Abstract:
One of the major effects of the COVID-19
pandemic is the sudden shift to distance learning among basic
education schools in the country. With this, stakeholders play a
critical role in helping pupils cope with the demands of the said
modality. This study was conducted to determine the school,
parents, and community support in the new normal and their
relationship to pupils’ academic success in Alcala East District,
Division of Cagayan for the School Year 2020-2021. A mixed
method of research was utilized employing both quantitative and
qualitative research designs. A stratified random sampling was
used in this study to determine the total number of participants
from Grades 4 – 6. The results revealed that the extent of support
of the school and the parents for pupil’s academic success was to
a moderate extent. Meanwhile, the extent of support of the
community for pupil’s academic success was low. Furthermore,
there is no significant difference on the extent of support of the
parents in terms of the profile variables. Moreover, pupilparticipants had a moderate level of motivation in learning
during the COVID-19 pandemic. There was also a moderately
favorable attitude of pupils in modular learning in the midst of
the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, the academic performance
of pupils in modular learning approached proficiency with a
mean grade of 81.01. In addition, there is a significant
relationship between the extent of support of the school, parents,
and the community and the level of academic success of pupils in
terms of motivation, attitude towards learning, and overall
academic performance. Results of the qualitative data revealed
four major problems encountered by pupils in modular distance
learning which include the following: (1) lack of academic
support, (2) poor internet and mobile connection, (3) physical
and mental stress, and (4) overloaded lesson activities. The study
concludes that school, parents, and community support for
pupils’ academic success during the new normal is important.
