  <dc:description>ABSTRACT This study sought to investigate the practice and challenge of EMIS in the secondary schools of kaffa zone. The purpose of this study is to assess the practice and challenge of utilizing an educational management information system in government secondary schools of kaffa zone. The objectives of the study were: -finding out the extent to which ICT facilities were accessible to the school managers in government secondary schools of kaffa zone, find out the extent of use of EMIS in school management in secondary schools of kaffa zone and examining factor that affect the effective use of EMIS in school management in secondary schools. The study employed mixed approach research design. The target population in selected study area was 301 school teacher, 15 vice principal, 15 principal, 16 unit leader, and four woreda education officer.

The sampling techniques were used censure sampling for principals vice principals unit leaders and woreda education officers and simple random sampling for school teachers. Data was collected quantitatively through survey questions and qualitatively through interview, observation and document analysis at the same time. The data was analyzed by use of descriptive statistics (frequency , percentage, mean and standard deviation) and inferential statics which is independent sampling t-test. The significant level was set at alpha =0.05. The finding show that vice principals and department head teachers were not accessible for ICT facility for their managerial duties. School principals are accessible for ICT facilities at low extent for their managerial duties. The extent of using EMIS by stockholders/ woreda education officers, department head teachers and education management team at each hierarchy/ was found at low extent. The extent of EMIS development in the school was found at low extent.

The skill gap in school leaders and stack holders in using EMIS and ICT in school management were challenges that affect the effective use of EMIS in school management. The absence of skill training , in adequate ICT facility and ICT infrastructure and power for using ICT were challenges of EMIS .Finally, to improve such challenges the study suggest zone education department to seek funding more to equip school with ICT facilities and infrastructure.
