Abstract:
The research assessed the 21st-century skills proficiency level of Grade 12 students
through the Basic Education Exit Assessment. A total of six hundred and fifty-one (651)
students served as the respondents of the study. The study revealed that Grade 12
students’ proficiency dominated (1) problem-solving skills and information literacy. Letran
Calamba Senior High School satisfied the requirements of DEPED for the BEEA including
critical thinking, information literacy, and problem-solving. This study can help institutions
evaluate their practices by tracking the performance of components of their assessment
system, which is generally referred to as national assessments. Consequently, the
researchers strongly suggest that school administrators assist in evaluating the
effectiveness of education service delivery utilized by teachers, which can further improve
the overall performance and accomplishment of learners.
