Abstract

This research aims to investigate and describe the strategic dimensions of educational administration at Santa Lusia Kindergarten Indonesia, specifically focusing on financial management as a driver for quality improvement. The study focuses on four key aspects: (1) budget planning oriented toward educational quality; (2) the organization of human resources; (3) the implementation of financial management; and (4) the financial supervision system. Employing a qualitative descriptive methodology, the research provides an in-depth analysis of administrative practices within the institution. The findings reveal that: First, budget planning is systematically executed through the annual preparation of the school revenue and expenditure plan (RAPBS), involving active stakeholder participation and collective decision-making in meetings chaired by the foundation's head. Second, the mechanism for financial management is inherently linked to its funding sources and the personnel assigned to manage them (the specific organization of human resources remains an ongoing phase of this research). Third, budget implementation is strategically directed toward supporting core school programs, infrastructure development, and the procurement of essential goods and services. Finally, financial supervision is conducted through a collaborative oversight framework involving the Santa Lusia Virgini Foundation and the local Department of Education. Accountability is maintained through a tripartite responsibility structure between the School Committee, the Foundation, and the Education Office, ensuring that financial resources are utilized to sustain and enhance the quality of education.

Abstract

The research aims to accomplish three main things: first, to create a model for academic supervision that uses Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and website media to improve the professional competence of Santa Lusia Kindergarten teachers in Keuskupan Agung Medan. Second, to determine if the model can be implemented and evaluated in this educational setting. Third, to implement and evaluate the model. Making sure the model is feasible and usable in the real world is the main goal of the study. The result show that ICT-based academic supervision model that was developed proved effective in improving the professional competence of teachers at TK Santa Lusia. The N-Gain test results in cycle II, which reached 0.723 (72.34%), demonstrated the model's effectiveness, although it slightly decreased from cycle I (73.30%). With N-Gain values ranging from 46.15% to 88.89%, the model consistently provided significant improvements in teacher competence. The results indicate that the model effectively enhances teacher professional competence at Santa Lusia Kindergarten in Keuskupan Agung Medan.
