CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

Rationale

Facility means the system which supports the operation of an institution to

carry its daily activities and to promote growth and development in such

institution. It refers to the entire environment of the school, both the physical and

material resources available to the students and teachers to facilitate learning-

teaching process. Some examples of facilities that are present in SNI are the

library, clinic, TLE room, science laboratory and computer laboratory which are

very important to the students for their academic performances.

Students consider the school facilities and equipment as one of the major

problems that should be dealt with. Facilities and equipment are very necessary

to the students for their academic performance because it have been observed

as a potent factor to quantitative education. According to Dada (2004), anyone

who is familiar with secondary school classrooms in Nigeria, especially in Lagos

State, will agree that no meaningful teaching/learning activities can effectively

take place in most of them, even if teachers are God-sent and the learners are

celestial pack of highly intelligence personalities, the problem is that where there

are classrooms, they are overcrowded to the extent that rooms originally meant

for between 30 and 40 students, take between 60 and 80 students with a good

number of them sitting on windows. In this situation, neither the teacher nor the

students can move freely as expected in our secondary school classrooms. This
 2

is why many teachers do not give assignments to such large number of students

regularly as expected and this has affected students’ academic performance

drastically. For Fuller (1985) in his empirical studies of use of textbooks and

educational achievement involving 1,006 students, he revealed that students who

had used more than two textbooks were almost three times to pass… 67%

graduating examination compared to students who had no textbooks in schools

(only 24% graduating). It means that school facilities and equipment like the

textbooks are very vital for the students to improve their academic performance.

Researchers were triggered to conduct this study because of some

reasons. First, there is no study similar to this in Sto. Niño Institute of Getafe,

Bohol Inc. Second, the researchers want to know if the facilities and equipment

really affect the academic performance of the students. The researchers agreed

that the respondents will be the Grade 10 students since they will be the future

molder of Sto. Niño Institute of Getafe, Bohol Inc. Researchers observed that

most of the Grade 10 students of Sto. Niño Institute wanted to have an enough

facilities and equipment towards their academic performances.

 3

Theoretical Background

To support this study, the researchers find theories that will help explain

the importance of school facilities and equipment and how it affect to the

academic performance of the students.

A theory by Thomas W. Shiland (1999), as cited by J.Chem. Educ.1999,

76, 1, 107, known as the Constructivism: the implications for laboratory work is

used to suggest ways in modifying laboratory facilities to increase students’

understanding. It means that it is very important to provide adequate school

facilities and equipment especially when it comes to the laboratory that is very

useful not only for the teachers but also for the students in their laboratory works

which increase the learning when we talks about science.

A theory that first appeared in a 1982 article in The Atlantic by two social

scientists, James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling known as the Broken-

Windows theory that helps explain the vandalism and associated disrespect for

school facilities. It means that if a facilities and equipment in the school are

destroyed and are not repaired, the tendency is for vandals to destroy more of it

that will lead to this facilities and equipment to be abandoned. So that, it is very

important that facilities and equipment are well-tended, properly handle and

should be respected by the school because it have been observed as a potent

factor that can really help the students for their academic performance.
 4

Legal Bases

To support this study, we the researchers find a legal basis to strengthen

this and also to serve as an evidenced that school facilities and equipment can

really affect student’s academic performance.

Republic Act No. 7722 also known as the “Higher Education Act of 1994”

states that schools must maintain a facility. In cases when schools do not have

laboratory facility, head must have an agreement with another school with in

which students can undertake their study. It means that school facilities and

equipment are already part of the achievements of the students, that school

should find ways for the students to have an enough facilities and equipment

which are very vital when it comes to their academic performances.

RA No. 2067 also known as “Science Act of 1958”, an act which states in

integrating, coordinating, and intensifying scientific and technological research

and development and to foster invention and to provide funds. Giving additional

compensation in providing scientific facilities will promote a steady source of

competent scientific and technological manpower and resources. It means that

facilities and equipment should be given an attention and additional

compensation and also providing funds for it so that it will still promote a steady

source of competent scientific and technological manpower and resources that is

very necessary not only for the students to improve but also for the entire

environment.
 5

Related Literature

Oxford advance learner’s dictionary described a facility like the library as a

building or room in which collection of books, tapes, newspaper, etc. are kept for

people to read study and borrow. It provides a physical or digital access material

and may be a physical building or room or virtual space or both. According to

Frank (2003), a library must be up to date and at the same time allow access to

older materials. It must be properly supported financially to fund materials and

services among others. In his words, Farombi (1998) reiterated that school

facility like library may not be effective if the books therein are not adequate and

up to date as its impact may be meaningful if the library could be opened to the

student always for a considerable length of time in a school day. It means that

facility like the library should be given full attention and proper care because it

supports all functions of teaching and provides service and guidance to its

readers. School also must provide funds for having an adequate facilities and

equipment that is vert vital for the students when it comes to their academic

performances.

