LA IMMACULADA CONCEPCION SCHOOL

CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction

Attendance of the students in their respective school is one of the main factor of

having an effective education for them to attend their classes and have new knowledge

that they may acquire. One of the reasons why the students are failing is because of their

number of absence in class. Especially for the junior high school students now that all of

the school is very strict when it comes to the attendance of the students, it may play a big

role when it comes to the student’s grades. Attendance in lectures is identified as one of

the determinants of student performance attending classes yields a positive impact on

exam performance

The student’s needs to focus on their studies so therefore, they must be present in

their classes in order to achieve their agenda. Some scenarios, the students love to be

absent because the class is said to be boring and that causes them to cut classes.

La Immaculada Concepcion School is one of the oldest private schools in Pasig

city where most students get highly educated especially in mathematics. This school is

very active when it comes to outside activities, and extra-curricular activities that make

students active. Also, the school provides the best teacher that they can accept in the

school and that makes it great.


LA IMMACULADA CONCEPCION SCHOOL

A study conducted by ( Marburger, 2006) found that students who missed class on

a given date were significantly more likely to respond incorrectly to questions relating to

material covered on that day than those who were present. Another study conducted by

(Stanca, 2006) also concluded that after controlling for unobservable student

characteristics, attendance has a statistically significant and quantitatively relevant effect

on student learning. Various authors concluded in their studies that, in the education or in

academia, class attendance has significant impact on how the students perform and

succeed in their class and in their studies as a whole.

Other studies state that one of the reason why the students are keep on absenting

is bullying. Being bullied is one common reason why students seek to avoid school.

Academic struggle is another. If a student feels like he’s constantly failing, that he’s

different or not as smart as his peers, he may try to get out of going to school.

A negative school environment can also be a factor. It’s hard enough for a student

who’s struggling to stay motivated to attend school. But if he doesn’t feel understood, or

is constantly being disciplined, he may start to resist going to school.

The general objective of this study is to find out the impact of student’s

absenteeism on the academic performance of Junior High School students in La

Immaculada Concepcion School. The researcher’s aims to determine if this could serve as

a vital information aimed at showing the relationship that exist between the performance

of students and the student’s absenteeism in La Immaculada Concepcion School.


LA IMMACULADA CONCEPCION SCHOOL

The researcher’s main purpose is to increase the awareness of the students about

the absenteeism by informing the possible effects on their academic performance. The

research will be beneficial to the students of the institution of La Immaculada

Concepcion School as long as the other school for them to realize the factors of being

absent in class.
