Tardiness has been a serious matter especially to the students. This study
about tardiness focused on finding out what causes the students to come late
which affects their attentiveness to academic performances and to know how to
avoid this kind of problem. One of the most important things a student can do
to achieve academic success is also one of the most basic: going to school every
day and being on time (Kleber, 2013). Chronic tardiness is when students are
consistently late to class and can have dramatic results on a student’s future
education and career (Bennion, 2018). Lateness can be defined as the “situation
where an individual arrives after the proper, scheduled or usual time (Nakpodia

Most teachers do not like students who are tardy. Simply because they
would most likely disrupt their class causing the teacher to reiterate his/her
lecture for the sake of the tardy student, thus wasting time for the oncoming
lectures. This is simplified when Shakira (2015) said “In a time-lax culture such
as in the Philippines, this leaves the punctual person annoyed by the tardiness
of others.”

This was supported by Bilocura (2012) when he said that it is not solely
the students’ fault why they keep on being late in coming to class. Another factor
that could affect the punctuality of a student is the response of the teachers to
tardy students.
The idea was further expounded by Bilocura (2012) when he added that
another reason why students come late is when the teacher gives the student
the impression that “they won’t be missing anything if they are late” since in
