Abstract:

The main purpose of the study is to determine the direct impact of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program on the Education, Health, and Nutritional Status of Learners Beneficiaries in the Third Congressional District of Quezon. It specifically aimed to find out the status of the learner-beneficiaries before and during the time of being a 4Ps CCT recipient in terms of education, health, and nutrition. The study also determined the assistance received by the learner-beneficiaries in terms of the mentioned aspects. With a total of 348 respondents from the entire Third congressional district, the researcher was able to use the descriptive quantitative method. The respondents were grade 6 pupils from public elementary schools of Bondoc Peninsula and are all 4P’s beneficiaries. The researcher considered the validity and reliability of their data. It was found that the 4P’s program has a positive impact on the educational outcomes of the beneficiaries, particularly on their GWA with higher rates of subject passing and school attendance. However, further analysis is needed to fully understand the impact of the program on the student’s educational outcomes. Results also showed that becoming a 4P's CCT recipient has had a positive impact on the health of individuals, resulting in a significant reduction in the frequency and severity of illnesses experienced by individuals. It was also found that the 4P's CCT program had a positive impact on the nutrition status of the recipients by increasing the frequency of meals consumed, improving BMI, and providing access to vitamins and that the 4Ps program has a positive impact on the lifestyle of beneficiaries before and during the time of being a recipients, particularly in terms of health, nutrition, education, household expenditure, and income. The 4P's CCT program has had a positive impact on the lifestyle characteristics of the individuals who became recipients of the program. Specifically, the program appears to have helped increase the income of the households, reduce gambling and vices and did not lead to any increase in luxurious lifestyles. Finally, the null hypothesis concludes that there is a significant difference in the status of the learner-beneficiaries before and after becoming a 4Ps CCT recipient for all four profiles.
