<![CDATA[The issuance of Minister of Primary and Secondary Education Regulation No. 3 of 2025 concerning the New Student Admission System (SPMB) through the domicile pathway represents an improvement over the previous zoning system. However, its implementation at SMA Negeri 5 Bukittinggi has generated public dissatisfaction and perceptions of injustice. This study examines the implementation of the regulation, identifies the challenges encountered, and analyzes the policy from the perspective of fiqh siyasah tanfidziyah. This study employs empirical legal research with a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews and documentation and analyzed descriptively. The findings indicate that the implementation has generally followed applicable regulations and technical guidelines. Nevertheless, challenges remain, including inadequate dissemination of information, limited school capacity, and public misunderstandings regarding student selection mechanisms. From the perspective of fiqh siyasah tanfidziyah, the policy aligns with the principles of public welfare (maslahah), justice, and trustworthiness (amanah), particularly in preventing fraudulent practices and improving access to education. However, procedural compliance has not fully translated into substantive justice as expected by the public. This study concludes that effective policy implementation requires transparent communication, consideration of local conditions, and fair access to educational opportunities. Academically, this research contributes to the development of Islamic constitutional law by demonstrating how the principles of fiqh siyasah tanfidziyah can be applied to evaluate the implementation of public education policies.]]>
