Department of Education Order No. 27, series of 2013 (Implementing Guidelines for the K to 12
Basic Education Curriculum) Inclusive education is the core principle of the K to 12 Basic Education
Program. This promotes the right of every Filipino to quality, equitable, culture- based and
complete basic education. Through inclusive education, all Filipinos will realize their full potential
and contribute meaningfully.

Section 1: The K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum (BEC) is the curriculum prescribed by the
Department of Education (DEPED) for all public and private elementary and secondary schools in
the Philippines.

Section 2 : The BEC is designed to provide all Filipino children with a holistic and well-rounded
education that will prepare them for success in college, work, and life.
Section 3: The BEC is comprised of four core academic subjects (English, Mathematics, Science, and
Social Studies) and a number of elective subjects.

Section 4: The BEC is implemented through a spiral approach, which means that the same
concepts and skills are taught at different levels of complexity.

Section 5: The BEC is assessed through a variety of methods, including summative assessments
and formative assessments.

Division Quarterly Assessment

The Division Quarterly Assessment (DQA) is a summative assessment that is administered to all
Grade 10 learners in the Philippines at the end of each quarter. The DQA is used to measure
learners’ academic performance in the core academic subjects.

The DQA is a valid and reliable assessment that is aligned with the BEC. The DQA results are used
to provide feedback to learners, teachers, and school administrators. The DQA results are also
used to inform the development of educational programs and policies.

Grade 10 Learners’ Academic Performance in Science

Academic performance is the level of success that a learner achieves in a particular subject.
Academic performance is influenced by a variety of factors, including the learner’s ability,
motivation, and access to quality education.

The DQA results can be used to assess Grade 10 learners’ academic performance in Science. The
DQA results can be used to identify learners who are struggling in Science and who need
additional support. The DQA results can also be used to track learners’ progress in Science over
time.

Study on the Relationship between the Division Quarterly Assessment and Grade 10 Learners’
Academic Performance in Science

A study on the relationship between the DQA and Grade 10 learners’ academic performance in
Science would be valuable because it would provide information about the effectiveness of the
DQA as an assessment tool. The study would also provide information about the factors that
influence Grade 10 learners’ academic performance in Science.
The results of the study could be used to improve the DQA and to develop more effective teaching
and learning strategies for Science. The results of the study could also be used to identify learners
who are at risk of failing Science and who need additional support.

In conclusion, there are a number of legal bases for the study: “Division Quarterly Assessment in
Relation to Grade 10 Learners’ Academic Performance in Science of Baclayon National High
School.” The study is aligned with the Philippine Constitution, the Republic Act 10533 (Enhanced
Basic Education Act of 2013), and the Department of Education Order No. 27, series of 2013
(Implementing Guidelines for the K to 12 Basic Education Curriculum). The study would be
valuable because it would provide information about the effectiveness of the DQA as an
assessment tool and about the factors that influence Grade 10 learners’ academic performance in
Science.
