Keywords:
School Based Management, Community Involvement, Quality of Islamic Education, Madrasah, Education Decentralization.Abstract
This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of School-Based Management and community involvement in improving the quality of Islamic education in madrasahs. The background of this study is based on the continuing challenges in the quality of Islamic education, particularly in terms of management, public participation, and optimization of institutional autonomy. This study uses a literature review method with an interpretive qualitative approach through a systematic review of academic literature, education regulations, and contemporary education management theories. The analysis was conducted through data reduction, narrative presentation, and conceptual synthesis to explain the relationship between school autonomy, community participation, and the quality of Islamic education. The results of the study indicate that the effectiveness of School-Based Management is largely determined by the balance between management autonomy and public accountability, professional leadership, a culture of quality, and the active involvement of parents and the community in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of educational programs. Community involvement not only increases the transparency and legitimacy of madrasah policies, but also strengthens a sense of ownership and support for improving the quality of learning. Thus, the implementation of adaptive and participatory School-Based Management within the framework of national education decentralization is a relevant strategy for realizing systemic and sustainable improvements in the quality of Islamic education
