Abstract
This study utilized a quasi-experimental research design to examine the effects of the TVL track programs on student outcomes. Data were gathered through a survey questionnaire, commonly referred to as a tracer study or graduate survey, targeting TVL graduates from the 2021–2022 to 2023–2024 batches, along with input from teachers, school administrators, and stakeholders (Schomburg, 2016). Participants included BNHS teachers, stakeholders, and partners such as business owners, PTA members, and SGC officers who assumed various roles in student training and employment. This study examined the demographic distribution, specialization preferences, and perceived effectiveness of the Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) track among graduates and key stakeholders, including educators, industry partners, and community representatives, 103 graduates participated, predominantly from the 2023–2024 academic year. While a broad age range was represented, many respondents opted not to disclose their age, highlighting the sensitivity of such data. Gender patterns were evident in specialization choices, with males favoring Automotive and Carpentry and females gravitating toward Cookery and Agricultural Crop Production. Among Stakeholders, Barangay Officials formed the majority group, followed by Industry partners. Participation from higher-level administrators was minimal. Cookery emerged as the most selected specialization, while fields like Garments and Beauty/Nail Care saw the least interest. Employment and further study trends were most prominent among recent graduates, with over half of the respondents continuing their education. TVL-related subjects were perceived as more aligned with students’ career goals than core academic subjects. The track received favorable evaluations and a strong emphasis on the role of teachers and administrators. Stakeholder involvement was also recognized as essential, reflecting external support's impact on student success. Findings indicate a significant relationship between high school subject exposure and student outcomes, affirming the TVL program’s contribution to academic performance, career readiness, and skills development.
