The study used a descriptive correlational research method with 191 grade 2 pupils in the Philippines.

While learners had high levels of positive attitudes towards mathematics, most did not meet expectations for academic achievement. The study found relationships between attitudes and achievement, and recommends remedial teaching strategies, developing 21st century skills, understanding learner differences, and building positive teacher-student relationships to improve mathematics learning.
