ABSTRACT
The tardy behavior of a student can also negatively affect the academic performance in
school. Arriving late to school can also mean that students miss out on activities designed to their
lessons.’ Tardy Behavior’ is the term ascribed to students who suffer from tardiness, which is
defined as the condition of not being on time. The descriptive research on which this study based
explored the impact of tardiness in academic performance among the Grade 11 STEM and
respondents answered the surveys regarding the impact of tardiness in their academic
performance and the possible solution to prevent it. The study found out that most of the students
agree on having MWF and TTHS schedule to prevent them from being tardy. Students agreed
that during rainy seasons it would be fair if time will be extended from 7:15-7:30 before flag
ceremony will start, this will help them to decrease the numbers of late every morning. Students
also agreed that tardiness caused them to miss a lot of important lessons and sometimes it cause
them to lost their focus resulting for them to be greatly affected on their academic performance.
Based on the findings, the researchers suggest that all students, particularly to those students who
are not as academically strong, to be informed about the importance influence of class attendance
on academic performance with the use of APPLY PROGRAM (Always Practice Productivity to
Lighten Your life). This program aims to have a proper time management and be motivated on
academic performance.

I. INTRODUCTION
2011), the researchers found that students who are frequently late to school often miss out on
important opening announcements and academic activities. Teachers can become frustrated as
late students disrupt instruction, often requiring reteaching of what they have missed. Tardy
behavior can also negatively affect the overall classroom environment,’ the study says. One of
the most important aspects of a school is that it is organized, scheduled and predictable. For the
students will depend on the structure of the day. In La Consolacion College of Novaliches, the
flag ceremony happens every Monday to Friday that will start at 7:15 in the morning. The
students are required to arrive at school on or before the said time. They know where they have
to be and when. The main purpose in attending to school is to learn and that schedules are in
place precisely to help them focus on that learning. But when students are repeatedly tardy, these
routines are disrupted. Students who are often late are suffering more settling in and mastering
routines. It will cause negative impact on their learning because those students who are arriving
late receive hours of instruction and it will waste their time, which should be their class time.
Arriving late to school can also mean that students miss out on activities designed to
build connections with their peers, potentially impacting their social interactions and creating a
greater sense of alienation from their classmates. For when a student continuously shows up late
in class, other students can be distracted. Part of having education is learning to be responsible.

The school experience teaches students how to meet expectations. They need to learn to follow
schedules, obey rules, complete assignments and keep track of their materials. Learning
According to the research, lateness to school started long time ago, everywhere in a way
that cannot be controlled in recent time. The problem of lateness has eaten deep into Nigeria
children the problem of pupil’s lateness to school has now turn to national problem. Lateness
merely means arriving after expected time. Oxford advanced learners dictionary defined lateness
as arriving after the expected arrange or usual time. It is after the right, fixed, usual or expected
time; therefore, lateness is the opposite of early. Children commonly miss their school or coming
lately because of their usual habits, such as waking up late due to laziness: rushing of undone
assignment, unprepared bath, breakfast or meals, clothes, their pack lunch etc. and waiting for
companions or friends coming to school the bus is late; and sometimes because of some
problems in their parent that affects them and interest in coming to school seeing they’re with
misunderstandings. A financial support, kids like having many delightful possessions. They
would be and seeing their classmates with something they don’t have or sometimes they are
ashamed of coming to school. A traffic congestion is another too. According to the recent study
by a Serbia-based research firm, revealed that the Philippines ranked ninth in having a deplorable
traffic situation in the world. In the number collated data on the traffic situation of 88 countries
for its traffic Index, it shows that the Philippines obtained a traffic index of Bangladesh, Jordan
and Iran, the Philippines also ranked fourth in having the worst traffic situation in Asia.

III. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
This section presents and discusses theories that are applicable to the research topic.
These theories are help to explain the concept behind the research and establish the relationship
In 1905, Albert Einstein proposed a theory of General Relativity which states that
massive objects cause a distortion in space-time, which is felt as gravity. General relativity
predicted that the space-time around Earth would be not only warped but also twisted by the
planet's rotation.
Later on, based from the idea of Albert Einstein, a San Francisco journalist, critic and
author named Gerald Nachman, come up a theory and that was the “Theory of Relative
Tardiness” that laid out from his books on the Golden age of Radio. He stated the following
reasons why people are tardy in the morning; First, because of their internal clocks that made
them move slowly or not at all, second, because of the curvature of the earth and third their
inability to get off the phone. In extreme cases, some people have no internal clocks at all, that is

Abstract
This study attempted to answer the following research questions among others: Has
gender any relation with students’ late-coming to school? Has age any relation with students’
late-coming to school? Do senior students come to school late than junior? Four secondary
schools were selected for the study. Sample of sixty students’ late comers were administered
with the questionnaire within a period of two weeks. The instrument was partly adopted, while
the other part was self-constructed. The instrument was validated by expert in educational
administration and language. Data collected was analyzed using simple percentages and
frequencies for easy interpretation and understanding. The results indicate that late coming to
school is higher among female students, those within the ages of 16-20 are frequent late comers
and senior among others. It was recommended that parents (especially mothers) should reduce
engaging female students with home activities especially in the morning; school administrators
and teachers should increase effort on counseling strategies to adolescent students due to their
10
change in perception and school rules. Keywords: Educational managers, Late-coming, School
system
Synthesis
Based on the study, all stake holders in education must consider students late coming to
school as a major variable or factor for the success of quality education. Late coming to school
by students could be as a result in a factor, thus teachers and school administrators ought to work
hard with the view to reducing the problem. Punctuality of a child to school could change him to
become a better individual who uses his time judiciously in future career. Reduction of students
late coming may serve as a means for the reduction of mass failure in national examinations.
More commitment on the side of the students to education is needed to better their academic
performance.
The findings of the study suggest that education managers are expected to include
societal orientation as part of school annual program of activities. This will go along in reducing
causes of students’ late coming to school. The orientation could be though parents-teachers
association. It is worthy of note that the success of every school manager is not a beautiful
program plan but also the relevance of the plan in solving educational problems. This also agrees
with the new trend of collaborative effort among education stakeholders, with the view to
increasing education successes. Education managers should among other things forecast

2. A Review of Factors Associated with Student’s Lateness Behavior and Dealing
Strategies.
Abstract
This study aimed to systematically review studies that investigate factors associated with
student’s lateness behavior and dealing strategies. There were at least 24 papers and reports
reviewed regarding lateness behavior. The related journal papers and reports on factor associated
with student’s lateness behavior and dealing strategies were downloaded with cut off limit from
1991 to 2013. The papers and reports were then analyzed and organized according to the
definitions of lateness and various factors associated with student’s lateness behavior and dealing
strategies. However, the finding of this study indicates that there was conclusive evidence from
the reviewed literature regarding student’s lateness behavior, yet the number of articles
supporting it was small. Finally, conclusion of the study indicates the dealing with disruptive
behavior in the classroom is one of the most challenging aspects of being a professor and the
study recommended further investigations and analysis could be beneficial to obtain a complete
vision of patterns of lateness behavior and coping strategies for the student. Keywords:
Synthesis
This paper investigates about the factors associated with student's lateness behaviour and
strategies. There is numerous understanding why students are being late in the class like traffic
jam, parent's care or other responsibilities that prevent them being punctual in attending a class.
12
If the student's come to class late there is a possibility that can interrupt the class, it can distract
other students and it also led to get a low grade. ETC’s (2009) reported that the attendance and
punctuality policy clearly state that “regular and punctual attendance is of paramount importance
in ensuring that all students have full access to the curriculum. Valuable learning time is lost
when students are absent or late". Therefore, there is a high possibility that if the student
becomes late he/she may not acquire valuable learning. That is why students should attend all
learning and teaching sessions. Based on this study there are 18 factors associated with student’s
lateness: Poor Organization, going late to bed, Family background, Cultural background, College
Challenge the instructor's authority, Economic Influences, Maturity, Routine, Beginning of class
in not important, Logistical reasons, Students' expectation about the instructors, Students
variables, Instructors late. Also, the paper also studies the dealing strategies which can be used to
improve students lateness behaviour: (1) Provide full information in course syllabus and policies
regarding class attendance and tardiness, (2) If you have noticed problems with classes in the
past (for example, students who repeatedly are late for an early morning class), present the
current class with a list of the issues and “negotiate” a consensus on how these issues will be
dealt with this time, (3) Ask yourself if you have done anything to contribute to the issue, Talk
with colleagues about similar situations and how they handled them, (4) Deal with any
significant issues of disruption in private (your office with the door open). Dealing with an issue
in front of others can cause both the students and the instructor to be affected, (5) Put yourself in
the student’s shoes and try to see what is the motivation behind this disruption issue, etc.
Lateness among students is persistent and important issue and it is one of the most challenging
aspects as a professor to deal with such behaviour in the classroom. In addition, instructors
13
should be more realistic about the situation and helped the students to prevent being late in class.
Moreover, lateness could affect students’ performance and lead to low grade averages. Weade
stated that students have a better attendance and punctuality will receive a higher-grade point
average. While students with poor attendance and punctuality gets a lower grade point average.

