<![CDATA[This study investigates the enhancement of religious moderation by implementing Islamic religious education values at Public Senior High School 1 Bambanglipuro, Bantul. Employing a descriptive qualitative research design, data were gathered using observations, semi-structured interviews, and document analysis. The research is underpinned by Thomas Lickona's theory of value education, emphasising the role of value education in shaping character and behaviour. Participants included the principal, teachers, and students selected through purposive sampling to provide comprehensive insights. The findings highlight integrating critical Islamic values such as faith, honesty, obedience, and tolerance into the school's curriculum. These values are conveyed through classroom activities, extracurricular programs, and school culture, resulting in notable improvements in student behaviour, reduced inter-religious conflicts, and enhanced attitudes of tolerance and respect. The study underscores the effectiveness of Islamic religious education in promoting religious moderation and fostering a peaceful and pluralistic society. Implications for educational policy and practice are significant, suggesting that incorporating structured moral education can play a crucial role in achieving societal harmony. Recommendations include the nationwide adoption of similar educational programs and ongoing professional development for educators to ensure sustained positive impacts. Future research should expand to include more schools and regions to validate these findings further and explore additional factors influencing the success of religious moderation initiatives in educational settings.]]>
