Abstract

This study examines the role of conflict mediation as a transformative approach to strengthening school organizational climate and improving educational quality. Using a literature review of 30 key scholarly sources, the study finds that conflicts within schools are not merely obstacles to progress but hold constructive potential when mediated effectively. Mediation fosters equal dialogue, interest alignment, and relationship restoration, enabling a shift from destructive to collaborative communication patterns. The findings indicate that well-implemented mediation processes enhance trust, psychological safety, and mutual respect within school communities—fundamental components of a healthy organizational climate. Such a climate contributes directly to increased teacher motivation and job satisfaction, improved instructional interactions, and the development of students’ socio-emotional skills, ultimately advancing educational quality in a sustainable manner. Although conceptual, this study makes a significant contribution by integrating conflict mediation, organizational climate, and educational quality into a coherent conceptual framework. The study recommends further empirical research to evaluate the measurable effectiveness of mediation programs in various school contexts as an organizational-based strategy for quality improvement.

Abstract

Human Resource Management (HRM) plays a strategic role in improving the quality and sustainability of educational institutions, including Islamic educational institutions that possess distinctive values and goals. This study aims to analyze the role of human resource management in enhancing the quality of Islamic educational institutions, particularly through the professional, systematic, and sustainable management of educators and educational staff. This research employs a qualitative approach using a library research method. Data were collected from scholarly journal articles, academic books, and official documents related to human resource management and educational quality, and were analyzed using content analysis through data reduction, thematic presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that HRM significantly contributes to improving the quality of Islamic educational institutions through human resource planning, competency-based recruitment, continuous professional development of teachers, academic supervision, and systematic performance evaluation. Furthermore, HRM plays an important role in strengthening teacher professionalism and internalizing Islamic values such as integrity, responsibility, and work ethics within the organizational culture of educational institutions. However, the implementation of HRM still faces challenges, particularly limited resources and the lack of standardized performance evaluation systems. Therefore, strengthening strategic and quality-oriented HRM is essential to achieving sustainable quality improvement in Islamic educational institutions.

