Abstract

This study aims to investigate the influence of instructional leadership, classroom management, and teachers’ pedagogical competence on the quality of learning in public elementary schools in Boja District, Kendal Regency. Using a quantitative approach with a correlational survey design, data were collected from 200 elementary school teachers selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were obtained using validated questionnaires and analyzed using multiple linear regression. The findings reveal that all three independent variables have a positive and significant effect on learning quality. Instructional leadership showed the strongest influence (β = 0.487, p < 0.001), followed by classroom management (β = 0.282, p < 0.001), and pedagogical competence (β = 0.151, p < 0.001). The regression model was statistically significant (F = 353.166, p < 0.001), with an adjusted R² of 0.841, indicating that the three variables collectively explain 84.1% of the variance in learning quality. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening school leadership, enhancing classroom management practices, and developing teachers’ pedagogical skills to improve the overall quality of education. This research contributes practical insights for policy formulation and professional development programs aimed at improving learning outcomes in elementary education.

Abstract

This study examines the implementation of student management at SD Negeri 2 Bebengan, a Transformative Model School in Boja District, Kendal Regency. The research aims to describe how key components of student management—planning, development, evaluation, and transfer—are practiced and contribute to improving educational quality. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through structured observations, semi-structured interviews, and documentation. The findings show that student planning is conducted collaboratively through data-informed strategies involving recruitment, orientation, and placement. Student development is supported through mentoring, guidance, co-curricular activities, and character education, ensuring holistic growth. Evaluation of learning is systematic, combining diagnostic, formative, and summative assessments used to adapt instructional practices and inform academic decisions. The school also employs regulated transfer and dropout management procedures to maintain continuity in student learning. These practices are aligned with national education standards and international best practices in student-centered management. The study concludes that structured and inclusive student management enhances academic outcomes and personal development. Recommendations include improving digital data systems, enhancing teacher training in socio-emotional learning, and strengthening parental involvement and post-pandemic support systems.

Abstract

This study systematically benchmarks the computational performance and decision consistency of three TOPSIS variants—classical TOPSIS, vectorized TOPSIS, and Z-TOPSIS—in scalable web-based multi-criteria decision support systems (DSS). Although TOPSIS is widely used due to its simplicity and interpretability, its scalability and computational behavior under concurrent web workloads remain insufficiently explored. To address this gap, the algorithms were evaluated using datasets containing 50–500 alternatives and 10 criteria, representing realistic decision-making scenarios. Classical TOPSIS was used as the baseline, vectorized TOPSIS applied matrix-based optimization, and Z-TOPSIS incorporated Z-numbers to capture uncertainty. Experiments were conducted on a cloud-based DSS equipped with multi-core CPUs and 16–32 GB RAM, measuring execution time, throughput, response time, and ranking consistency under workloads of 50–500 concurrent users. The results show that vectorized TOPSIS reduced execution time by approximately 50–55% (26.3 ms vs. 57.9 ms) and achieved the highest throughput of 480 requests per second. In contrast, Z-TOPSIS produced higher latency (68.4 ms) due to additional reliability computations. Ranking consistency remained high between classical and vectorized TOPSIS (Kendall’s tau ≥ 0.98), while Z-TOPSIS showed minor deviations (tau = 0.91). These findings provide practical guidance for selecting TOPSIS variants in scalable web-based MCDM applications.

Abstract

This study explores the transparency of School Operational Assistance fund management via the School Activity and Budget Plan Application at SD St Antonius 02 Semarang. Focusing on information disclosure, data access, clarity, constraints, and public trust, this qualitative case study collected data through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation from purposively selected participants: the principal, treasurer, asset officer, teachers, and school committee. Data were analyzed thematically. Findings reveal that transparency is practiced through meeting disseminations, School Activity and Budget Plan Application reporting, and internal involvement. However, detailed document access remains limited, information clarity for non-managers is suboptimal, and technical, human resource, and organizational constraints persist. Despite these limitations, stakeholder trust remains high due to consistent communication and accountable practices. Ultimately, while School Activity and Budget Plan Application significantly enhances structured financial governance, achieving true participatory transparency requires more communicative information delivery and broader stakeholder engagement.

Abstract

This study aims to describe and analyse the implementation of strategic management at Immanuel High School, Batu City, based on the Wheelen and Hunger model, which includes environmental observation, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and evaluation and control. This study aims to describe and analyse the implementation of strategic management at Immanuel High School, Batu City, based on the Wheelen and Hunger model, which includes environmental observation, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and evaluation and control. This study used a qualitative approach with a single case study design. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies of purposively selected informants. Data were then analysed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña with triangulation of sources and techniques to ensure data credibility. The study shows that service differentiation through the boarding system, character development, and multicultural management are the school's main strengths in implementing strategic management. This strategy is supported by the 3 Goods vision, which is internalised in all school programs and reinforced through a tiered evaluation mechanism. However, weaknesses remain, such as the lack of a standardised alum tracer study system and formal data-based environmental mapping. Strategic management has been integrated and effective in supporting school sustainability and the management of diverse students. This study confirms that integrating institutional values with strategic management practices is a crucial factor in building a school's competitive advantage.

Abstract

Learning quality is a fundamental aspect of educational improvement influenced by teachers’ personal, psychological, and organizational conditions. This study aimed to examine the effects of work-life balance, teacher well-being, and school culture on learning quality, with teacher motivation as a mediating variable. A quantitative approach with an ex post facto design was employed. The sample comprised 121 junior high school teachers in Kedungwuni District, Pekalongan Regency, selected through proportional simple random sampling. Data were collected using a Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using inferential statistical analysis and mediation testing. The results revealed that work-life balance, teacher well-being, and school culture simultaneously had significant effects on learning quality and teacher motivation. School culture demonstrated the strongest contribution to learning quality. Furthermore, teacher motivation significantly mediated the effects of work-life balance, teacher well-being, and school culture on learning quality. These findings highlight the importance of an integrated approach to improving learning quality by promoting teachers’ work-life balance and well-being, fostering a supportive school culture, and strengthening teachers’ professional motivation.
