The transformation of global education demands that Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) develop adaptive educational governance without eliminating their identity and values. However, most previous studies have focused more on leadership, educational management, or partial modernization of Islamic boarding schools, thus failing to produce a model of Islamic education governance that integrates Islamic boarding school values as the primary foundation of institutional development. This study aims to reconstruct Islamic education governance based on Islamic boarding school values toward superior and globally competitive Islamic boarding schools. The study used a qualitative approach with a multi-site study design at the Salafiyah-Syafi'iyah Islamic Boarding School in Sukorejo, Situbondo, and Al Qodiri Islamic Boarding School in Jember. Data were obtained through in-depth interviews, participant observation, documentation, and field notes, then analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldaña through data condensation, data presentation, and drawing and verifying conclusions.
