Abstract

Several models has been developed in Indonesia in improving the school quality.One of them is a model of developing one school as a core-school ("sekolah inti"), from which the other surrounding (a cluster) schools (named impacted-school or "sekolah-imbas) are expected to get its impact ("imbas") through "sekolah inti dan imbas"cooperation, in which the core-school became a development center for a cluster of schools. The core-school is a selected school which has higher quality resources, especially in human resources, than the other surrounding schools. This school staffs, after experienced a special training, has been given responsibility to pull up the other school staffs in improving school quality. A"sekolah inti-imbas model"like has been developed in Muhammadiyah schools, a private schools which is belong to Muhammadiyah organization, in Yogyakarta. This model firstly developed by Muhammadiyah Primary School at Sapen, Yogyakarta. Several Muhammadiyah primary schools then affiliated with and took the name of this school as a "benchmark"for public reputation and trust. One of them is Muhammadiyah Primary School at Condongcatur which is named as "Muhammadiyah Sapen Primary School at Condongcatur."Nowaday, this school, after releasing from Sapen "subordination,"become a "father figure" school, bringing the other lower level quality and near collapsed Muhammadiyah schools, even a junior high school, to be sustained and higher quality schools. In other words, several Muhammadiyah schools in Yogyakarta have developed a "fosterparenting" model to "move up together"to be the best schools. Keywords: Muhammadiyah schools,"model anak angkat" (fosterparenting model), school quality improvement.

Review

This article introduces a compelling "model anak angkat" (fosterparenting model) for enhancing school quality, building upon the established "sekolah inti-imbas" (core-impacted school) framework prevalent in Indonesia. The abstract effectively outlines the evolution of this concept, particularly within the Muhammadiyah private school network in Yogyakarta. It highlights how a high-quality core school, initially Muhammadiyah Primary School Sapen, serves as a benchmark and development hub for surrounding, often weaker, schools. The fascinating transformation of Muhammadiyah Primary School Condongcatur from an "impacted" school under Sapen to a "father figure" supporting other struggling Muhammadiyah institutions, including a junior high school, provides a unique and insightful case study into community-driven educational improvement. The strength of this proposed model lies in its organic, collaborative, and potentially sustainable approach to educational development. By leveraging the expertise and resources of high-performing schools to uplift others within the same organizational network, it presents an alternative to purely top-down or government-led initiatives. The "move up together" philosophy inherent in the "fosterparenting" model suggests a strong sense of shared responsibility and solidarity, which could foster robust peer learning and collective capacity building among schools. This community-based strategy, particularly within a significant private education provider like Muhammadiyah, offers valuable lessons for resource optimization and quality improvement in diverse educational contexts. While the abstract successfully piques interest in the "model anak angkat," a comprehensive review of the full paper would necessitate a deeper dive into several critical aspects. The current abstract does not detail the specific mechanisms, strategies, and interventions employed by the "fosterparenting" schools to support their "anak angkat." Further elaboration on the criteria for selecting foster schools, the challenges encountered during implementation, and the quantitative or qualitative evidence of the model's impact on student outcomes, teacher performance, and overall school quality would significantly strengthen the study. Exploring the generalizability of this model beyond the Muhammadiyah context and its long-term sustainability would also be crucial to fully understand its broader implications for national school quality improvement efforts.
