Abstract

Instructional leadership places teaching and learning at the center of madrasah management. This study analyzes the concept of instructional leadership in madrasah management and its contribution to strengthening learning quality. Using a qualitative library research approach, data were drawn from scholarly articles, academic books, and relevant theoretical works and analyzed through qualitative content analysis. The synthesis shows that instructional leadership strengthens learning quality through five interconnected practices: defining and communicating learning goals, managing instructional programs, supervising and monitoring teaching, developing teacher professionalism, and creating a supportive learning climate. In Islamic education, these practices require contextualization through values such as amanah, exemplary conduct, responsibility, consultation, and public benefit. The study concludes that instructional leadership can function as a conceptual framework for madrasah management by aligning managerial functions, teacher development, learning processes, and institutional values toward continuous improvement in learning quality.

Kepemimpinan instruksional menempatkan pembelajaran sebagai pusat manajemen madrasah. Penelitian ini menganalisis konsep kepemimpinan instruksional dalam manajemen madrasah dan kontribusinya terhadap penguatan mutu pembelajaran. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui studi pustaka, dengan data berasal dari artikel ilmiah, buku akademik, dan karya teoretis yang relevan. Data dianalisis menggunakan analisis isi kualitatif melalui reduksi, kategorisasi, interpretasi, dan sintesis. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan instruksional memperkuat mutu pembelajaran melalui lima praktik yang saling terkait, yaitu penetapan dan komunikasi tujuan pembelajaran, pengelolaan program instruksional, supervisi dan monitoring pembelajaran, pengembangan profesionalisme guru, serta penciptaan iklim pembelajaran yang kondusif. Dalam pendidikan Islam, praktik tersebut dikontekstualisasikan melalui nilai amanah, keteladanan, tanggung jawab, musyawarah, dan kemaslahatan. Kepemimpinan instruksional menjadi kerangka konseptual manajemen madrasah yang menyelaraskan fungsi manajerial, pengembangan guru, proses pembelajaran, dan nilai-nilai pendidikan Islam.
