Implementation of Strategic Management in Improving the Quality of Education at Abu Darrin Private Islamic High School, Bojonegoro Regency

Abstract

This study aims to provide an overview of the implementation of strategic management in improving the quality of education through the achievement of national education standards. The study uses a qualitative approach with a case study method to collect data through interviews, observations, and in-depth analysis. The results of the study show that the implementation of strategic management through national education standards, which includes management in the implementation of content standards, processes, graduate competency standards, management, assessment, facilities and infrastructure, funding standards, and educator and education staff standards, is in accordance with the characteristics of the madrasa and is carried out through several aspects. Each standard contributes and complements one another. The role of transformational leadership is also significant in the reforms carried out by the madrasa. Supporting factors include good cooperation among the human resources within the madrasa, complete facilities, and a well-structured institutional management process. However, the obstacles faced by the madrasa include the lack of an adequate UKS (School Health Unit) room and library that meet the standards, as well as the absence of a dedicated staff to handle library and UKS issues.
