Abstract
Uplifting the quality of education, the Department of Education pushed for the full implementation of the Enhanced Basic Education Program. The purpose of this study is to examine the status of implementation of the Junior High School Mathematics Curriculum in Ilocos Sur division during the school year 2017-2018. A questionnaire was used to gather the data from selected secondary schools in Ilocos Sur division. The data gathered were treated using mean, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. The overall rating of the status of the implementation of the Junior High School Mathematics Curriculum was perceived high. However, it was noted that some students were found weak in some content areas. Furthermore, the result revealed that the respondents considered the teachers’ teaching methodologies and strategies significantly influenced the status of implementation of the Junior High School Mathematics Curriculum. Nevertheless, students found satisfactory in their levels of critical thinking and problem solving skills as they were not significantly influenced by the teachers’ teaching methodologies and strategies. The findings of this study must be the basis of the school administrators and teachers to improve the levels of performances of the students.
