Abstract

This study investigates the role of school strategic plans in enhancing educational quality, moving beyond their perception as mere administrative requirements. A systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted, analysing 15 peer-reviewed articles published between 2021 and 2026. The findings reveal that effective strategic planning contributes to quality improvement through three key mechanisms: (1) structured formulation processes involving stakeholder deliberation, (2) alignment of resources with institutional vision and mission, and (3) systematic monitoring and evaluation. However, the review also identifies persistent challenges, including limited technological integration, insufficient professional development, and a tendency toward administrative compliance rather than pedagogical transformation. This study contributes a synthesized framework that conceptualizes strategic plans as “living roadmaps” for institutional change, emphasizing the synergy between managerial leadership and active document engagement. The findings provide actionable insights for school principals and policymakers seeking to bridge the gap between long-term vision and daily operational practice.

Abstract

This study aims to explore teachers’ lived experiences of principal leadership in supporting the learning process. This study was conducted at SDN 32 Bengkulu Selatan. This study employed a qualitative phenomenological design and also literature review. Six teachers were purposively selected based on teaching experience and active school involvement. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis (coding, categorization, interpretation). The findings revealed three key leadership practices: instructional support through classroom supervision and constructive feedback; participatory decision-making that fosters teacher engagement; and motivational support that enhances teacher commitment and performance. These practices significantly contribute to improving teaching and learning quality. This study contributes to educational leadership literature by providing context-based insights into how leadership is experienced by teachers. Practically, the findings suggest that principals should adopt supportive and participatory leadership approaches, while policymakers should design leadership development programs aligned with school needs.

Abstract

This study aims to synthesize evidence on optimizing classroom management practices in implementing differentiated learning to accommodate diverse student learning styles (visual, auditory, and kinesthetic) in elementary education. Employing the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method article searches were conducted across Scopus, and Google Scholar databases for publications between 2021-2026, with 15 peer-reviewed articles meeting inclusion criteria and analyzed using thematic synthesis. Findings reveal that optimizing classroom management requires four key dimensions: flexible classroom arrangements supporting varied activities, proactive behavior management promoting student autonomy, efficient time management for simultaneous multiple activities, and ongoing formative assessment to adjust instruction—strategies that teachers report increase student engagement across diverse learning styles. The novelty of this review lies in its integrated optimization framework connecting classroom management theory with differentiated instruction principles specifically for accommodating learning style diversity, addressing a critical gap in existing literature. Practical implications guide teachers and school leaders in redesigning classroom management approaches, while informing teacher training programs and school mentoring initiatives focused on creating inclusive learning environments. This research advances educational management by providing an evidence-based framework for optimizing classroom management in differentiated settings, offering both theoretical contributions and actionable insights for practitioners accommodating diverse learners.

Abstract

This study aims to develop a theoretically grounded transformative leadership model that fosters an innovative school climate to enhance student learning independence. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, analyzing 15 peer-reviewed articles from Scopus, Web of Science, and ERIC. Thematic synthesis revealed that transformative leadership is characterized by visionary communication and intellectual stimulation as dominant dimensions. The synthesis further demonstrates that innovative school climate - defined by psychological safety, collaboration, and risk-taking - mediates the relationship between leadership practices and student learning independence. The proposed model links transformative leadership (input), innovative school climate (process), and student learning independence (outcome), extending path-goal theory by illustrating cascading effects from leaders to teachers to students. This study contributes a comprehensive framework for school principals and policymakers seeking to cultivate student autonomy through leadership-driven climate change. Limitations include reliance on existing literature and the need for future empirical validation of the proposed model.

Abstract

This study systematically analyses teacher readiness and school infrastructure for implementing AI-integrated programming learning in junior high schools. A Systematic Literature Review (SLR) was conducted following PRISMA guidelines, synthesizing 15 peer-reviewed articles published between 2021 and 2026. The findings reveal that teacher readiness is the most critical factor, with synthesized evidence indicating that fewer than one-third of teachers report adequate AI training, accompanied by concerns about role replacement and a gap between basic digital literacy and specific AI literacy. Infrastructure challenges include a significant digital divide between OECD and non-OECD countries and an urgent need for policy frameworks governing data privacy and ethical AI use in schools. The review also identifies a contradiction in the literature between technological optimism and socio-cultural resistance among educators. The study concludes that successful AI integration requires a holistic approach encompassing continuous teacher professional development, equitable infrastructure distribution, and systemic policies supporting ethical and inclusive pedagogical transformation.
