- Abstract
During the last two decades, character education policy has become a major issue in Indonesia. To implement the policy properly, principals are required to be able to integrate character education into curricular, intra-curricular and extra-curricular activities in schools. These ideal conditions, however, are not much known as little is reported about the contribution of the principal’s leadership to the implementation of character education policies. The current study aims to uncover the Principal’s strategic leadership models in Sumbawa Regency in enhancing their potentials to implement character education policies in schools. A qualitative research design with a multi-case study approach was utilized as a basis for collecting, analyzing and comparing data from this study. The procedures and stages of activities undertaken in this study include collecting preliminary data on various leadership models through observation, interviews and document studies. Data analysis involves data reduction, data display and conclusion drawing. Results of the study succinctly report that a number of school principals developed innovative leadership models based on religious values and self-efficacy. From this research, a description of success factors and impeding factors that affect the application of character in schools is obtained.
