dc.description.abstractThe Government education institutions identified the student management information system (SMIS) as a key contributor for building trust and confidence for the general education institutions in the heart of any nation or state. SMIS has been visualized to not only help the teachers and administrators to have better monitoring and control of the functioning of the education institutions but also many other education stakeholders across the nation who needs decision support indicators. This study established the extent to which adoption and implementation of SMIS in education institutions and determined the extent to which SMIS promoted management decision making, academic practices and increasing demand for students information use. Target population was school administrators, teachers and parents in Kandara Sub County. A sample size of 200 respondents was used and questionnaires were the data collection tools. Findings showed that 90% of administrators had already adopted and implemented the use of SMIS in their institutions, 87.5% of teachers had adopted and implemented the use of SMIS in managing students’ data and information while 75% of parents appreciated the adoption and implementation of SMIS in the institutions where their children were learning. Further, 95% of administrators and 75% of teachers appreciated the use of SMIS in their institutions which has enabled them to make sound decisions regarding students’ data and information. The study recommends adoption and implementation of SMIS since it helps institutions’ administration manage various operations including students’ data and information.
