Implementasi Program Pembinaan Kinerja Profesional Guru di Sekolah Menengah Pertama Negeri 1 Pasir Limau Kapas

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the teacher professional performance development program at SMP Negeri 1 Pasir Limau Kapas. The study used a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data collection was conducted through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies, while data analysis used an interactive analysis model. The results of the study indicate that teacher professional performance development is implemented through a continuous cycle that includes performance planning, performance implementation, performance assessment, and follow-up and development. Program implementation is supported by policy alignment between the local government and educational units and the role of the principal as a professional mentor through reflective supervision. Teacher performance assessment is not only administrative, but also serves as a basis for planning further teacher professional development. This study provides an empirical contribution in the form of a continuous cycle-based model for teacher professional performance development at the junior high school level, which has implications for improving the quality of learning.