Writing on the role of school facilities in enhancing student performance,

Balogun (2004) submitted that no effective science education programme cannot

exist without facilities for teaching. This is because facilities enable learners or

student to develop scientific attitudes and problem solving skills. Dan Azumi

(1998) states that one of the most repeatedly mentioned problems causing poor

performance of student is lack of equipment and facilities. It means that is very

 6

important for schools to have enough facilities and equipment so that poor

academic performance of the students will be resolved.

Olutola (2004) notes that the availability of school facilities such as school

building and classroom contributes good academic achievement as they can

enhance effective teaching-learning process. He further states, that well sited

school building should be comfortable, pleasant and psychologically uplifting. It

should produce a passive physical setting that is educationally simulating, it

should produce a feeling of well-being among its occupants; the student and it

should support the educational process all these condition can only be met

through the cooperative effort of teachers especially the administrators. It means

that facilities like the school buildings and classrooms are very important for the

student for them feel comfortable and learn more. School administrators also are

responsive in providing enough facilities and equipment, finding ways and give

their efforts in improving their facility.

According to the US General Accounting Office (GAO) almost three-

fourths of existing US schools in 1996 was constructed before 1970. Of these

schools, about one-third of schools had need of extensive repair or replacement

and almost two-thirds had at least one inadequate building feature such as

substandard plumbing, roofing, or electrical systems. Moreover, 58-percent had

at least one unsatisfactory environmental condition such as inadequate

ventilation, acoustics, or physical security. Researchers have found most schools

lack 21st century facilities in the form on infrastructure, laboratories, and

instructional space. More than half do not have sufficiently flexible instructional
 7

space for effective teaching to take place. Thus, it means facility quality is an

important predictor of teacher retention and student learning. The physical and

emotional health of students and teachers depend on the quality of the physical

location, which makes establishing safe, healthy buildings essential.

Related Studies

Effective school leaders ensure that schools are organized in a manner

where the climate ensures continuous growth for the teacher and the sudents. In

most cases, a healthy school climate goes beyond the basics of safety and order,

but to a climate that is supportive and responsive to teachers’ perceptions of

facilities that emanate developmental responsiveness that are contributing

factors to the increase of student achievement (Mendels, 2012). According to

Uline and Tschannen-Moran (2008), state that when students are learning within

less than desireable facilities, student achievement is clearly less of focus, as

well teachers show very little motivation towards teaching and supporting student

learning within their classrooms. It means that if a school has lack of facilities and

equipment, it will give bad results to the students when it talks about their study

and it also affect teachers in their ways of teaching.

According to Ngozi, D. & Halima, S. (2015) that inadequate facility has an

effect on the meaningful teaching and learning and will also hinders student’s

high academic achievement. Their study recommends that the government

should equipped school facilities and the teachers adequately trained on the

effective utilization of the facilities for enriching tomorrow. It means that the
 8

school must provide adequate facilities and equipment in order for the students

to have a deeper understanding. The availability of school facilities cannot bring

about improvement in students’ academic performance if they are not properly

utilized, even though they may be in good conditions. Poor academic

performance of the students will continue if proper utilization of the school

facilities is not encouraged among teachers (Bello 2012). It means that utilization

of facilities and equipment may effect on the performance of the students, if it is

not handled properly, then it may decrease student’s achievements. One way to

solve this kind of problem which is the poor academic performance of the

students is that, teachers will encourage students on how to take good care of

the facilities and equipment of school.

