ABSTRACT
Every family experiences a different problem at home, and it certainly brings a huge
impact to the children and their performances in school. The purpose of the study was
to determine the impact of family issues on the academic achievement of Grade 12
students in STI Tagum College. This study uses the Correlational research design to
identify the impact of family issues in academic performance and interpersonal
relationships of the pupils under study. The target respondents of the study were the
Grade 12 Senior High School students in STI Tagum College. Family influences the
academic, social, and emotional development of children or students. Support from a
family can enhance and improve their educational experiences and outcomes. One of
the researchers' recommendations was that the school and the Ministry of Education
should consider training peer counselors among the students so that they can assist
their peers. Another suggestion was that parents/guardians who are experiencing family
conflicts should seek counseling as soon as possible to minimize harmful
consequences on their children.

INTRODUCTION
There are pieces of evidence found that family and parents possess an impact
on children's intellectual, social, and emotional development, which may enhance and
improve their educational experiences and outcomes. Family problems, like major
changes in the family dynamic, financial instability, and sibling bullying, can have a
significant impact on children. These problems can negatively affect the students in

The effect of parental involvement has been the focus of studies for some time,
and even young adults (Melhuish et al., 2008; Sylva et al., 1999). The family and the
educational system are the two most important institutions responsible for socializing
and educating children, as children spend most of their developmental years immersed
within these two institutions. Concerns about the impact of family structure on a child's
academic achievement have been a source of dynamism over the years. The family

For a family that is having struggles and always arguing in day-to-day life, the
possibility of laziness and disinterest in the learning of a child will expand. The
atmosphere remains tense. The parents are fighting or disconnected, while the children,
specifically the students, are sandwiched between the situations. Difficulty concentrating
impedes student progress, and severe family challenges destroy the student's ability to
focus. The problem may also destroy the student's ability to sleep and participate in
previous activities, and by that, children or students may fail on their studies.
The goal of this study is to explore and understand why and how the events

Family Matters
Home interactions of family members at home are frequent. The head of the
home and outside of it. The tune, words, and approach in communication, reflect the
attitude of the head of the family and the reply of family members to the head of the
family has the same ingredients, which also constitutes their attitude towards the head
of the family and his/her communication. Family decisions are major factors that involve
in-depth interactions of the family members. It is the stage from where the importance of
family member say/opinion can be judged. Families that involve children in their
According to Walker (1999), studies carried out have shown that when one form
of violence was found in the family, other forms were more likely to also occur and that
violence in the family has a direct relationship to community violence and other forms of
aggression and gender-based violence. Law enforcement in many countries will not

stop their battering behavior. Research has found a strong relationship between
violence in the home and violence in the community. Golden (2000) reports that it has
been found that prior history of abuse can increase the likelihood of abusive behavior.
Parental conflict and aggression or a conflict atmosphere in the home are related to
Berk (1999) asserts that problematic school performance is among the more
common problems associated with child abuse and neglect. Such children often
experience difficulties with social relationships, problem-solving, and the ability to cope
with new or stressful situations. According to studies carried out, some abused or

capital theory and social capital theory, and so on. The human capital theory claims that
is the primary principle for families to make an educated investment decision, and the
poor families usually are not able to invest sufficiently in their children’s education,
which affects their children’s academic achievement (Becker 1964). Gross (1993)

lasts throughout their school years, according to Bonci (2008). Parents are their
children's first instructors and role models, and hence have a significant effect on their
learning. Nonetheless, studies reveal that many parents are unaware of the role they
play in their children's education and have a limited grasp of their involvement in their
Taiwo (1993) submits that parents' educational background influences the academic
achievement of students. Musgrave (2000) states that a child that comes from an
educated home would like to follow the steps of his or her family and by this, work
actively in his or her studies. Akanle (2007) found that parental income not to be

Family Size
According to Ella (2015), family size refers to the total number of children in a
child’s family in addition to the child himself. Large numbered families whether rich or
poor are difficult to maintain, they are characterized with a high number of children,
In such an environment, family unit has been reduced to what the industrial
society has called, “nuclear family”. The nuclear family is built in a new environment with
a couple and their children, with the parents of neither the husband nor the wife.
According to Kandiyoti, mother, father and unmarried children comprise the nuclear
family. Nuclear family as a term has been used to define the family unit, comprised of
the married couple and dependent children as set forth by Adak. Eristwhistle (1986)
stated that children from large families have less frequent interactions with adults and
Bysenk and Locksoh (2011), affirmed that, most extroverted children come from smaller

that relevant research ethics were properly considered during the study's conduct. Any

CONCLUSION
The following conclusions are formed based on the findings of this study
The study proves that there is a significant relationship between Family Background and
Academic Achievement.
RECOMMENDATION
32
Education has many benefits that can have a positive impact on life. Educated or
talented people can better look for doors that are open for themselves and the whole
country. Education has great power to change the whole world. Education is a powerful
weapon against ignorance, illness, and poverty, as a means of enlightening,
responsible, hard-working citizens and creating a better future.
Sequel to the findings and discussions from the study; the researchers recommended
the follows:
1) The socioeconomic situation of parents has virtually little bearing on their children's
academic achievement. As a result, the researchers simply recommend that parents
raise and enhance their socioeconomic level to meet their children's educational needs.
According to the findings, there is a negligible significant impact on students.
3) Students should put much effort and pay close attention to their academic success
since the amount of work they put forth in their studies has an impact on their academic
achievement. Time management, interest, and educational quality should all be
enhanced.
4) Parents can try to limit the number of their families to maintain a manageable level of
family life. This will allow them to make effective use of the riches they have to care for
their children's educational needs, potentially leading to their children's great academic
accomplishment.
33
5) Teachers and parents should collaborate to pay close attention to and motivate
youngsters. Teachers listening to parents and parents taking time to understand where
teachers are coming from can help parents and teachers form a partnership. Because
the end aim is the same: assisting children in becoming responsible, safe, and
successful individuals.
