Abstract: This study determined the connection between professional dispositions and academic performance among Early Childhood Education (ECE) pre-service teachers at Central Mindanao University during the 2024–2025 academic year. Focusing on responsibility, integrity, sensitivity, enthusiasm, communication, and reflection, the research aimed to understand how these qualities impact academic success. The study included second and third-year ECE students, assessing their dispositions using the Bradley-Isaac Assessment and their academic performance via General Weighted Averages (GWAs). The findings revealed that early childhood education pre-service teachers have a high disposition, specifically exhibiting a very high level of responsibility towards their academic tasks and showing respect and awareness. Hence, responsibility, sensitivity, enthusiasm, and integrity are rated “Very High,†and communication and reflection are rated “High.†Further, the pre-service teachers have above-average academic performance. A correlational analysis was also conducted, and both disposition and academic performance were considered. Correlation analysis showed a significant relationship between academic performance and both communication and reflection (Renaildi et al., 2025). An important relationship exists between disposition and academic performance, specifically in communication and reflection.