Ani (2007) defines school facilities as the location of the school buildings,

the equipment in the school and other material resources that shall be provided

in the school for the purpose of enhancing teaching and learning processes. It

means that school facilities can also be taken to mean the site where the school

programmes and activities take place or the environment where the school

curriculum is implemented. The responsibility of every administrator is to ensure

that every child have access to quality education in school facilities that provide

an educational setting that is suit for teaching and learning. It also states that

implementing educational policies that results in high quality, high performance,

and well design and maintain school facilities have a direct impact on the

teaching and learning process (Building Educational Success Together 2005). It

means that school must established an effective rules and regulations that is
 9

addressed to the proper use and care of the facilities and equipment that help the

student to grow in terms of their performances. School is also obliged to give

adequate facilities to the students and let them use it in order for them to

increase their understanding

Stone (2009) defines the physical environment of a classroom as the

structural elements of a classroom such as desk placement and wall color

choice. The literature has identifies studies where the inadequate facility have a

negative impact on students and their academic performance. It is very important

for school to have adequate facilities for it will result a positive outcomes of the

students. For Sheets’ (2009) dissertation examines the relationship between the

conditions of school facilities and educational outcomes. He also finds that the

condition of school facilities have a measurable effect on student achievement

and teacher turnover. It means that facilities an equipment of the school should

be in a proper condition so that, teachers and students will not struggle in their

teaching and learning process. Moreover, schools with inadequate facilities,

portable classrooms or deferred maintenance have lower student achievement

on standardized tests.

According to Ezeanichinedu (2009), recreational facilities as type of the

instructional material and other infrastructural facilities such as building tools,

equipment and other teaching-learning aids that are very necessary for the

students to learn at leisure hours. The author however describes recreational

facilities as materials that are necessary for the students teaching and learning

process. It means that recreational facilities served as an aid to effective

 10

students’ academic performance. Akinfolarin (2008) defines facilities as a major

factor contributing to academic performance in the schools system. These

include classroom furniture, recreational equipment among others. It means that

school without enough facilities and equipment may result to the poor

achievement of the student while school having adequate and enough facilities

may result to student’s high academic performance. Facilities are very important

especially for the students for them to improve and grow.

The Healthy Schools Network (2013) suppports this statement positing:

“We do not do enough to protect our children: unhealthy schools impose a

grave injustice. Yet the environmental conditions of decayed facilities or facilities

close to hazards can damage children’s health and ability to learn. At the same

time, healthy school facilities can help children learn, grow and stay healthy”. It

means that decayed facilities or facilities close to hazards should be kept by the

school and not allowed the students to use it anymore because it don’t bring

good effects to them especially in their health.Several extensive researches on

school facilities have been carried out in the whole world of education. Previous

studies show that insufficient of facility involved teaching and learning

performance, both for student and staff health and safety (Uline and Moran,

2008). It is very important that there are enough facilities and equipment in the

school that is very vital to not only to have a better teaching and learning process

but also to ensure good health and safety for both students and teachers.
 11

Children’s Investment Fund (2009) reports that teachers working in good

spaces feel better about their work and more engage and positive with children.It

also states there that the physical environment on children’s social, emotional,

ang cognitive development is essential. School must give comfortable

workspaces for the teachers to teach well and also to have a good relationship to

the students. It also helps the students to develop physically and mentally.

For Musah, A. & Umar, A.A, (2017) facilities like laboratory play a big role

in the life of science students. When an institution does not have any adequate

laboratory equipment, it will have an effect on the performance and learning of

the students in science. Abdul Hakim (2005) finds from the teaching and learning

aspects that facilities play a significant role on teaching and learning process.

Suitable and sufficient facility will assist the students to be more focus on

learning process, and also to increase the quality as a student. It also really helps

them to perform their study well and increase their academic performances.

According to Musa (2013), lack of school facilities will result in

depreciation in the academic programme and performance of the students. It

means that school must have enough facilities so that students can perform their

study well and their academic performances also would not be decreased. For

Fabunmi (2007), school facilities when provided will aid teaching and learning

programme and consequently improve academic performances of students. With

respect to teachers, school facilities affect teacher retention, commitment, and

effort. With respect to students, school facilities affect health, behavior,

engagement, learning, and growth in achievement. Thus, school must provide

 12

facilities and equipment that will serve as an important predictor of teacher

retention and student learning.

The Problem

Statement of the Problem

The importance of school faciliies or amenities in the development and

growth of the educational sector cannot be over-emphasized. Many schools in

the Philippines today do not have certain school facilities that can make teaching

and learning to be easier and enjoyable to both the teachers and the students.

The major purpose of this study is to determine whether the school facilities

and equipments affect the academic performance of the students in SNI in the

academic year 2019-2020.

Specifically, this study will answer the following questions:

1. What is the profile of the respondents?

1.1 Age, and;

1.2 Gender?

2. What equipment or school facilities are rarely observed in the school?

3. What are the possible effects of inadequate school facilities and equipment to

the academic performance of the students?

4. What is the academic performance of the Grade 10 students?

5. Is there a significant correlation between the school facilities and the academic

performance of the student?

