Abstract

Spiritual leadership is increasingly recognized as essential in early childhood education (ECE) for fostering holistic and meaningful learning environments. However, existing leadership models often lack alignment with the cultural and spiritual values of specific contexts, such as Indonesia. This study addresses the gap by developing a spiritual leadership model grounded in Indonesian local wisdom. A qualitative, single-case study was conducted at KB Al-Farizi, Bandung. Participants included one principal and eight teachers selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis. Thematic analysis was conducted using NVivo 12 Plus software. The study developed a “Pancasila-based Spiritual Leadership Model for PAUD,” incorporating core Indonesian values such as cooperation, consensus, and local wisdom. Implementation of this model demonstrated positive impacts on teacher performance, including increased motivation (average job satisfaction score of 4.2 out of 5.0), enhanced innovation in teaching practices, and improved interpersonal relationships within the school community. This research contributes to the theoretical development of context-specific spiritual leadership in ECE by embedding Indonesian cultural principles. Practically, it offers a replicable framework for ECE institutions seeking to enhance teacher performance and school culture through culturally rooted leadership practices.

Abstract

This study identifies the successful green leadership practices of a primary school principal, serving as a reference for other educational leaders in responding to the global environmental crisis. The Biographical Narrative Interpretive Method (BNIM) was employed to explore the principal's leadership journey through narrative inquiry, with data collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis. Findings were analysed using BNIM procedures, presented thematically, and visualised using NVivo software. The study reveals patterns of green school leadership that contribute to the development of leadership Theory through three specific technical contributions. Methodologically, this research introduces BNIM as a novel approach to exploring environmental leadership development in educational sectors. Theoretically, it establishes an operational framework for green school leadership, comprising five personal values and six measurable leadership practices. It provides a proven implementation model for effectively addressing school environmental challenges. Research contributions are demonstrated through concrete solutions to school environmental problems, including the elimination of waste bins through the universal adoption of reusable containers by students and the transformation of the school into a pilot site for cultivating 60 horticultural trees, promoting sustainable ecological learning. Additionally, six measurable leadership strategies were implemented, encompassing the establishment of vision, sharing environmental knowledge, inspirational communication, stakeholder engagement, proactive behavior, and long-term commitment. These strategies effectively address waste management challenges, promote environmental awareness within the school community, and significantly contribute to the development of green leadership practices in educational institutions
