Abstract

This study found that principals who adopt transformational leadership can improve morale, staff satisfaction, and student engagement in the educational process. This leadership also plays a role in building a positive, inclusive, and collaborative school culture, which supports the achievement of educational goals effectively. This study confirms that attention to individual well-being, appropriate support, and open and responsive communication between principals and teachers are essential to improving teacher performance and job satisfaction. The results show that a positive principal leadership style can improve teacher productivity and job satisfaction, which in turn has an impact on improving the quality of learning and student learning outcomes. However, the implementation of transformational leadership faces challenges such as lack of understanding of the concept and uncertainty about the changes needed. Therefore, a clear understanding and adequate resources are needed to support teacher professional development and the implementation of consistent and effective leadership strategies. In conclusion, transformational leadership by principals is essential to creating a harmonious and empowering educational environment, which can bring positive changes in the world of education.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze various forms of teacher career development and their impact on enhancing professionalism in primary schools. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach through library research, the study examines relevant national and international scientific literature and empirical data from elementary schools. The findings reveal that career development programs for teachers include curriculum workshops, digital learning training, professional certification, promotions, mentoring, classroom action research, and participation in academic forums. Teachers actively engaged in these activities show significant improvement in their lesson planning, technology integration, classroom management, and student assessment practices. The study also finds a strong correlation between the intensity of career development and the level of teacher professionalism. Organizational support, school leadership, and affirmative educational policies play a vital role in strengthening this relationship. The study recommends the implementation of continuous, needs-based career development systems to foster adaptive, reflective, and innovative teaching professionals in the era of educational transformation.

Abstract

This descriptive qualitative multi-site study evaluates the operational alignment of formal job descriptions for school administrative staff (TAS) in personnel affairs across senior high schools (SLTA) on Sipora Island, a remote area in Mentawai Islands. Data were gathered from four schools (SMA Swasta Penabur Berkat, SMAN 2 Sipora, SMKN 1 Kepulauan Mentawai, and SMAN 1 Sipora) through interviews, observations, and document audits involving eight key informants. Framed within the POAC (Planning, Organizing, Actuating, Controlling) management framework, the study reveals a persistent implementation gap. Daily workflows show only a 70% to 80% adherence rate to formal job descriptions, heavily dominated by reactive, situational vertical mandates (management by crisis). Five critical structural barriers sustain this gap: severe misalignment in educational backgrounds (mismatch), lack of localized continuous training, acute infrastructural deprivations (frequent power outages and unstable satellite internet connection), absence of written Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), and operational overload due to extreme staff multi-tasking. This study recommends human resource recalibration, the development of contextual SOPs, and inclusive digital administration training for schools in isolated archipelagic networks.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of job descriptions for School Administrative Staff in personnel management at senior secondary schools on Sipora Island, Mentawai Islands, evaluate task alignment, identify implementation gap triggers, and examine adaptive strategies. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving eight informants across four schools. Data were gathered via in-depth interviews, observations, and document reviews. Data validity was tested through triangulation, and analysis followed Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. Results show that alignment between formal job descriptions and daily practice reached 70–80%. The gap is driven by five factors: human resource competency, geographical-infrastructural constraints, institutional dynamics, absence of written SOPs, and workload imbalances. Schools and staff responded through task reallocation and self-directed learning. This study provides empirical insights into implementation gaps in remote archipelagic (3T) regions, demonstrating how geographical isolation exacerbates structural weaknesses in formal job descriptions.

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the relationships of innovative school leadership practices and teacher professional development with teacher-reported learning quality in public senior high schools in Padang City, Indonesia. A quantitative cross-sectional survey design was employed involving civil-servant (Aparatur Sipil Negara/ASN) teachers from 17 public senior high schools, with 273 respondents selected from a population of 855 teachers through proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected using validated five-point Likert-scale questionnaires, summarized using the Respondent Achievement Level (TCR), and analyzed through multiple linear regression. The results showed that learning quality (TCR = 90.90%), innovative school leadership practices (TCR = 91.59%), and teacher professional development (TCR = 89.28%) were all categorized as Very Good. Innovative school leadership practices (β = .343, t = 6.381, p < .001) and teacher professional development (β = .351, t = 6.537, p < .001) were significant positive predictors of teacher-reported learning quality. Collectively, both predictors explained 33.4% of the variance in learning quality (R² = .334, F = 67.562, p < .001), leaving 66.6% attributable to factors outside the model. These findings suggest that strengthening innovative leadership, particularly teacher involvement in decision-making, and sustained professional development, including classroom action research, may support perceived learning quality. However, because the study relied on cross-sectional, same-source self-reports, the findings should be interpreted as predictive rather than causal. Future research should employ longitudinal, multilevel, and multi-source designs to identify additional school- and teacher-level determinants.