 15

Null Hypothesis

There is no significant corelation between the school facilities and equipments

and respondents’ academic performance.

Significance of the Study

This study will benefit as an eye opener to the following:

Students. They can recognize the extent facilities and equipment which

SNI are lacked off and that inadequate school facilities has effects on their

academic performance.

Teachers. This study will serve as basis in providing an improvise

equipments for their effective teaching.

School administrators. This will be an eye opener for the to provide

adequate facilities and equipment in the school for their students.

The Researchers. They will disseminate the findings and outputs of the

study to the teachers, school administration and concern students for

delivering and implementing adequate facilities and equipments.

Future Researchers. This study will serve as a guide in conducting further

study in relation with this problem.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
 16

Design

This study will be designed to describe the actual picture of the facilities

and equipments in SNI thus, descriptive survey method with the aid of a

standardized questionnaire. The profile of the respondents will be gathered from

the record of the adviser and then it will be supported by disseminating the

questionnaire.

Environment and Participants

This study will be conducted at Sto. Niño Institute of Getafe, Bohol Inc.

located in Poblacion, Getafe, Bohol between the Municipality of Buenavista and

Municipality of Talibon. It is approximately 90 kilometer away from Tagbilaran

City. The school has twenty (20) full time teachers, headed by Sr. Ma. Juliet A.

Nogueras, DST as the School Principal and Rev. Fr. Lloyd Lester A. Liwagon as

the School Director. This school was purposely chosen for it has been observed

that there is inadequate facilities and equipment.

The respondents of the research are the selected Grade 10 students of

Sto. Niño Institute, Getafe, Bohol Inc. Out of 610 enrollees, 40 Grade 10

students were taken as the respondents in the A.Y. 2018-2019

Instrument
 17

The researchers will use standardized questionnire as the main tool in data

gathering. Before they distribute the questionnaire to the respondents, the

researchers refer first to their adviser.

There is only one questionnaire that will be distributed to the respondents

and this questionnaire was composed of three parts, the first part is for the profile

of the respondents, the second part is for the main questions, and the third part is

the researchers questionnaire being made. The respondents are ask to answer

all the items honestly. To help the respondents understand clearly the questions,

the researchers explain further the questions. For the level of observation and

the possible effects of school facilities and equipment, their answers were scaled

through 3-Always Observed, 2-Sometimes Observed, 1-Never Observed.

Procedure

Before the researchers distribute the questionnaire to the respondents, they

will first ask permission to the adviser to conduct this study. And then, with the

consent of the adviser, they personally have an authentic supervision of the

questionnaire to the respondents. The questionnaire is administer to Grade 10

students.

After the questionnaires are retrieved, all the gathered data will be tallied,

tabulated, analyzed, and interpreted statistically to test the hypothesis. Their

findings will become the basis for conclusions and recommendations.

Scope and Limitations

 18

This study will be delimited to the Grade 10 students of SNI who will be

affected by lack of facilities and equipment. The study will focus on the extent on

the possible school facilities and equipments, level of classification of school

facilities and equipments in SNI, and the correlation between school facilities and

equipments and the academic performance of the students.

There were limitations meet in conducting this study like the selection of the

respondents, due to the limited time given to the respondents to finish this study,

the researchers only select 40 grade 10 students as their respondents. Another

limitation is the limited sources for the related studies and related literature. The

researchers have only chosen 40 grade 10 students but only in the 2nd quarter

grades.

CHAPTER 2

PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

This chapter presents the information gathered through the questionnaire,

classified and tabulated based on the specific problems of the study. Such data

were analyzed, interpreted, and the findings of which were made as basis of

drawing the conclusions and recommendations.

To meet the purpose of this study, the researchers use simple percentage,

weighted mean, chi square test of independency and chi square test of

contingency as formula.

I. Distribution of Questionnaire

The table 1, shows the Distribution of Questionnaire in which out of 40

questionnaires, 40 (100%) were given and there were 40 (100%) questionnaires

were retrieved.

II. Respondents’ Profile

Table 2, shows the Respondents’ Profile that is composed of Gender and

Age.

1. Gender

Number of respondents’ gender is shown in this study in order to find out

What gender is dominant in this study.

Table 2.1

Respondents’ Gender

Gender Frequency Percentage Rank

Male 15 37.5% 2
Female 25 62.5% 1
Total 40 100%

Table 2.1 shows that out of 40 respondents, 25 (62.5%) are female while

15 (37.5%) are male. The same study with Otieno (2012) where female students

are dominant in his study therefore, female respondents has the greater

population in this study.

