Abstract

This study aims to analyze the influence of school principal leadership on teacher performance in the perspective of Islamic education management. The study uses a quantitative approach with a correlational design conducted in Islamic-based educational institutions, with teachers as the main respondents. The sampling technique uses proportional random sampling, while data collection is carried out through questionnaires, observations, and documentation. Data analysis uses simple linear regression to test the relationships and influences between variables. The results showed that the leadership of the principal had a significant and positive influence on teacher performance, with the correlation level being in the strong category. Effective leadership, especially one that integrates transformational, participatory, and Islamic spiritual values such as trust, justice, and deliberation, has been proven to increase teacher motivation, professionalism, and responsibility. These findings confirm that the leadership of school principals is a strategic factor in improving the quality of education, although it is still influenced by other factors such as teacher competence, intrinsic motivation, and support for facilities and infrastructure. Therefore, a holistic leadership model based on Islamic values is needed to support the continuous improvement of teacher performance.
