Abstract
Past research has shown that excellent strategies have been written, but few have been successfully implemented. Crafting the best strategy is not the end in itself as ultimate results will only be realised once the plan is successfully implemented. A strategic plan is a management tool used to transform organisational objectives into actions. This study carried out an analysis of factors influencing the implementation of strategic plans in selected secondary schools in Kisii County. The focus of was on institutional policies and resources allocation, and the views of teaching staff. There have recently been challenges like increased student enrolment and declining performance in national examinations. A descriptive survey design using stratified sampling was used. The study population comprised of school managers including teachers, principals and deputy principals serving in selected schools. Primary data was collected through questionnaires. Key words: Strategic Plans, Implementation, Schools
