I. Introduction:
Education is considered as the tool of the country to improve its economy, but how the
government can produce quality education if the students are suffering from malnutrition and
nutrient deficiency.
Nutrient and Health problems are no longer new in the Philippines especially among
that can help reduce the malnutrition and nutrient deficiency among students.
According to Gavilan (2014) Senator Grace Poe proposed a Senate Bill 79 also known as
Sustansya Para Sa Batang Pilipino Act that promotes the School Based Feeding Program in all
public schools. She says that I am hopeful that this initiative, carried out effectively, will pave the
way for the institutionalization of national feeding program that will allow our need children to
The government launched feeding program to selected public schools around the country,
Southville Elementary School cater families relocated from a depressed area along the
Philippine National Railways of Pandacan, Sampaloc, Taguig and Sta. Mesa, Metro Manila. It
caters 2,315 pupils at present. One of the main problems of the school was the high prevalence
of severely wasted pupils. As to Nutritional Status Baseline report for this school year, the result
showed that there were 155 severely wasted pupils from Grade I to Grade VI which comprise
6.70% of the total population. Because of this, the researcher as the SBFP coordinator of the
school resorted to this action research and would like to prove that School Based Feeding
Program has an impact on the academic performance of the beneficiaries in our school.

II. Literature Review
The researcher would like to present the following literature that may help
as those with fat and tissue deficit in relation to their height. There is a hairline
distinction between wasted and severely wasted, and they both need the attention

valid, and reliable tools are lacking to measure child feeding in the context of
program development, for the purposes of (1) assessment, (2) design and
difficult to summarize into one or a few variables. The main objectives of this report

to describe steps in validating and assessing the utility of these potential indicators

that are food insecure and reside in areas with high concentrations of families from
low socioeconomic status, or towards schools that face poor attendance and
enrollment of students. There are many studies that have evaluated the impacts
of school feeding. However, the evidence on the impact of these programs is not
always conclusive. This study presents a conceptual framework of how the Food
for Education (FFE) programs work, how they impact children and families, and
how they can be linked to agricultural development. The study uses the technique
for finding studies that met the review criteria was established, which resulted in

micronutrient level of targeted children, but have modest and mixed effects on
there is strong evidence that school feeding programs positively affect school
enrollment and attendance rates, especially for girls. The review points to several

2. What is the academic performance of the severely wasted pupils after the School
This study focuses on the Impact of the School Based Feeding Program of
pupils in all learning areas. The beneficiaries are the 155 severely wasted pupils in

V. Research Methodology
The respondents of this study are the 155 severely wasted pupils of Southville
Elementary School. Their academic performance during the second quarter of the
school year will be the basis of the researcher since during this period the feeding
program is not yet implemented. While the academic performance of the pupils in the
fourth grading period after the feeding program implementation will be utilized as to
compare the previous performances of the pupils before and after the feeding
program.
The respondents of the study will be given a noticed of meeting with the school
principal and the school feeding coordinator. They will be oriented on the process of
the feeding program and they will be aware that they are the subject of the research,
any time that they want to withdraw during the duration research they are free nor to
be forced to joined again. The school head and the school feeding coordinator together
with class advisers of the pupils will explain the advantages and the disadvantages of
The researcher will utilize the Pearson product moment correlation coefficient to
compare the two performances of the pupils before and after the feeding program and

wasted. There were 18 grade one, 20 grade two, 49 grade three, 12 grade four, 16 grade five and
After the feeding program, 153 pupils improved their nutritional status. It covered 97.71%
of the total respondents. There were only 2 pupils who remain as severely wasted after the
feeding program.

If the value of r is 0 there will be no relation between the two performances of severe wasted
pupils. Since the computed value of r in this study was r= 0.91, it shows that there was a positive
effect or a correlation on the two performances of pupils before and after the school- based
Feeding program.
VII. Findings
The following finding answers the statement of the problem of the study.
1. The academic performance of severely wasted pupils before the feeding program
13
2. The academic performance of severely wasted pupils after the school-based
performance of the SBFP beneficiaries and also with their nutritional status after
VIII. Conclusion
After the 120 days of implementing of the School-Based Feeding Program, this
study proved that the SBFP has an impact on the academic performance of all
IX. Recommendation
Based on the finding of this study the following recommendation was drawn:
program.
14
Parallel study may be conducted to improve the academic performance
of the pupils.
