This study investigated the relationship between personality traits and academic performance among Grade 6 pupils at Southville 8 Elementary School in Rodriguez, Rizal. The research employed the well-established Big Five personality traits: Openness to Experience, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness, and Neuroticism, to explore their influence on students' General Weighted Average (GWA). Using a descriptive qualitative and correlational research design, the researchers collected data from a randomly selected sample of 50 Grade 6 pupils through survey questionnaires. The study's findings revealed a significant correlation between Agreeableness and academic achievement, suggesting that students who exhibit empathy, helpfulness, and cooperation tend to perform better You sent academically. This suggests that fostering a classroom environment that encourages collaboration, kindness, and positive social interaction can contribute to better academic outcomes. However, a direct correlation between overall academic performance and personality traits was not found, implying a more complex interplay between these factors. The study suggests that personality traits likely influence academic achievement indirectly through factors like motivation, learning styles, and personal experiences. The researchers concluded that educators should prioritize creating Inclusive and supportive learning environments that cater to the diverse personalities of students. This includes promoting self-awareness, fostering effective learning strategies, and providing individualized support to help students overcome challenges and reach their full potential. Further research is needed to explore the complex interplay between personality traits and academic performance in greater depth, considering factors like cultural influences and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies to support students with diverse personality profile
