Introduction

Teacher home visit programs are utilized by many school system as a way to create
bonds with parents to increase in-school parent participation and, most likely, increases
student achievement. The biggest benefit of home visits was a better understanding of the
child’s learning in the classroom. The teacher’s home visit program enables students to
realize that they have a network of support. A home visit is an approach to connect the gap
between school and home for learners, families and teachers. A growing volume of research
points to the significance of parents assisting their children’s learning at home. A home visit
is another way to expand the partnership among teachers and parents and increase the
students’ chances for achievement.

Also, home visitation programs are designed and implemented to support families in
providing an environment that promotes the healthy growth and development. Programs
target their services to families and caregivers in order to improve child development,
enhance pupils academic achievement and promote positive parent-child interactions.
Although programs differ in their approach, populations served and intended outcomes, high-
quality home visiting programs can provide child development and family support services
that reduce risk and increase protective factors. (Kelly et.al ,2022)
In line with this, (Kelly et.al ,2022) stated that home visiting programs addressing Pupils
Academic Achievement are most effective when delivered at the community level, through a
comprehensive early childhood system that includes the supports and services the ensure a
continuum of care for all family members across the early years. School Academic
Achievement includes the General Average of the individual child grades from First grading
until Second grading period, the school’s home visitation program provides supports
children, and the ability of the family and community involvement to support early child
development, health and wellbeing.
In addition to home visiting services, appropriate referrals to community services,
including to preschool programs, offer a low-cost universal approach that increases the
chances of early school success. This comprehensive approach to home visiting as a part of
broad early childhood system has been identified as an effective strategy to help close the gap
in pupils’ academic achievement and child well-being associated with poverty and early
childhood adversity. In this study, the researchers focused on the effects of home visitation on
the academic achievement of Grade 3 pupils in Mahalang Elementary School.

variable affects the other and what changes are eventually observe. In this research methods
relationship among two or more variables are studied without attempting to influence them.
Instead, the possibility of relationships between/ among the identified variables are only
investigated but manipulated(Ramos, Sabit, and Bajao,2017).
