Abstract

This study investigates the influence of principal leadership and teacher self-development on the professional competence of public senior high school teachers in Rembang Regency. Employing a quantitative research approach with a correlational ex post facto design and a survey method, data were collected through validated Likert-scale questionnaires from a sample of 214 teachers, selected using purposive and proportionate stratified random sampling from a total population of 460 teachers. The data were analyzed using SPSS through simple and multiple linear regression, correlation, and coefficient of determination analysis. The findings indicate that both principal leadership and teacher self-development have significant and positive effects on teacher professional competence, both individually and simultaneously. Principal leadership contributes 49.5% to competence (r = 0.704), with participative leadership as the strongest dimension and collaboration-building as the weakest. Teacher self-development contributes 48.8% (r = 0.698), with knowledge improvement as the most influential factor and teacher reaction as the least. Jointly, both variables explain 54.7% of the variance in professional competence (R = 0.740). Among the competence dimensions, monitoring student learning outcomes had the strongest influence, while commitment to students and the learning process was the weakest. These findings emphasize the importance of fostering participative leadership and promoting continuous self-development to enhance teacher performance and educational quality.

Abstract

Data-Based Planning is a national education policy designed to improve school quality through evidence-based decision-making, yet its optimal implementation remains a challenge in many schools due to limited data literacy among principals. This study examines the implementation of PBD at SD Negeri 2 Pamotan, Rembang Regency, focusing on the principal’s role, challenges faced, and strategies to optimize the process. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and document analysis involving school leaders and teachers. Findings reveal that the principal carried out all stages of the PBD cycle identifying challenges using the Education Report Card, reflecting on performance, and revising programs based on data while fostering collaborative planning, empowering teachers, and supervising program execution in line with school needs. Despite constraints in data management skills and human resources, the school effectively integrated data into decision-making, achieving notable improvements in literacy, instructional quality, and student character development. The study concludes that successful PBD implementation requires both reliable data access and the principal’s leadership capacity to guide data-informed planning and drive continuous improvement.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the communication patterns between parents and teachers in fostering students’ learning motivation at SD Muhammadiyah 01 Kandang Panjang, Pekalongan City. Employing a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the principal, class teachers, and parents. The findings reveal three main communication channels: formal (monthly class parent association meetings), semi-formal (digital media such as WhatsApp), and informal (drop-off/pick-up interactions, personal phone calls, and home visits). These channels operate synergistically, enabling the timely exchange of information, strengthening emotional bonds, and enhancing parental involvement in the learning process. Effective communication was characterized by openness, message clarity, prompt feedback, and consistency, which contributed to increased student motivation, as indicated by improved participation, discipline, confidence, and active engagement in class. Challenges, including time constraints, low digital literacy, and limited parental participation, were addressed through flexible scheduling, home visits, and parental digital literacy training. The novelty of this study lies in the integration of three communication channels adapted to the sociocultural context of a faith-based elementary school. This model offers practical insights for developing adaptive school–home collaboration to foster students’ intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.

Abstract

Improving teacher performance is a major priority in strengthening the quality of education. Two important factors influencing performance are work motivation, which provides the internal drive to achieve goals, and work discipline, which ensures consistency and accountability in carrying out professional duties. Examining these factors is particularly relevant in the socio-cultural context of East Pekalongan District, Pekalongan City. This study aims to analyze the influence of work motivation and work discipline on the performance of public junior high school teachers in East Pekalongan District. The research employed a quantitative approach with an ex post facto and associative design. A total of 115 teachers were selected through proportional random sampling. Data were collected using a validated and reliable Likert-scale questionnaire, and analyzed through descriptive statistics, classical assumption testing, and multiple linear regression. The results show that work motivation has a significant positive effect on teacher performance, contributing 61.4%. Work discipline also significantly affects performance, with a contribution of 43.2%. Simultaneously, both factors explain 61.8% of the variance in teacher performance, indicating a strong combined influence. The study concludes that strengthening teacher motivation and discipline is essential for improving professional performance and suggests that schools and policymakers develop integrated strategies to optimize these two aspects.

Abstract

This study examines the influence of work motivation, salary, and work environment on the work discipline of teachers in private junior high schools within Sub Rayon 09, Semarang City. The research employed a quantitative approach using survey methods with data collected through questionnaires distributed to teachers. Data analysis was carried out using multiple regression techniques to test the partial and simultaneous effects of the independent variables on teacher discipline. The findings revealed that work motivation had a positive and significant effect on teacher discipline, indicating that teachers with higher motivation tend to demonstrate stronger discipline in their professional responsibilities. Salary showed a positive but relatively small effect, suggesting that financial rewards still contribute to discipline, although not dominantly. Meanwhile, the work environment had a significant positive impact, emphasizing that conducive and supportive working conditions encourage discipline. Simultaneously, the three variables significantly influenced teacher discipline, with motivation emerging as the most dominant factor. These results highlight the importance of integrating intrinsic and extrinsic factors to enhance teacher discipline in educational settings.
