Abstract

This study aims to describe and analyze the implementation of a democratic leadership style by a school principal in improving educational quality. A qualitative approach with a descriptive method was employed to explore leadership practices within the school context. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving the principal, teachers, and educational staff. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing to ensure systematic interpretation. The findings reveal that the principal implemented democratic leadership by actively involving teachers in decision-making processes, fostering open communication, distributing responsibilities proportionally, and providing trust and recognition for teacher performance. These practices contributed to the improvement of educational quality, reflected in enhanced instructional processes, increased teacher motivation and professionalism, and the development of a collaborative and quality-oriented school culture.

Abstract

Effective implementation of the School Health Effort Program (UKS) is essential for promoting students’ health and fostering a healthy school environment. The purpose of this research is to examine the implementation of the School/Madrasah Health Effort Program through health education, health services, and the development of a healthy school environment. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed in this study. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving key informants such as the principal, UKS teachers, and students. The collected data were analyzed through the processes of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the UKS program has been implemented through three main components. Health education is conducted through health counseling and the cultivation of clean and healthy lifestyle habits among students. Health services are provided through the utilization of the school health unit room and collaboration with local health institutions. In addition, the development of a healthy school environment is supported through classroom cleaning duties and routine school cleanliness activities. These findings imply that strengthening collaboration among school stakeholders and continuous health education can enhance the effectiveness and sustainability of school health programs.
