Implementation of Contextual-Based Islamic Education Strategic Planning: Literature Review of Practices in Indonesia

Abstract

Strategic planning is an important factor in the implementation of the development of Islamic educational institutions so that they are able to adapt to increasingly complex social, cultural, and community needs. In the context of education in Indonesia, a contextual-based approach is needed to show that the strategies made are related to local realities. This study aims to examine the application of contextual-based Islamic educational strategic planning to practices in Indonesia through a literature review approach. The method uses a literature study approach by analyzing various scientific articles, research reports, and relevant policy documents. The results of the study show that Islamic educational institutions that implement contextual-based strategic planning tend to be responsive to the needs of students and the surrounding community. This implementation also contributes to improving the quality of governance and the effectiveness of school learning programs. However, various obstacles were found, such as weak managerial capacity, limited contextual data, and less than optimal stakeholder involvement. The implications of these findings emphasize the importance of strengthening strategic leadership capacity, integrating local data into the planning process, and formulating flexible and participatory policies as supporters for the transformation of sustainable Islamic education.
