Abstract:

This study determined the learning support of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries towards the educational competence in Viray-Lising Integrated School, Polomolok West District, Schools Division of South Cotabato. It utilized a descriptive-correlational design to ascertain the extent of learning support concerning parenting, communication, volunteering, home learning, decision-making, and community collaboration, alongside the educational competence of learner beneficiaries. The study's respondents comprised fifty-five (55) parents of 4Ps beneficiaries. Furthermore, the mean was employed to assess the level of educational competence of the learners. Meanwhile, the Pearson r moment correlation was employed to examine the relationship between the two variables. Additionally, a thematic analysis was employed to classify the responses of the FGD participants, which ultimately corroborate the quantitative findings. The study revealed that the extent of parental learning support concerning the specified domains was great. Accordingly, the learners demonstrated a satisfactory degree of academic proficiency. Consequently, the results indicated an insignificant association between the two variables. Additionally, three themes emerged: basic necessities, educational support, and inspiring change. Finally, an intervention program was established to augment the parental educational support for the beneficiaries of the 4Ps, aimed at improving the learners' academic competence.
