Implementing the management of madrasah change starts from an authentic leadership. Authentic leadership is the identity of a head of madrasah in developing value-based educational system. His identity is seen from his sincerity in working, his kindness in treating people and the sharpness of his mind in determining the future of the organization. The authentic leadership of madrasah should represent the identity of moslem morality with work orientation on the sincerity of being a STAF+B (Siddiq, Tablig, Amanah, Fathonah + Brave) leader. Leading the madrasah in the context of implementing management of change is not enough to be pious but it requires courage to take strategic and innovative decisions in realizing a qualified madrasah. This research aims to find an authentic leadership strategy model for management of change by head of madrasah. The research was conducted on the head of madrasah in Pangandaran Regency. The results show that the application of authentic leadership can build madrasah changes by empowering the Professional Learning Community (PLC) in which 4CS strategy is implemented in a reciprocal (cumsuis-Casing, Communicating, Competencies, Contribution, Sample). The followers can identify who the authentic leader is by finding the integrity of identity that represents in: his mind is vision; his heart is good and his legs work hard.

Out-of-field teaching continues to be a persisting problem in the Philippine educational system – similarly evident in the rural school where this study was conducted. As an intervention, the researchers organized a professional learning community in the form of a school learning action cell (SLAC) to provide assistance to the teachers. They were then interviewed to determine the perceived effects of the intervention. Results of the study revealed that SLAC sessions contribute to the general well-being of the teachers in their view of the profession as it ‘reduced their tasks’ and ‘promoted workplace collaboration.’ On the other hand, it also impacted their pedagogy, which was found to have contributed to their ‘instructional mastery’ and ‘teacher efficacy.’ The researchers, however, caution that, though the intervention was found to be successful, it should be taken in its suggestive nature when out-of-field teaching is unavoidable. When feasible, the idyllic educational landscape should assign teachers according to their respective specialized fields.

In 2003, I began a longitudinal study into the purpose of education. The process of my investigation included getting involved in new innovations as they were introduced to our school board. As I looked deeper into the purpose of schooling I discovered some startling things about how and why systems of education, through the apparatus of schooling, influence who and what, professionally, people become. I also discovered patterns related to the act of becoming that exist in school reforms. This study analyzes three reforms introduced between 2003 and 2017: Professional Learning Community, Differentiation of Instruction, and Social-Emotional Learning.

The article presents a theoretical and empirical analysis of institutional factors of creation and development of successful teacher professional learning communities. On the basis of the conducted theoretical analysis, institutional factors were systemised and divided into four groups:factors related to organisational culture, to processes, to organisational structure, and factors related to financial and material resources.The empirical research reveals the relevance of theoretically distinguished factors to the practical processes of creation and development of successful teacher professional learning communities. It also singles out new factors that have not been investigated by other scholars and highlights the encountered barriers.

The purpose of this study was to examine the direct and indirect effects of teacher’s attitude, readiness, and self-efficacy on the implementation of the Professional Learning Community (PLC) at urban secondary school teachers in Sabah. Quantitative studies using the survey method were used in this study which involved the total number of 360 teachers as the respondents in this study. Questionnaires were used as the instrument to collect the data. The data obtained were analyzed through Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) Version 25.0 and AMOS. The statistical analysis used were descriptive statistics involving frequency and percentage while inferential statistics involving multiple regression and SEM (path analysis) were used. The results of the structural model of path analysis showed that all three predictor variables were significantly affected by the criterion variable with 18.8%. Teacher’s self-efficacy was found to have the greatest direct impact on the implementation of PLC with the beta value of 0.30. The implications of this study are to increase the level of attitude and readiness of teachers towards the implementation of PLC so that the teachers will possess a high level of self-efficacy. It is hoped that this study will help to formulate new policies related to teacher professionalism development.