students in developing countries. Since the problem is to 70% student home based, there is need
for the student/parent to help identify and proffer solutions to this quality disturbing problems
that could lead to students’ dropout from school. identified illness, permitted leave, voluntary
financial hardship, age, social class, geographical area, truancy and institutional influence.
School related factors, such as; teachers’ attitude, poor administration, high cost of education,
illness due to weather condition such as cold, temperature grey days causes absenteeism among
students. Harsh school rules and regulations could cause absenteeism i.e. corporal punishment;
families where children prepare themselves for school and parent to work. Truancy among
students is caused by school-related reasons. Bullied by school staff, boredom, dislike of teachers
and avoidance of tests. These are without parents’ knowledge School authorities authorized
absence for ailments, medical and death in the family. Parent particularly in rural areas keep their
children at home for domestic activities on market and community festival days. In crises areas,

14
male students. This is as a result of their involvement in domestic activities by their parent.
Distance to school, school discipline, family background and school location are among causes
Synthesis
The study shows the causes of being frequent absentee and being late in school some of
the reason are as follows: lack of transportation parent poor financial condition, inability of
parent to provide instructional materials and teachers non-commitment to the teaching of their
subjects as causes of absenteeism. Going late to bed because of watching films and home
movies, resulting into wake up late in the morning, distance to school and keeping friends who
are not students are causes of lateness among secondary school students in Nigeria. The result of
this study showed that both the school authority and parents are involved in the factor that
generates absenteeism and lateness among students. There is no significant difference between
the views of principals, teachers, parents and students in the identified causes and possible
solutions to the problems of absenteeism and lateness among secondary school students in
Nigeria as revealed in this study. Also, the causes of absenteeism are not significantly related to
causes of lateness. The study revealed that only 2.94% of the causes of lateness influences
absenteeism that is students are not absent from school because of distance wake up late or
keeping friends who are not students. However, poor parent financial status could result to

1. Causes and Effects of Tardiness of the Senior High School Students of Southern de
Abstract
Many Senior High school students come late to school and as a result; academic
subjects will be affected as well as the grades, and they will be able to miss classes as it
affects their class performance that is why every Senior High school student should
eliminate the cause regarding tardiness. A tardy student presents a lack of responsibility. Being
tardy all the time to classis a sign of carelessness and a waste of time. Being on time is not
only a duty for students, but also a part of good manners, respect and reputation. Hence,
student should know how to value their time and do their best not to be tardy at all times.
Tardiness is not much of an issue for students nowadays; to them it seems to be a normal
thing. Nonetheless, some reasons that cause the tardiness among students can tell whether it is
being committed or not or being peer pressured. When students come to class late, it can
disrupt the flow of a lecture or discussion, distract other students, impede learning, and
generally erode class morale. Moreover, if left unchecked, lateness can become chronic and
spread throughout the class because there are a number of possible reasons students arrive to
class late.
Synthesis
Students of Southern de Oro Philippines college notice that many senior high school students
come late to school. And because of that academic performance of those students also affect.
They state that being on time is not only a duty for students but also a part of good manners.

They state that every student should know how to value their time. Tardiness nowadays is a
normal thing and ignored for some of the students. But if tardiness ignored it can lead to some
major problem. There are number of reasons why students arrive to class late. Some reasons of
tardiness can’t tell if it is whether committed or not and when students come to class late it can
disrupt the flow of a lecture or discussion and they can also miss important lessons in class.

