Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis penurunan minat masyarakat terhadap TK Islam Mawaddah di Lhokseumawe, Aceh, ditandai dengan merosotnya jumlah siswa dalam lima tahun terakhir. studi ini mengidentifikasi beberapa faktor utama. Hasil menunjukkan persepsi negatif terhadap inovasi pembelajaran dan fasilitas, biaya yang dirasa tidak sebanding dengan kualitas, strategi pemasaran tradisional yang tidak efektif, serta rendahnya partisipasi orang tua.  Penurunan minat masyarakat terhadap TK Islam Mawaddah merupakan akibat dari interaksi kompleks antara faktor internal (stagnasi inovasi, fasilitas suboptimal, pemasaran tradisional) dan tekanan eksternal (persaingan ketat, perubahan ekspektasi masyarakat). Rekomendasi penelitian meliputi revitalisasi kurikulum dan metode pengajaran, peningkatan kualitas dan peremajaan fasilitas, evaluasi struktur biaya, pengembangan strategi pemasaran digital, dan peningkatan keterlibatan komunitas untuk memastikan keberlanjutan dan relevansi TK Islam Mawaddah di masa depan.

Abstract

This study examined community perceptions of careers in early childhood education (ECE) within preschool settings in Zanzibar, guided by Holland’s Career Choice Theory, which suggests that career decisions are influenced by individual interests, personality and environmental factors. A qualitative research approach was employed, involving 22 pre-service teachers in Zanzibar. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analysed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed several key perceptions, including negative stereotypes about the profession, such as societal misconceptions regarding low pay, low status, lack of proper guidance regarding career choices in ECE. The study also identified several strategies and initiatives to encourage young people to pursue careers in ECE, including raising awareness about the career, improving infrastructure to reduce overcrowded classrooms and increasing support staff in ECE schools to enhance teachers’ teaching efficiency. The study underscores the need for targeted interventions to improve the public perception and appeal of ECE as a viable and prestigious career option. It also highlights the importance of addressing challenges in the ECE teaching environment in Zanzibar, such as overcrowded classrooms, insufficient resources, and inadequate support for teachers.
