Abstract

This study investigated the role of Information Communication Management (ICM) as a predictor of effective administration in secondary schools in Enugu State. Guided by two research questions and two null hypotheses, the study employed a correlational research design. The population consisted of 8,588 principals and teachers in government-owned secondary schools, with a sample of 12 principals and 356 teachers, selected using simple random sampling from three educational zones. Two instruments, the Information Communication Management Questionnaire (ICMQ) and the Effective Administration Questionnaire (EAQ), were developed and validated by experts in educational management and measurement from Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu. Test retest reliability yielded coefficients of 0.83 and 0.86. Data were analysed using mean, standard deviation, correlation coefficients, and simple regression at a 0.05 significance level. The findings revealed that ICM significantly predicted effective administration in secondary schools, showing a strong positive correlation. Based on the results, it was recommended that principals enhance their communication strategies to improve school administration.
