Abstract
The study determined the effect of bullying experience on the learning outcome of Grade 5 learners in selected schools of East I District, Division of Butuan City, for the school year 2019-2020.On the bullying experience, the male respondents disagreed that they experienced physical and sexual bullying. The male respondents agreed that they experienced verbal bullying, social bullying, and prejudicial bullying. The female respondents disagreed that they experienced physical bullying. They agreed that they experienced verbal bullying, social bullying, and prejudicial bullying. However, the female respondents disagreed that they experienced sexual bullying. Regarding the learning outcome, a majority of the respondents achieved a satisfactory outcome. It was followed by a very satisfactory learning outcome. On the test of difference, there is no significant difference in the level of perception of male and female respondents on bullying experience. On the test of effect, verbal bullying, social bullying, and prejudicial bullying had a significant effect on the learning outcome of the learners; physical bullying and sexual bullying had no significant effect on the learning outcome of the learners. Based on the findings, the following conclusions are drawn: bullying experiences in school, including verbal, social, and prejudicial bullying, pose obstacles and hindrances to learners’ development and their ability to study effectively. Physical and sexual bullying did not bother, disturb, or hinder the studies of the learners in school. The Grade 5 learners are average and above average in their learning outcomes. Bullying experiences are not a differentiating factor in the level of perception of male and female respondents. Verbal bullying, social bullying, and prejudicial bullying experiences are influencing factors on the learning outcomes of the learners. Physical and sexual bullying experiences do not influence the learning outcomes of learners. Based on the conclusions drawn, the following recommendations are made: school heads should implement a strict rule prohibiting bullying practices in school to avoid hindrances to learners’ studies. The teachers should monitor the activities of the learners in school to avoid bullying practices. The Grade 5 learners should study their lessons diligently to improve their learning outcomes. They should avoid getting involved in bullying practices in school. Researchers should undertake a study similar to the present research work to verify the validity of the results.
