The mindset of secondary school students regarding education, particularly during a lockdown during the COVID-19 pandemic appears to have had an impact on students' academic performance. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between virtual classroom management and secondary school students’ attitudes towards learning in Lagos State, Nigeria. The descriptive research design and survey type were used for the study. A multistage sampling procedure using a simple random sampling technique, a total of 1497 secondary school students and 935 teachers were selected from 66 schools in Lagos State for the study. Data was collected through a self-structured questionnaire and analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Data was collected through a structured questionnaire and validated using Cronbach’s Alpha to determine the reliability (α= 0. .931) of the instrument using a descriptive survey design. Frequency counts, percentages and correlation analysis were used to analysis the data. The findings showed that virtual classroom management was mostly related (r=0.838) to the students’ learning attitudes during the lockdown COVID-19 pandemic. The study recommended that the Lagos State government should provide technological support to secondary schools, provide effective training for teachers and work on a strategy to improve secondary school students’ attitudes towards learning in Lagos State, Nigeria.
