Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors affecting ICT Integration Situation in the Primary Schools in Bundibugyo in Uganda. The study used a cross-sectional research design with a sample size of 189 respondents (60 pupils and 129 teachers). Stratified and simple random samplings were used as sampling techniques while questionnaires and interviews were used as research instruments. The study found that the factors that are affecting the use of integrated ICT in the primary schools in Bundibugyo include lack of teacher preparedness, lack of learners‟ preparedness, and lack of administrative preparedness. The study recommended that: Teachers should be made prepared to use integrated ICT at primary school level by receiving frequent ICT related trainings. The National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC) should ensure that the approach is incorporated in the curriculum. The learners should be mentally prepared and gradually introduced to use integrated ICT so that they can grasp the content progressively without getting discouraged or frustrated with the ICT-enhanced learning process. Finally, the school administrators should support learners by providing ICT-related books in the library so that the learners can make further discoveries. Similarly, the school administrators and Primary Teacher Association (PTA) members to ICT technical experts in their schools to provide technical assistance such as repair, installation, maintenance, technical advice to teachers and learners.
