<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the role of madrasah head management in improving the quality of Islamic Religious Education (PAI) teachers at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Muhammadiyah Buntu Barana, Enrekang Regency. The primary focus of the research is to identify the management strategies implemented by the madrasah head, measure the impact of such management on teacher performance, and discover the supporting and inhibiting factors in the management implementation. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. Research participants consist of the madrasah head, PAI teachers, and administrative staff directly involved in the management and development of teacher competencies. The research findings indicate that the madrasah head plays a strategic role in enhancing PAI teacher competencies through various professional development programs, such as internal and external training, as well as regular evaluations of teacher performance. The management strategies applied involve a transformational leadership approach, where the madrasah head not only provides direction and supervision but also serves as an inspiration for teachers to continue learning and improving the quality of education. The main supporting factor in the implementation of this management is the commitment of the madrasah head and the collaborative spirit among teachers. However, challenges such as limited facilities and financial resources still pose significant obstacles. In conclusion, effective management by the madrasah head has a significant impact on improving the quality of PAI teachers. To strengthen these outcomes, ongoing efforts are needed in teacher capacity development, enhancing external collaboration, and optimizing available resources.]]>
