CHAPTER ONE

Background of the Study

Currently in Nigeria, the complexity of organisational functions has shown the need for management information system, which could enhance the realisation of organisational objectives. Information flows is the bedrock of any organisation because adequate and good information assist the administrator/manager to make sound decisions. Thus, the computer has made management functions relatively easier.

Aliche (2009) defines information technology as the electro-manual method, which operates with the use and application of computers with a mechanical system in sending information, receiving messages, storing data and statistics and ensuring that the data stored are readily retrievable as at when needed (P.I). Akinyemi (2012) pointed out that the impact of computer are great and include greater efficiency, high quality products, increased productivity and convenience of operation as well as better services delivery. Thus it is a means through which educational problems are taken care of. Therefore, it is the application of technology to solve educational problems. Indeed, there is rapid development of computer which are boost to information handling and processing as well as educational management. Olowe (2012) opined that computer is an incredible and fundamental tool in addressing issue at ease and faster rate. This of course, has been the strategy that has adopted by administration of secondary schools to see to the effectiveness and efficiency in the administration.
