SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter presents the summary of the findings, the conclusions drawn from the findings, and the
researchers’ recommendations.
Summary of the Findings
Based on the data gathered, the following data were revealed:
1. The perceived status of the students’ environmental status in terms of physical and psychological is
satisfactory, as reflected on the overall mean perception which is 3.75.
1.1 School environment obtained an overall mean of 3.88 described as satisfactory.
1.2 Home environment obtained an overall mean of 3.82 described as satisfactory.
1.3 Family obtained an overall mean of 3.82 described as satisfactory.
1.4 Friends obtained an overall mean of 3.61 described as satisfactory.
1.5 Peer relationships obtained an overall mean of 3.55. described as satisfactory.
2. The level of academic performance of Grade 10 students in English is very satisfactory, as reflected
on the mean grade which is 86.51%.
3. The relationship that exists between the students’ environmental status in terms of physical and
psychological, and the English performance is negligible to slight. The following are the physical
environment indicators and their respective rxy values: school environment – 0.20; and home
environment – 0.27. The following are the psychological environment indicators and their respective
rxy values: family – 0.20; friends – 0.21; and peer relationships – 0.16.
Conclusions
Based on the aforementioned findings, the following conclusions were hereby drawn.
1. The Grade 10 students views their physical and psychological environment as satisfactory.
2. The English performance of Grade 10 students is very satisfactory.
3. The environmental status of Grade 10 students does not significantly impact their English
performance.
4. The null hypothesis, which states that there is no significant relationship between the
environmental status and English performance, is therefore slightly accepted.
Recommendations
On the basis of the conclusions, the researchers hereby recommend the following:
1. The school administration should continue providing a conducive learning environment by
maintaining classrooms to be comfortable to study in as well as providing sufficient and accessible
instructional and study materials. Parents should also properly manage the home’s organization to
ensure cleanliness for their children’s comfortability.
2. Parents should address problems within the family in order to maintain a mutual relationship with each
other. They should also continue to guide their children in choosing their friends and peers without
restricting them from socializing with others. Teachers should also guide students on building
camaraderie with their classmates through the use of various group activities in order for them to
positively influence each other.
3. Though there is no significant impact between environmental status and English performance, the
researchers still recommend that the psychological and physical environmental status of student still
be considered to be an influencing factor in student's learning process.
4. For other researchers, it is recommended to research other environmental factors such as PsychoSocial, Gender-Based and Socio-Cultural status which may influence student performances.
