This article presents a summary of a larger study that explored perceptions of junior secondary mathematics teachers towards the use of Microsoft Excel in teaching selected concepts in the topic graphs. The study employed the quantitative survey approach and 85 mathematics teachers participated. Two research questions guided the study and a five-point Likert scale questionnaire with thirty items was used to collect data which was analysed through descriptive statistics. The findings of this study revealed that generally mathematics teachers have positive perceptions on the use of Excel which according to the theory of planned behaviour, could be translated into action. It also revealed that competence in using Excel, shortage of computers and limited time, influence teachers’ perceptions on the use of Excel.
