Implementation of School-Based Management in Educational Units

Implementasi Manajemen Berbasis Sekolah di Satuan Pendidikan

Abstract

School-based management is a school management system that provides calm and strength to school institutions to manage life according to the potential, demands and needs of the school concerned. In school-based management, the school is an institution that has full authority and responsibility to independently determine educational programs (curriculum) and make it happen against various school policies in accordance with the “content, mission and educational goals to be achieved by the school”.

The main objective of school-based management is to increase the quality efficiency and equity of education. Increased efficiency is achieved through flexibility in managing existing resources, community participation, and simplification of the bureaucracy. Quality improvement is obtained through parental participation, flexibility in school management, increased teacher professionalism, rewards and punishments as controls, and other things that can foster a conducive atmosphere.