ABSTRACT
Punctuality is one of the virtues beyond reproach. Much of the time and wealth will be
saved if this virtue will be carried out to the system of every responsible citizen. Punctuality will
encompass all of the positive action in all aspects. Though it was less appreciated in other
situations like productivity against punctuality, none the less, it is still very vital in situations that
needed it most.
This study will determine the factors affecting students in their daily routine during
school days. Always and often times being tardy in the flag ceremony, in attending classes after
recess time in the morning and afternoon class sessions and during the first period in the
afternoon class session. There are observed instances that during their transfer of room in their
specialization subjects and other activities that needs outdoor activities, they are behind schedule
in attending to it.
23
There was an indication that student had significantly disliked the subjects of Science and
Mathematics and might be the reason for leniency in their study. The aversion towards the matter
is merely on the subject and has nothing to do with the Subject Teacher. Moreover, there are
students who fairly rated their teacher that might affect their performance at school.
Synthesis
The study aims to determine factors affecting the students being tardy during daily
routine of school days. Students always tardy in flag ceremony attending class and after recess
time the study notice that students feeled but when it is recess transfer of room and outdoor
activities students didn’t feel any tardy and there is also a sign that students didn’t lie the subject
they observed that when the subject is science mathematics the student’s tardiness vanished. The
problem is not in subject teacher but in subjects that teach to students this study finds out that the
other factors why students experiencing tardiness and the factor is in subjects not in their subject
teacher. But also, there are students who rated their teacher that might affect their academic
performance.
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the factors affecting the academic performance of fourth
year student nurses. The factors affecting a student’s academic performance arise from several
reasons. In line with this, this research was conducted to determine the factors that affect the
academic performance of the nursing students which may consequently help in the improvement
24
of the students and teachers alike. This study may benefit the students by allowing them to
understand better the factors that can affect their academic performance. They may be able to
improve their academic performance with the findings that are established by this study. A
quantitative-descriptive design was utilized. Self-reporting questionnaire was the main method
used for data gathering. Average weighted mean was used to determine the level of impact of the
different factors affecting the respondents’ academic performance. The first two (2) items in the
personal condition’s category are found to be of high impact. Meanwhile, the last three (3) items
in the same subset fell in the low range. On the other hand, all indicators included in the category
of study habits were considered highly impactful except for the last item which was ranked
rather lower. Student nurses have been discovered to have rated home-related factors as low in
impact. In school-related aspects, the first six (6) items are of high impact; conversely, the
7th indicator was rated low. Among the teacher-related-factors, only item 1 was established to be
of very high impact and the rest posed to be highly impactful. In the subset of personal factors,
feeling sleepy in class in class was rated to be of highest impact. The indicator ‘I study only
when there is a quiz’ was determined to have the highest impact among study habits. Meanwhile,
among the home-related aspects, ‘I live far from school’ was found to be the most impactful. The
indicator ‘the time schedule is followed’ was determined to have the greatest effect among the
school-related items. Highest of impact among the five domains were the teacher-related factors.
Based from the findings, it was concluded that several factors pose a high impact on the
academic performance of student nurses, with teacher-related factors topping the list. Among the
five (5) domains, study habits and school-related factors fall behind the teacher-related factors.
Nonetheless, both categories are still deemed to be highly impactful. Conversely, personal
conditions and home-related factors pose little effect on student nurses’ academic performance.
25
Synthesis
Based on the study, the factors affecting a student’s academic performance arise from
several reasons. Thinking skills primarily affect student’s learning faculties if they do not learn
what they need to learn. If teachers do not know how to catch the attention of a student, the more
the student cannot make himself attentive to that subject. The student gets lazy because it has a
subject that they think that it’s a subject he perceives to be not so relevant to their course;
nonetheless, they still study it. The result of this study may benefit the students by allowing them
to understand better the factors that can affect their academic performance. They may be able to
improve their academic performance with the findings that are established by this study. With
this study’s insights, the parents may be able to understand and help their children regarding their
school matters and give them support. For the teachers, this study may help them to recognize
problems encountered by the students that may pose an effect in their performance. They may
find alternative actions on how to handle their students. For the school administrators, they may
