Jabatan Kepala Sekolah; Antara Jabatan Administrasi Atau Jabatan Politik

Abstract

The principal's position is the highest administrative office in the school. The  principal has an important role in coordinating, mobilizing and harmonizing  all available educational resources in the school in order to realize the school's  vision, mission, goals and objectives through programs that are implemented  in a planned and gradual manner. To produce a professional headmaster, the  recruitment process is an important stage that must be carried out  professionally, transparently and accountably. The stages that must be carried  out in the recruitment of principals are: (a) nomination of candidates by the  principal / madrasah and / or supervisor of the school / madrasah, (b)  administrative selection, (c) academic selection. But in the process in the field,  the recruitment stage is often ignored and almost not carried out and even  strongly suspected by political interests.