Abstract

Training and development of human resources (HR) play a strategic role in improving the performance of educational institutions amid policy changes and rapid technological advancement. The success of educational institutions is not solely determined by technological progress but is strongly influenced by the quality of educators and educational staff in managing learning processes and educational services. This study aims to examine the urgency of HR training and development as a strategy for enhancing institutional performance in education. The research employs a qualitative approach using a library research design by reviewing scholarly books, national and international journal articles, and relevant policy documents. Data were analyzed using descriptive qualitative analysis through thematic categorization, including concepts of HR training and development, their urgency in the digital era, and their implications for the performance of educational institutions. The findings indicate that training serves as a short-term, practical mechanism for improving operational competence, while HR development functions as a long-term strategic investment in preparing professional, adaptive, and competitive human resources. Systematically designed training and development programs through needs analysis, planning, implementation, and evaluation which contribute significantly to improving the quality of educational services and the effectiveness of institutional performance. Therefore, HR training and development should be positioned as an integral component of quality management in educational institutions to support sustainable performance improvement.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the effect of the democratic leadership style of the madrasah principal on students’ habituation of dhuha prayer at MTs Raudhotul Ulum Bogor. The study employed a quantitative approach with a causal-associative design. The population consisted of 30 students from grades VII and VIII, all of whom were included as the sample using a saturated sampling technique. Data were collected through a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using IBM SPSS Statistics version 26. The data analysis included normality testing, linearity testing, simple linear regression, t-test, and coefficient of determination. The results showed that the democratic leadership style of the madrasah principal had a positive and statistically significant effect on students’ habituation of dhuha prayer. The regression analysis produced a coefficient of 0.499, with and a significance value of 0.012 < 0.05. The coefficient of determination () was 0.205, indicating that democratic leadership explained 20.5% of the variation in students’ dhuha prayer habituation, while the remaining 79.5% was associated with other factors outside the model. These findings indicate that democratic leadership is one factor that may support students’ religious practices, while the development of consistent worship habits also requires broader support through role modeling, guidance, and a religious school culture.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the role of school stakeholders in managing the risk of declining students’ religious discipline at SMP Plus Bakti Nusantara 666, with a focus on the forms of risk, preventive mechanisms, and school responses to deviations in religious behavior. This study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through interviews, observation, and documentation, involving the vice principal for curriculum and a teacher as the main informants. Data were analyzed through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that the management of religious discipline operates through two interrelated mechanisms. Preventive mechanisms are implemented through structured religious habituation, including the 5S practice, congregational Dhuha and Dhuhr prayers, Qur’anic recitation, the One Day One Line program, TTQ activities, and habituation of proper conduct in daily school life. Responsive mechanisms consist of verbal warnings, monitoring by the student affairs division, guidance and counseling interventions, and parental involvement when students’ behavior does not improve. The findings demonstrate that stakeholders perform different but complementary functions in preventing, detecting, and addressing potential declines in students’ religious discipline. These mechanisms can be understood as risk management practices embedded in school activities, although they have not been formalized into a documented risk management system. The study highlights the importance of stakeholder synergy, consistent habituation, and tiered responses in maintaining religious culture and students’ discipline.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the management of educational facilities and infrastructure in supporting the learning process at Madrasah Aliyah Hidayatullah Yogyakarta, covering needs planning, decision-making, procurement mechanisms, funding sources, utilization, maintenance, evaluation, and adaptation to technological developments. The study employed a qualitative descriptive approach. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, direct observation, and documentation. Informants were selected purposively based on their knowledge and involvement in the management of the madrasah’s facilities and infrastructure. Data were analyzed thematically through the stages of data familiarization, coding, theme development and review, theme definition, and analytical reporting. The findings indicate that the management of facilities and infrastructure at MA Hidayatullah Yogyakarta is carried out through annual planning that considers existing facility conditions, learning needs, curriculum development, the number of students, urgency, and budgetary capacity. Procurement is implemented through needs proposals, market surveys, budget verification, foundation approval, and inspection of the quality and completeness of procured items. Funding is obtained from several sources, while maintenance is conducted through organized storage, routine maintenance, supervision of facility use, and damage reporting. Teachers and students are involved in the utilization and maintenance of facilities, while semester-based evaluations are used to determine priorities for improvement and inform subsequent planning. The madrasah also adapts to technological developments through the provision of computers, projectors, and internet access, as well as teacher training. These findings indicate that the management of educational facilities and infrastructure at the madrasah operates as an interconnected process involving planning, procurement, utilization, maintenance, and evaluation to support the continuity of the learning process.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the planning, implementation, and follow-up of academic supervision and its contribution to improving instructional quality. The study employed a qualitative approach using a descriptive method.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the flagship Qur’anic Reading and Writing (Baca Tulis Al-Qur’an/BTQ) program and school branding, as well as the relationship between the two in fostering public trust in MTs Ma’arif Al-Falah. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving the head of the madrasah, BTQ teachers, students, and parents. Data analysis was conducted through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing and verification. The findings indicate that BTQ was developed as one of the school’s flagship programs through grouping students according to their abilities, scheduled implementation, and the use of instructional methods adapted to students’ levels of competence. School branding was carried out by disseminating information about school activities and achievements and maintaining communication with the community. The findings also indicate that public trust was perceived as being related to the alignment between the programs offered and the community’s experiences with the educational services provided. The BTQ program serves as concrete evidence of the madrasah’s religious identity, while branding functions as a means of communicating this identity and its practices to the community. Thus, the relationship between the flagship program and branding in this case lies in the interaction among program quality, consistency of implementation, and public communication, which together support the formation of positive public perceptions. This study emphasizes that educational branding is not merely a promotional activity but should be grounded in programs and services that are genuinely implemented by the institution.
