Stakeholder Involvement Strategies in the Implementation of School-Based Management in Indonesian Public Senior Secondary Schools

The basic premise of School-Based Management (SBM) is that strong stakeholder involvement is the determining characteristics of high-performing schools. Using High-Involvement Management model as the framework, this study examined stakeholder involvement strategies in Indonesian public schools. Designed quantitatively, the study found that there were different strategies used for student, parent and teacher involvement. The difference is linked to the lack of formally established structures and the experience to exercise the delegated authority. The results imply that the adopted strategies do not really facilitate the involvement required for SBM implementation
