Technology plays an important role in the world of education today. Its use can help the process of delivering education better. In addition, technology can also connect educators from all over the country through certain digital platforms. The use of technology is also seen to provide great benefits to leadership in schools, especially involving special education. Management can be implemented smoothly with the use of technology, even though the world today is still hit by the Covid19 pandemic. This brief study was conducted to explore the opinions of headmasters as special education leaders in schools regarding the function of technology in assisting their leadership. This qualitative study involved an online interview session with five headmasters who are working in schools with special education programs in the district of Batu Pahat, Johor, Malaysia. Thematic analysis was conducted and the findings of the study showed that, there are five functions of technology in helping special education leadership, namely, guidance, mentoring, evaluating, networking and discussion. It is hoped that this study can provide a basic overview to the next researcher to conduct further research.
