Abstract

The quality of Islamic education at Madrasah Aliyah Swasta Pondok Pesantren Terpadu Istiqamah Simawang, Tanah Datar Regency, remains suboptimal despite the availability of adequate physical facilities. This study aims to analyse the role of human resource management (HRM) in improving the quality of Islamic education, to describe the strategies employed in managing human resources, and to identify both supporting and inhibiting factors in their implementation. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. Key informants included the principal, vice principal of curriculum, head of human resources, senior teachers, and administrative staff. The findings reveal that the lack of educational quality is primarily due to weaknesses in several aspects of HRM, including a recruitment system that is not based on merit, limited training and professional development programs, ineffective performance evaluation mechanisms, and the absence of a competency-based reward system. These shortcomings hinder the professional growth of educators and affect the overall institutional performance. The study highlights the urgent need for comprehensive and integrated HRM reform in Islamic educational institutions. Strengthening HRM through merit-based recruitment, continuous capacity building, systematic performance appraisal, and fair incentive systems is essential for advancing the quality of Islamic education in madrasahs. Therefore, human resource management must be positioned as a strategic foundation in achieving educational excellence that is responsive to contemporary challenges and societal expectations.
