IMPLEMENTASI MANAJEMEN PESANTREN RAMAH ANAK: LANGKAH STRATEGIS MENEPIS STIGMA NEGATIF.

Abstract

The increasing incidence of violence and bullying, along with inadequate child protection in Islamic boarding schools, highlights the need for safer governance that prioritizes students’ well-being. Although child-friendly Islamic boarding schools have been widely examined in terms of policy and violence prevention, studies on their implementation through management functions remain limited. This study aims to analyze the implementation of child-friendly Islamic boarding school management through the functions of planning, organizing, actuating, and controlling, known as POAC, at Pesantren Azmania Ponorogo. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study design. Six informants were purposively selected based on their involvement in program management, comprising student care personnel, school and madrasah principals, male and female student mentors, and students. Data were collected through participant observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model. Data credibility was strengthened through source and technique triangulation. The findings indicate that planning involved needs assessment, policy formulation, and forums with students’ parents; organizing included task allocation and external partnerships; actuating comprised non-physical disciplinary practices, student participation, and the provision of supporting facilities; and controlling was conducted through evaluation meetings and the Daily Performance application. The implementation of POAC supports safer, more participatory, humanistic, and transparent Islamic boarding school governance and has the potential to strengthen child protection and public trust.

ABSTRAK

Meningkatnya kasus kekerasan, perundungan, dan lemahnya perlindungan anak di pesantren menunjukkan perlunya tata kelola yang lebih aman dan berorientasi pada kesejahteraan santri. Meskipun pesantren ramah anak telah banyak dikaji dari aspek kebijakan dan pencegahan kekerasan, implementasinya melalui fungsi manajemen masih terbatas. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis implementasi manajemen pesantren ramah anak melalui fungsi perencanaan, pengorganisasian, pelaksanaan, dan pengawasan atau POAC di Pesantren Azmania Ponorogo. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan desain studi kasus. Penelitian ini melibatkan enam informan yang dipilih secara purposif berdasarkan keterlibatan mereka dalam pengelolaan program, terdiri atas pengelola pengasuhan, kepala madrasah dan sekolah, musyrif dan musyrifah, serta santri. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi partisipatif, wawancara mendalam, dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis menggunakan model interaktif Miles dan Huberman. Keabsahan data diperkuat melalui triangulasi sumber dan teknik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perencanaan mencakup analisis kebutuhan, penyusunan kebijakan, dan forum dengan wali santri; pengorganisasian meliputi pembagian tugas dan kemitraan eksternal; pelaksanaan mencakup pengasuhan tanpa hukuman fisik, partisipasi santri, dan penyediaan sarana pendukung; sedangkan pengawasan dilakukan melalui rapat evaluasi dan aplikasi Daily Performance. Penerapan POAC mendukung tata kelola pesantren yang lebih aman, partisipatif, humanis, dan transparan serta berpotensi memperkuat perlindungan anak dan kepercayaan masyarakat.
