The present study looks on the condition of computer literacy among secondary school students and its impact on academic accomplishment in Arsikere, Hassan District, Karnataka. The study’s objectives are to (1) investigate the relationship between academic achievement and computer literacy, (2) compare academic achievement among students with varying levels of computer literacy and (3) investigate differences in academic achievement across school management types (government, private aided and private unaided). A random sample of 120 secondary school students was chosen to represent all school management categories. Meenakshi and Dr. Narayanaswamy M. designed the Computer Knowledge Questionnaire and official school records were used to collect academic results for the study. The statistical analyses included mean, standard deviation, correlation, one-way ANOVA and Scheffe’s post hoc test. The data demonstrated a substantial positive relationship between computer literacy and academic accomplishment, implying that students with higher computer literacy do better academically. Students with higher reading levels outperformed others, although the difference between average and high levels was not statistically significant. Furthermore, school management style affects academic achievement, with private unaided school students outperforming their counterparts in government and private aided schools. The study suggests that computer literacy and the quality of educational infrastructure are both important factors in encouraging academic performance among secondary students.
