Abstract

Data-driven management has become an essential approach in improving school quality amid increasing demands for accountability and evidence-based decision-making in education. However, empirical studies exploring how data-based management is implemented at the primary school level, particularly from a qualitative perspective, remain limited. This study aims to examine the implementation of data-driven management in improving educational quality at SDN Wangkalwetan, Kejayan District. Employing a qualitative case study design, data were collected through semi- structured interviews with the principal and teachers, participatory observations, and document analysis related to school planning and evaluation. The findings reveal that data-driven management at SDN Wangkalwetan is implemented through a cyclical process involving data identification, collaborative data interpretation, program planning, implementation, and evaluation. School performance data are primarily utilized to guide instructional supervision, teacher development programs, and learning improvement initiatives. Nevertheless, the study also identifies challenges related to teachers’ data literacy and limited infrastructural support. This research contributes theoretically by enriching the discourse on data-driven educational leadership in primary education contexts and practically by offering insights for school leaders and policymakers in strengthening evidence-based school management practices.

Abstract

This study examines the role of school principals’ leadership in building partnerships between schools and the community to enhance educational quality at SDN Tempuran I and SDN Tempuran II. A qualitative approach with a multisite case study design was employed to understand the meaning and practices of leadership within the real context of rural elementary schools. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, participatory observations, and documentation of partnership activities. The findings reveal that school principals implement collaborative leadership that encourages the involvement of school committees, parents, and community members in decision-making processes and the development of educational programs. These partnerships contribute significantly to improvements in learning facilities, resource support, and more active stakeholder participation in educational activities. The findings underscore the importance of adaptive leadership and effective communication strategies in strengthening school–community relationships in rural settings.