2. Age

Respondents’ age is also shown here to find out on what age has the

major population in this study and if the dominant age fits to the appropriate age

for Grade 10.

 26

Table 2.2 shows that among the four ages given, there are 30 (75%)

belong to the age of 16, while 7 (17.5%) are 15 years old, 2 (5%) are 18 years

old and above, and 1 (2.5%) of them belong to the age of 17. Philippine K-12

program stated that the appropriate age for Grade 10 is 15 years old, therefore,

the dominant age of this study which is 16 years old does not fit to the normal

age for Grade 10.

III. Level of Observation of School Facilities and Equipment

Figuring out the level of observation of school facilities and equipment is

very important to find out which equipment or facilities are lacking in SNI.

As shows in the table, Clinic ranks first with a weighted mean of 2.55 which falls

to Always Observed while Audio visual disc ranks last with a weighted mean of
 28

1.75 which falls to Sometimes Observed. The general weighted mean comes up

to 2.14, which falls to, sometimes observed and as interpreted that SNI has

inadequate facilities and equipment. This study is supported by Muhammad

(2017) which states that most of the facilities in Sokoto State in Nigeria are

broken down and are filled with damaged equipment. Furthermore, SNI has

facilities and equipment but it is lacking and as observed, the available facilities

and equipment are not well utilized.

IV. Possible Effects of Inadequate School Facilities and Equipment.

It is vital to identify what are the effects of inadequate school facilities and

equipment. This study shows the 10 possible effects to identify which effect that

directly affects the respondents’ academic performance.

effect. After, the general weighted mean comes up to 2.04 which fall to

Sometimes Observed and as interpreted that the given effects are experienced

by the students most of the time. This is supported by Ogbu, et. Al (2015), his

study also claims that having inadequate instructional material like the laboratory

equipment could reduce student’s interest when it comes to experiment in

science. Therefore, inadequate school facilities and equipment has direct effects

on students’ academic performance.

V. Academic Performance of the Grade 10 students

It is very necessary to have the academic performance of the students since it

is one of the variables of the study and also in order for us to know if it is being

affected by the other variable which is the facilities and equipment.

Table 5 illustrates the findings out of 40 Grade 10 students, twenty-two (22)

(55%) students got an outstanding rating, sixteen (16) (40%) students belong to

Very Good level, and two (2) (5%) students belong to Good level.

As shown in the table above, majority of the respondents got an

outstanding rating which means that most of them have an outstanding level of

academic performance that enable them to perform well in answering the

questionnaires given to them by the researchers. However, there are still

students who belong to very good and good level which means that these

students have poor level of academic performance and it drives them to find

difficulty in answering the given question.

Table 6 shows the correlation between School Facilities and Equipment

The Chi-square test of Contingency was used in determining the

relationship between School Facilities and Equipment and Students’ Academic

Performance. From the tabulation of data, it is resulted that there is significant

correlation between the school facilities and equipment and students’ academic

performance, since the computed x2-value (17.10522698) is greater than the

critical value (5.991). Hence, the null hypothesis is rejected, therefore, school

facilities and equipment has effects on the students’ academic performance.

According to Oginni (2013), school facilities and equipment adequacy or

availability could affect the students’ academic performance. Thus, lack of

facilities and equipment is a very good predictor of students’ achievement in their

academic performance.

CHAPTER 3

SUMMARY, FINDINGS, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

This chapter contains the summary of all the topics, findings gathered in

the study, the conclusions that are formed after the conduct and tabulation of the

study and the recommendations that are possible in improving or making

changes with regard to the findings of the study.

GENERAL SUMMARY

The general reason of this study was to determine the correlation between

the school facilities and equipment and the academic performance of the

students in the first semester of the academic year 2019-2020. Particularly,

respondents were directed to answer these following research questions:, What

equipment or school facilities are rarely observed in the school, what are the

possible effects of inadequate school facilities and equipment to the academic

performance of the students, what is the academic performance of the grade 10

 35

students, and is there a significant correlation between the school facilities and

the academic performance.

Using the random sampling technique, 40 Grade 10 students of Sto. Niño

Institute of Getafe, Bohol, Inc. was taken to answer the provided questionnaire.

The gathered data were tallied, tabulated, analyzed and interpreted. In

interpreting the data, the appropriate statistical treatments were used, Simple

Percentage was used to determine the profile of the respondents, Weighted

Mean for analyzing the possible effects of inadequate school facilities and the

level of observation and lastly, Chi Square Test of Contingency was used to

determine the significant correlation between the school facilities and equipment

and the academic performance of the students.

