Chapter I
INTRODUCTION
A school is not just any place where students learn and discover new knowledge, it is where
right manners and good discipline is conducted. By good discipline, students are molded into equal
individuals that build respect towards others. Hence, educational institutions provide policies as
existing guidelines for students to follow. One would be the implementation of wearing a student
Identification or the ‘No ID, No Entry’ which this study is all about.
Blog of Specialist ID, Inc. US (2019) posted that schools throughout the United States are
increasingly relying upon ID card systems to keep their students, faculty members, and visitors as
safe as possible every day. It is best practice that schools execute in order to ensure one of their
main priority---student and staffs’ safety. It also helps visitors stand out and be easily identified
and monitored.
Blog of One Source Security and Automation, Inc. (2016) posted that the National Center
of Education Statistics stated that schools who require their students wear ID badges are less than
10 percent. Having a student ID with you helps in cases of emergency as the individuals’
However, as of past years here in Magallanes National High School (MNHS), wearing a
Student ID before entering campus premises is of weak implementation as it is not much likely
followed by the students. Slow production is a factor that lays evident on as to why such policy is
not quite effective. Students that have already received their IDs are wearing them but they are not
as many. That is why on some school events or be it just a normal day on campus, there are cases

where outsiders can enter. Though the school security guard is doing a great job but with the
massive population of MNHS students, it would be hard to determine who belongs and who does
not, especially without student IDs. But even though this state has been going on for years, this
policy continues to exist even if it’s not that strictly implemented. This policy adds up different
views from students and to further understand it is the aim of this study.

This research has encountered different problems like having no printer to print papers or
finding a printing service that has a cheap offer. Also, mostly of the participants that we would

Related Studies
Students don’t like being told what to do, but ID’s aren’t meant to make students’ lives
harder. They’re a simple precaution that helps faculty and staff keep track of students who
constantly shuttle between two campus and career centers. Faculty can’t be expected to put a name
to every one of the 1,800 faces in the school. With the safety in schools a continuous problem, it
is important that teachers and other staff members know who is walking the halls of the school.
With ID’s on, students are telling the staff who the students are and that they belong. But, one can
only go so far. Although a number of students switch ID’s, cover up their face with stickers, or
simply don’t wear an ID, it’s easy to tell when someone doesn’t belong, said Principal Jeffrey
Kajs. Wearing an ID helps students practice good safety habits that all students should become
familiar with (Lewisville High School, Farmers' Harvest student newspaper, 2014).
The U.S Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics (2018), schools
use a variety of practices and procedures to promote the safety of students, faculty, and staff. Use
of various safety and security procedures differed by school level during the 2015–16 school year.
For example, greater percentages of public primary schools and public middle schools than of

public high schools-controlled access to school buildings and required faculty and staff to wear
Blog of One Source Security and Automation, Inc. (2016) posted that when an ID badge is
present, everyone knows at a glance who belongs and who does not. The ID badge should be easily
seen and presented to any school staff member or person of authority seeking identification. This
can be especially important for emergency personnel who may not be familiar with the students
but will know who is who at a glance in an emergency situation. Not only in emergency situations
is it important for students to wear ID badges, but on a day to day basis teachers and staff can
identify students. The use of a student ID badge authorizes a student to be on campus, increasing
site security while swiftly detecting unauthorized visitors. Each school should ensure safety and
security for all staff and students as a top priority each and every day. Wearing identification has
become a security “best practice” for schools. Access control and video surveillance, along with
security glass laminates for schools can provide a complete security package to protect students,

The researchers of this study have wisely used a strategy of choosing participants without
being biased or having to select certain participants. The population belonging on the Grade 11
level are a total of 294 students. We have carefully used a simple random sampling of probability
sampling where we have listed all the strands and listed all the students in each section and picking

In conducting our research, we have prepared open ended questions and approached our
participants to inquire them about their understandings as an important information for our study.
The answers gathered from the participants is listed where we have recorded each answer for
In collecting data, we have written a letter as a permission for conducting our research of
which we have addressed to the principal and head teachers. After the permission granted,
questionnaires are then created basing on the general problem of the study. We have then used
simple random sampling which is a probability sampling technique of choosing students without
being biased where we have come to acquire 9 participants. An informed consent is then carefully
written as a letter made for the participants in agreeing to participate in our research. With this,
before having to start our interview, a briefing is held towards each of them to let them know about
our study. As an easy documentation, we have then recorded their responses where we have coded
The gathered answers from participants are then translated in an understandable way from
recordings done from every participant. All of it are then placed on a matrix where each question

Summary of Findings
The participants interviewed are a majority of girls with the ages of 16, 17 and 20. All the
participants have said that the importance of having a student ID is for students to be recognized.
They’ve all said how having an ID alongside with a person can help in terms of identification
especially in emergency cases. Also stating that having an ID have also saved them money on
transportation fares and money withdrawals. As for their views about the strict Implementation of
the student ID, majority have agreed due to the fact that it has been helpful for them and that it can
be a good discipline for the students, as of the rest that disagreed, they have said how it is a
hindrance, something that can easily be forgotten and that MNHS won’t be needing its student IDs
Conclusion
On the data gathered, the student ID of Magallanes National High School should thereby
be strictly implemented because it has given good and positive effects to the majority of students
which are girls and their answers have proven how a simple student ID could be helpful. A student
ID has an important role not just for the students but as well as for the school’s security and
neatness. This research has led us to know that the students are in favor of making it strongly into
policy other than just by simply implementing it. Its production is of slow process but given the
results of this study, with respect for the school’s budget, this should at least serve as a helpful
Recommendation
For Students. Fellow students of those that have already received their ID should wear them to at
least put an encouraging notice to the school on putting ID into strict implementation. The students
should also be raising awareness on the importance of the student identification and ponder on the
For Teachers. Encourage the students (those that have received their IDs) on wearing their
respective IDs every day. They should be a model for the young students and develop an image as
a good sight for the students to be aspired of, this way, they’ll be encouraged to follow the teachers.
For School Administration. The school should consider the results that this study has presented
of which majorities of the students are in favor of having a strict implementation of student ID
therefore, there should be a consideration of creating a policy, specifically the ‘No ID, No Entry’
policy.
For Future Researchers. To the students of the future, an enhancement of this study would be of
good suggestion. Also, having to suggest other related topics of our study could be of helpful
advice.
