This research aims to analyze the influence of Madrasah principal leadership on organizational climate and Quality of Work Life (QWL) at Madrasah Aliyah Almaarif Singosari. Motivated by the low perceptions of educators regarding work well-being, the research adopts a quantitative approach using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SmartPLS 3.0. The literature review covers transformational leadership theory, organizational climate, and QWL as latent variables measured through standardized indicators. Primary data were collected via questionnaires distributed to teachers and educational staff, then analyzed to test direct and indirect relationships among variables. The findings reveal that principal leadership significantly affects organizational climate, but does not significantly influence QWL, either directly or through organizational climate as a mediating variable. Thus, organizational climate fails to mediate the relationship between leadership and QWL. The research concludes that improving work-life quality requires more than leadership and climate; other factors, such as compensation, social relations, and work appreciation, must be considered. This research offers implications for developing a more holistic and well-being-oriented Islamic educational management model.
