ACTION RESEARCH PROPOSAL
TITLE: FACTORS AFEECTING THE PERFORMANCE OF GRADE VI PUPILS’ IN NATIONAL ACHIEVEMENT

TEST OF CAIMA ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
I. PROPONENT: RAMIL C. REZARIN
II. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY:
The National Achievement Test (NAT) is an examination given annually to assess the competency
of both public and private school students. The students’ knowledge and skills are tested in the subjects
of Mathematics, English, Science, Filipino, and HEKASI for grade school. The test is administered by the
Department of Education's National Education Testing and Research Center (NETRC). The results are
intended to guide the Department of Education in its efforts towards the improvement of the quality of
education in public schools and to provide appropriate intervention for the students. A score of 75% and
up indicates mastery of the subject and 50% to less than 75%, near mastery; while a score of below 50%
indicates low mastery.
The NAT results guide decision makers in formulating policies relative to progression and
promotion of students, especially in the public school system. These will also determine the deficiencies
of students that need further intervention.

III. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM:
This action research aimed to determine the Factors Related to pupils’ Performance in the National
Achievement Test in Caima Elementary School.

Specifically, it sought to answer the following questions:
1. What is the profile of the respondents in terms of:
1.1 age
1.2 gender
1.3 parents’ educational attainment
1.3.1 mother
1.3.2 father
1.4 monthly income of the family
1.5 average rating for the last school year attended?
2. What is the extent of the school climate conditions as perceived by student respondents in terms of:
2.1 school facilities
2.2 instructional focus
2.3 physical environment?
3. What is the level of performance of pupils in the National Achievement Test in Caima Elementary
School in:
3.1 English
3.2 Math
3.3 Science
3.4 AP
3.5 Filipino
4. Is there a significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and pupils’ achievement in
NAT in terms of:

4.1 age
4.2 gender
4.3 parents’ educational attainment
4.3.1 mother
4.3.2 father
4.4 monthly income of the family
4.5 average rating for the last school year attended?
5. Is there a significant relationship between the school climate conditions and pupils’ performance in
NAT as perceived by the student’ respondents in terms of:

5.3 Physical environment
6. Is there a significant difference in the school climate conditions as perceived by pupils respondents in
terms of:
6.3 physical environments?
IV. SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
Findings of this study provided vital information regarding the factors affecting the pupils’ performance
in the National Achievement Test (NAT) in terms of students’ profile and school climate condition.
The findings of this study will benefit the following:
Superintendent. It may help the superintendent to identify the needs of the school and to plan
for the support system that the school leaders need to prioritize when it comes to students’
performance.
Principal. The result of this study may also serve as framework for various programs and
strategies to be employed on the school improvement planning. School climate condition assessment
may use as data inputs on the reality check matters of school academic performance. Thus, appropriate
programs and thrusts may be formulated and provided with appropriate budget for the improvement of
the students’ performance. It is also possible to have a rigid monitoring of monthly result of students’
mean percentage score (MPS) in their chapter test to be posted using graphical representation to easily
identify the competencies that needs enough attention in classroom instruction. With the help of graphs,
the principal can help and assist teachers in uplifting the performance of the students.
Teachers. The result of this finding is of value to teachers because it will provide an overview of
the needs analysis of the school. They may be guided from the level of assistance the school and the
principal may need and may help them to work cooperatively in order for them to attain success in the
national achievement test. By means of carefully recorded grades of the student, the teacher and
principal can work collaboratively to identify the competencies the students had mastered, not mastered
and needs mastery. With this, teachers can be guided to the lesson that he needs to give more emphasis
for students.
Pupils. The improvement of school climate condition will be beneficial for the pupils. A favorable
school climate condition may serve as pupils’ motivation in improving their academic performance. The
motivating factors that will start from the initiative of the school principal may help the pupils to be
more enthusiastic in learning process.

Future researchers. This study will help to encourage future researchers to conduct the most
vital part of the school progress in terms of academic. The study may propel them to go into related area
or they may study further school academic achievement for other perspective. This may also provide
data bases for further innovation of this research study.
V. SCOPE OF THE STUDY
The result of this study will be limited on the perception of 25 pupils’ respondents of Caima
Elementary School
VI. RESEARCH DESIGN
 Methodology
The researcher will use the descriptive-correlation method of research that
seeks the relationships which exist between different factors of pupils’ performance
in the national achievement test in Caima Elementary School.

The researcher will apply also the comparative method of research that aims to
make comparisons among different variables in school climate conditions such as
physical facilities, instructional focus and physical environment.
