Abstract

The purpose of this study is to describe, find and analyze the role of the principal in improving school quality through human resource management at SMPIT Al Islam Kudus. This research is a type of qualitative case study research. Data collection techniques were carried out using interview techniques, observation and documentation studies both carried out by researchers directly or through the assistance of other parties. Data analysis in this study uses the Miles and Huberman model, where the analysis is carried out at the time the data collection takes place, and after the data collection is completed within a certain period. The results of this study indicate that the head of SMPIT Al Islam Kudus has carried out his role in improving school quality through human resource management. This management was developed by holding a spiritual development program that focuses on personality and character. Recruitment of educators and education staff was also carried out without any intervention from the foundation. In addition, appreciation and support from school principals and foundations for the intense self-development of teachers and employees and students makes it a special attraction for human resources to be loyal to the institution.
