<![CDATA[In the Merdeka Curriculum era, elementary education positions teachers as facilitators and instructional leaders who encourage active student participation (student agency). This study aimed to describe the learning strategies implemented by a Guru Penggerak at SDN Tanjungsari in fostering student leadership. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews, observations, and documentation involving the *Guru Penggerak*, the principal, and fifth-grade students. The findings revealed that the teacher implemented student-centered learning by emphasizing three key aspects: voice, choice, and ownership. Students were given opportunities to express their opinions, choose their learning approaches, and take responsibility for their learning outcomes. These strategies contributed to increased independence, self-confidence, and active engagement among students in the classroom. In conclusion, the *Guru Penggerak* plays a significant role in fostering student leadership through participatory and reflective learning practices.]]>
