Abstract	This study examines teachers' perceptions of administrative support for technology integration in classrooms, with a comparative analysis between Tanzanian and Indian secondary schools. The research points out the significant role of administrative leadership in creating an environment conducive to adopting digital technologies in education. Teacher data was collected through a mixed-method approach by questionnaires and interviews, coupled with the demographic analysis of gender, age, education levels, and teaching experience. Results from the quantitative analysis indicated that generally, Indian teachers were satisfied with administrative support; however, their Tanzanian counterparts showed dissatisfaction, mainly because of inadequate training opportunities and lack of proper IT infrastructure. Qualitative data from interviews with school heads corroborated these results, highlighting systemic policy implementation and resource allocation challenges. The study emphasizes that effective technology integration requires not only investment in infrastructure but also consistent professional development for teachers and proactive administrative engagement. These findings are significant for policymakers aiming to bridge the digital divide in education across diverse socio-economic contexts. Conclusively, it makes recommendations that will strengthen administrative frameworks through support systems in terms of ICT; regular training programs; and collective leadership models to have effective teacher efficacies in utilizing technology. More so, providing comparative insights within this research enhances broader discussion into digital transformation issues in education issues more keenly experienced among developing nations.
