description The main objective of the study was to find out the amount of the digital divide between studentes and teachers of the first secondary school of Tabriz City in the conditions of COVID-19 virus. The research method is descriptive and causal-comparative. The study population included all teachers and students of girl’s high schools (9- level) in Tabriz City in the first semester of the academic year 2020-2021, from which 352 students and 102 teachers were selected through Cochran's formula and stratified random sampling. The necessary data were gathered from the five educational districts of Tabriz City through the implementation of electronic questionnaires. The questionnaire of Hosseini et al. (2013) for gathering data related to the variable "access to ICT", and the Gregg’s Questionnaire (2016) for variables "the rate of ICT use", "attitude toward ICT" and "skills in using ICT" were used. The content validity of the questionnaires was confirmed by experts and the reliability of the first questionnaire was calculated 0.796 for teachers and 0.773 for students, and 0.86 for the second questionnaire with using Cronbach's alpha. The collected data were analyzed by using independent t-test. The results showed that there is an inequality between students and teachers of girls' high schools in Tabriz City in all dimensions of digital divide except for the skill of using ICT, and teachers in these dimensions are in a better position in many educational districts.
