Abstract

The enduring presence of Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) as vital Islamic educational institutions across dynamic epochs is a testament to their adaptability. This study unravels the strategies employed by pesantren to maintain the quality of their graduates in the face of contemporary challenges. Specifically, it investigates the role of Kiai leadership styles (situational and transformative) in fostering robust graduates, alongside exploring how pesantren educational management adapts to the age of disruption driven by technological advancements. Employing a multi-site approach, the study examines two pesantrens in Central Java that have modernized their educational systems to navigate the disruptive era. Data collection involves in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. Following Milles and Hubberman's framework, data undergoes reduction, display, verification, and subsequent conclusion drawing. The findings disclose significant similarities in Kiai leadership styles between Pondok Pesantren Al-Istiqomah Batang and Pondok Pesantren Walindo Pekalongan. Both Kiais exhibit adeptness in reading situational dynamics and choosing effective leadership approaches, a crucial quality in a disruptive era. The study also identifies nuanced differences in their educational management systems. Pondok Pesantren Walindo integrates formal education with madrasah diniyah (Islamic religious education), whereas Pondok Pesantren Al-Istiqomah maintains a separate system. These variations present distinct strengths and weaknesses, impacting each pesantren's capacity to nurture high-caliber graduates. This research contributes to understanding the dynamic landscapes of pesantren education in the face of disruption, highlighting the role of adaptable leadership and educational management in ensuring robust academic outcomes.

Abstract

The quality of human resources (HR) in Islamic and public primary schools (MI/SD) is a key factor in improving the quality of basic education and is strongly influenced by the leadership role of the school principal. Principals function not only as administrators but also as instructional leaders who are capable of mobilizing teachers and educational staff to develop professionally. This study aims to analyze the role of school principal leadership in improving the quality of human resources in MI/SD, particularly in terms of pedagogical, professional, social, and personal competencies of teachers and educational staff. This research employed a qualitative approach using a case study method. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation studies, while data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that visionary, participatory, and transformational leadership of school principals plays a significant role in enhancing the quality of human resources. Principals actively encourage teacher professional development through academic supervision, continuous training, teamwork empowerment, and the creation of a supportive and collaborative school culture. In addition, the principal’s exemplary behavior in discipline, communication, and decision-making contributes positively to increasing motivation and performance among teachers and staff. The implications of this study suggest that improving the quality of basic education in MI/SD requires strengthening school principals’ leadership competencies so that they are able to manage and develop human resources in a sustainable manner and oriented toward educational quality improvement.
