Abstract

This study examined the impact of the Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) on the academic performance and class attendance of pupils at Cabulisan Elementary School, Inopacan, Leyte. Using a quantitative-comparative approach, the study analyzed academic records and attendance data of 68 4Ps beneficiaries and 63 non-beneficiaries. Results revealed that 4Ps pupils performed better across major subjects, particularly in Filipino (+2.94%), Math (+1.34%), and Science (+1.00%), with a 1.71% higher overall average. Attendance rates were also consistently higher among 4Ps recipients, with monthly gains of +2.00% to +2.86%. T-tests confirmed statistically significant differences in performance and attendance between groups, affirming that 4Ps participation positively influences educational outcomes. Demographic factors such as income, age, and gender were evenly distributed, ruling them out as performance indicators. The findings support the effectiveness of conditional cash transfers in improving academic achievement and school participation, especially in rural communities with limited resources.
