Abstract

School leadership plays an important role in strengthening teachers' professional identity and enhancing school resilience, particularly in Islamic educational institutions that integrate academic excellence with religious values. This study explores how Islamic-values-based principal leadership contributes to strengthening teachers' Islamic character and supporting school resilience at SD IT Al-Busyro, an Islamic integrated elementary school in Indonesia. A qualitative case study design was employed using semi-structured interviews with the principal, teachers, and school administrators, complemented by participant observation and document analysis. Data were analyzed through thematic analysis to identify recurring leadership practices and their influence on teachers and the school environment. The findings indicate four interconnected leadership strategies: transformational leadership grounded in prophetic values (amanah, siddiq, tabligh, and fathonah), exemplary role modeling (uswah), integrated professional and spiritual development, and participatory decision-making (musyawarah). These strategies foster teachers' commitment to professional responsibilities while strengthening Islamic values in daily educational practices. The study also finds that consistent integration of religious values into leadership practices contributes to a collaborative school culture and enhances the school's capacity to respond to organizational and external challenges. This study extends the discussion of educational leadership by demonstrating how Islamic values can be integrated into leadership practices to support teacher character development and school resilience. The findings may serve as a practical reference for leadership development in Islamic schools operating in the context of contemporary educational change.

Abstract

Improving graduate quality has become a strategic priority for Islamic educational institutions in responding to increasingly complex educational demands. However, studies examining how strategic leadership is enacted through academic supervision in pesantren based madrasahs remain limited. This study aims to analyze how strategic leadership is implemented through academic supervision to improve graduate quality at an pesantren based madrasah. A qualitative case study design was employed at Madrasah Aliyah Pesantren Alkhairaat Mainatul Ilmi. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis involving the principal, teachers, vice principals, and students. The data were analyzed using an interactive model consisting of data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing, while credibility was ensured through source and method triangulation. The findings reveal that strategic leadership is translated into a collaborative and mentoring-oriented academic supervision process aligned with the vision and values of the pesantren. This approach strengthens teachers’ professional efficacy, improves instructional quality, and contributes to better academic achievement and character development among students. The study concludes that integrating strategic leadership with adaptive academic supervision creates a sustainable mechanism for improving graduate quality. These findings contribute to the literature by demonstrating that the integration of value-based leadership and collaborative supervision within the unique culture of pesantren offers an effective model for enhancing educational quality in Islamic schools.
