The paper examines the rate, trend, gender, location and the causes of secondary school students' inter-school mobility in Delta State of Nigeria. It also determines the problems associated with school administrative tasks as a consequence of this phenomenon. An instrument titled, Students' Inter-school Mobility and School Administration Questionnaire (SISMABAQ) was developed and subjected to validity with a test retest reliability coefficient of 0.78. This instrument was used to solicit responses from a sample of 399 school administrators. The sample was selected from a population of 1113 school administrators based on stratified random sampling technique. Descriptive statistics-frequency, percentage and the mean - were used to analyze the data. The findings show that the rate of movement was low, higher in rural areas than in urban areas, but on the whole was fairly steady. Several factors were identified as reasons for the phenomenon with the top-most being examination malpractice, indicating that most students moved because they wanted to make good grades in their High School Certificate Examinations but without working hard to earn those fine grades. On the whole, the phenomenon of student mobility negatively affected secondary school administration in Delta State of Nigeria. Key Terms: Academic performance, administrative tasks, drop-out, inter-school movement, inter-school transfer, secondary school administration, student mobility.
