The study was carried out to determine the influence of the Principals' leadership style and its effect on the tutors' ICT integration in teaching in Nyanza Region Kenya. One research question and research hypothesis guided the study. The population comprised of 30 Principals and 160 Tutors. A questionnaire and an interview schedule were used to collect data from the Principals and Tutors. Cronbach alpha reliability computation was done to determine the overall reliability of the instrument. Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.9 and higher was considered reliable. Pearson correlation coefficient, mean and standard deviation were used to analyze data collected and the hypothesis was tested at 0.01 alpha levels. The results from the data analysis indicated there was a direct linear relationship between principal's instructional leadership styles and the teachers' integration of ICT in teaching of science. Based on the findings of the study, it was recommended that the Government of Kenya should develop policies to guide the instructional leaders, KICD, TSC, MOEST and KESI to develop guidelines for Tutors in ICT integration during the teaching of Science.
