Abstract

This study determined the impact of classroom management techniques on the academic performance of Grade 6 learners in public elementary schools in San Fabian, District II, Division of Pangasinan II during School Year 2024–2025. Specifically, it examined the level of impact of teacher-centered, student-centered, acceptance, assertive, behavior modification, and success classroom management techniques; determined whether there was a significant difference between the perceptions of teachers and school heads; identified the problems encountered by teachers; and proposed a plan of action to improve classroom management. The study employed a descriptive research design using a questionnaire as the primary data-gathering instrument. The respondents consisted of forty-six (46) Grade 6 teachers and fifteen (15) school heads from fifteen (15) public elementary schools. Findings revealed that the different classroom management techniques had a high level of impact on the academic performance of Grade 6 learners. No significant difference was found between the perceptions of teachers and school heads, indicating that their perceptions were generally similar. The most serious problems encountered by teachers included difficulty in integrating learning competencies, difficulty in using appropriate instructional strategies for multilevel groups, and learner absenteeism. Based on the findings, a plan of action was designed to improve the implementation of classroom management techniques and support the academic performance of Grade 6 learners.
