Discipline: Education
Abstract:
This study examined the demographic profile, and educational challenges in terms of access to education, learning
environment, support, and curriculum, as well as aspirations, and relationships between variables among Batak parent
and student respondents in Puerto Princesa City, Palawan. It involved 24 learner respondents and 24 parents. Utilizing
a survey with both close-ended and open-ended questions, the study employed a qualitative and quantitative research
design, collecting relevant data through interview, data were analyzed using frequency count and percentage.
Additionally, mean scores were employed to evaluate educational challenges. Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient
was used to assess the relationship between student competency and perceived challenges. Results showed that the
majority of parents were female, had finished elementary school, were aged between 32 and 45, were pure-blooded
Batak, and were beneficiaries of the 4Ps program. Among the students, there were equal numbers of respondents in
grades 5 and 6, mostly aged between 10 and 13, with a majority as grade 6 pupils. Parents and students perceived a
moderately low level of challenges in access to education and curriculum while reporting a low level of perception
regarding educational support and learning environment. Despite the challenges encountered in education, both
parents and learners remained optimistic about life. The study found no significant relationship between the
demographic profiles of the parent respondents and the learner respondents concerning educational challenges.
Similarly, there was no significant relationship between the demographic profiles of the parents and learner
respondents regarding their aspirations, all with their educational challenges and their aspirations. The study
recommended further exploration of additional factors that highly influence the education of the Batak.
