Abstract

The implementation of Islamic Education curriculum policies in madrasahs is closely linked to the strategic role of the madrasah principal as an educational leader. The leadership of the madrasah principal plays a crucial role in translating curriculum policies into effective and contextual learning practices that align with Islamic values. This article aims to analyze the role of madrasah principal leadership in implementing Islamic Education curriculum policies, particularly in the aspects of planning, implementation, supervision, and evaluation. This study employs a qualitative approach using a library research method by reviewing relevant academic sources, including books, scholarly journal articles, and educational policy documents. The findings indicate that visionary, participatory, and adaptive leadership of madrasah principals has a significant influence on the successful implementation of the Islamic Education curriculum. Madrasah principals function as policy directors, drivers of human resources, and facilitators in fostering a conducive academic and religious culture. Therefore, strengthening the leadership capacity of madrasah principals is an essential prerequisite for improving curriculum implementation and enhancing the quality of Islamic education in madrasah.
