtual interactions. Teachers are becoming facilitators fostering lifelong learning and equipping learners to look for information on their own. This study investigated the extent of use of ICT resources, principals’ role, challenges and strategies they employ. A mixed methods research was carried which concurrently integrated cross sectional survey and phenomenology designs. Probability and non probability sampling procedures were used. Sampling yielded 15 schools and 109 participants comprising 15 principals, 30 heads of departments, 60 teachers and 4 education officials. Data was collected using questionnaires, interview guides and observation schedules. Pilot testing was carried out on 6 principals, 8 HoDs and 10 teachers and the findings used to determine the validity, reliability and improvement of research instruments. The questionnaires for principals, HoDs and teachers’ yielded an overall Cronbach’s alpha reliability index of 0.756.
