    It appears these days that teachers’ job effectiveness in Lagos State seems to be declining, which is evident in low job satisfaction, reduced student engagement, declining academic standards, parents and community dissatisfaction and high turnover rate. Factors contributing to this include burnout and stress, low level of availability of educational resources, poor leadership, and poor motivation among others. While little research has been conducted on principal managerial strategies and ICT instructional materials as determinants of job effectiveness of senior secondary school teachers in Lagos State, to fill this gap, this study investigated these factors as determinants of job effectiveness of senior secondary school teachers in Lagos State. A descriptive research design of the survey type was used to guide the study. The population consist of all 7852 teachers and 323 principals in public senior secondary schools in Lagos State. A multi-stage sampling procedure that contains different sampling technique and a self-developed questionnaire for teachers and principals was utilised. The findings revealed that the level of job effectiveness of senior secondary school teachers in Lagos State was high ( x̄=3.21); the most prominent principal managerial strategy in public senior secondary schools in Lagos State was time management( x̄=3.2); the mostly used ICT instructional material was e-text-based materials( x̄=2.91); the combined influence of principal managerial strategies and ICT instructional materials has a significant influence on job effectiveness of senior secondary school teachers in Lagos State (Adj. R2 = 0.990) and (F(2,1357) = 69129.968; p< 0.05); resource management demonstrates the strongest positive influence on teachers’ job effectiveness (β = 0.452, t = 21.501, p< 0.05). Based on these findings, it was recommended among others that public senior secondary schools should implement regular training and professional development programmes for teachers which focuses on enhancing administrative effectiveness and utilising ICT instructional materials effectively.