FINDINGS

A careful analysis interpretation of data revealed these following findings:

1. Out of 40 questionnaires, 40 (100%) were given and there were 40

(100%) questionnaires were retrieved.

2. Most of the respondents are female with the total number of 25 (62.5%)

while there are 15 (37.5%) male student; therefore out of 40 respondents

taken from the Grade 10 students, female has the greater population.

3. In the given ages: 15, 16, 17, and 18 above, the age of 16 is dominant

because out of 40 respondents, 30 (75%) belongs to 16 years old which

does not fit to normal age for Grade 10.

 36

4. Given are the general classification of school facilities and equipment

namely: Internet/ICT facilities, Computer sets, Educational magazines,

Projectors, Audio visual disc, Library, Sci/TLE laboratory facilities,

Adequate Furniture, Text books, Bulletin board, Art gallery, Classrooms,

Stationaries (pencils, pens, erasers, mathematical sets), Adequate toilets,

Clinic, First aid kit, Long jump facilities, Debate equipment, Playgrounds,

and Common rooms. Based on the result, Clinic ranks first which falls to

Always Observed while Audio visual disc ranks last which falls to

Sometimes Observed and all the result using the weighted mean formula

belongs to Sometimes Observed which only means that SNI has

inadequate facilities and equipment.

5. Based on the results, students usually experience those possible effects

given due to inadequate school facilities and equipment for the weighted

mean comes up to 2.04 which falls to Sometimes Observed and as

interpreted as usually experienced. Therefore inadequate school facilities

and equipment could affect the academic performance of the students.

6. Most of the respondents got outstanding grades while few of them have a

poor grade. Their performance is affected by the facilities and equipment

in SNI.

7. Based on the result, there is significant correlation between the school

facilities and equipment and the respondents’ academic performance.

Therefore, school facilities and equipment have direct relationship

between the respondents’ academic performance.

 37

CONCLUSION

A thorough finding concluded this;

It is evident from the findings that there is a significant correlation between

school facilities and equipment and the academic performance. It means that

school facilities and equipment have effects on the academic performance of the

students. When students are exposed to used adequate facilities and equipment

and of being hands on in performing their study, they will tend to perform better

and will result to a high academic performance. But to those students who

performed their study without enough facilities and equipment, it could affect

them and will result to have a low performance.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Based on the findings and conclusion, the researchers highly recommend

the following:

School Administrators. Based on this finding, it is recommended that

they should provide adequate facilities and equipment for the improvement of the

school and most especially for the benefits of the students learning process.

Teachers. It is recommended that even without adequate facilities and

equipment; they would find ways and show efforts just to help the students

perform their study and enable the students to still get a lot of learnings and gain

knowledge without depending to the facilities and equipment in the school.

 38

Future Researchers. It is recommended that they will conduct the same

study as this one. It is also recommended that they will include all the students in

a certain environment to get more accurate data because not only Grade 10

students have the direct effect of inadequate facilities and equipment.

Students. It is recommended that they must suggest to their teachers to

use the available facilities and equipment or suggest to have contribution to buy

the lacking facilities so that they could perform their study well that will lead them

to have high academic performances.

Researchers. It is recommended that after this study, they must send a

formal letter to the school administrators with regards to the adequate facilities

and equipment.

PROPOSED ENHANCEMENT MEASURES

Rationale

A proposed program for development is made in order to help and

encourage not only the school administrators but especially the students to

develop and improve the School Facilities and Equipment in order to have a

good and a high academic performance.

With this program, the researchers have high hopes that the students as

well as the teachers will be able to understand fully the effects that was given by

lack of School Facilities and Equipment to the Academic Performance of the

 39

students. Thus, this will be able to help the success of the students in school and

in their lives.

Objectives

The objectives of the proposed program for the development are as

follows:

1. To understand the importance and impact of having adequate school

facilities and equipment and also to find out the possible effects of it with

regard to the academic performance of the students.

2. To give importance to the performance of the students not only

comprehensively and meaningfully but most especially academically.

3. To improve students’ skills and level of competence most especially in

terms of their academic performance, this simplifies an effect to school

facilities and equipment.

Schedule of Implementation

The implementation of this program will be effective in School year 2019-

2020.

Evaluative Measures

The school administration may take an action about the researchers

study. They may implement a learning environment that is pleasant and should

give proper attention to facilities and equipment in order for the students to be
 40

interested in their study. With that, the Academic Performance of the students

may be enhanced and improved.
