One of the recent remarkable developments in education is the introduction of Information Communication Technology (ICT). The purpose of this research was to study the use of ICT in school management of Maldivian schools. Quantitative and qualitative methods are used in this study with a representative sample of school teachers/ teachers-supervisors and principals selected for the study. The findings of the research demonstrate that even though the facilities and equipment of ICT are available in some Maldivian schools, ICT is not used effectively in educational management of schools, rather they are used to some extent for daily administrative purposes of the school. The findings of the study will benefit the policy makers of developing countries, Ministry of Education, principals, teachers and other schooling education related personalities of the Maldives.
