An Analysis of the Licensure Examination for Teachers Performance ofBEED Graduates at Guimaras State University (2019-2023)

Abstract

This study examines the performance of Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEED) graduates from Guimaras State University (GSU) in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) over a five-year period, from 2019 to 2023. The primary objective was to analyze trends in the passing and failure rates as well as average ratings across various subject areas. Data were gathered from secondary records provided by the Professional Regulation Commission and the university’s academic records. The study utilized descriptive quantitative research methods to identify patterns in exam performance. The results revealed significant improvements in the pass rates, with a decrease in failure rates from 59.3% in 2019 to 25% in 2023. While the overall passing rate was 63.5%, the passing rate for individual years showed fluctuating performance, reflecting the effectiveness of curriculum changes and instructional support mechanisms. Subject 2 consistently outperformed Subject 1 in average ratings, with a slight decline in 2023. The findings suggest that while GSU’s BEED program has made considerable progress, further efforts are needed to enhance performance in Subject 1. The study emphasizes the importance of targeted interventions such as specialized review programs, faculty development, and curriculum adjustments to sustain and improve licensure exam results. The research contributes to understanding how teacher education institutions can improve their licensure outcomes, ultimately preparing future educators for success.
