Abstract

This study used a qualitative approach to identify key elements in effective school management, referred to as the 'DNA of Educational Excellence,' in facing the demands and dynamics of the 21st century. The study was conducted in May 2025 at SMK Grafika Desa Putera, involving ten teachers who were purposively selected based on their relevance and involvement in the school management process. Data were collected through document analysis, in-depth interviews and observation. The main focus of the study included six important indicators in school administration: transformational leadership of the principal, human resource management, curriculum and learning management, facilities and infrastructure management, financial management, and school and community relations (PR) management. The collected data were analysed through the stages of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. It is hoped that the results of this study can provide a comprehensive picture of vocational school management practices that are adaptive to the demands of the times, as well as support initiatives aimed at developing educational institutions that are not only relevant, but also agents of revolutionary change for future generations.
