Abstract : The researcher opted to use this design because the subjects of the study are intact group of learners for the school year 2022-2023. At this stage in the research, teachers are experiencing challenges in facilitating the curriculum delivery and management and how they strategize to overcome their difficulty and insights to mitigate such for better learning process among learners. Method used was quasi experimental research where assumptions were considered given Fifty (50) participants of ALS Learners whose responses and identity were treated with utmost confidentiality. Findings of this study is to create a policy that would address retention of ALS learners in school. The policy should contain programs that would entice ALS learners to attend classes regularly, Future directions for teachers who facilitates the teaching and learning processes . A school policy about the utilization of free meal program on the learning interest of ALS learners can be issued. Besides, he can invite the teacher-researcher to discuss during LAC session the positive effect free meal program on the learning interest of ALS learners as a strategy in teaching to improved school attendance, better performance to experience adaptability as a dynamic, complicated, and reciprocal relationship between teacher and student.
