especially moral/religion, the level of welfare of life and the availability of relevant
employment (Jones & Walter, 2008).
Microcontextually, human resources are people who work in the environment of an
organization called employees, employees, personnel, leaders/managers, workers, labor, labor
employers etc. In the organizational environment of education are all administrative
employees, educators/teachers, lecturers and other education personnel.
The school as an organization in which groups of people are gathered, each of which is
both individually and in groups to cooperate with each other to achieve the goal. The human
groups in question are human resources consisting of principals, teachers, administrative
personnel/staff, learners, and groups of parents of students.
Schools have resources that can be utilized to achieve educational goals. Educational
resources in schools can be grouped into: a) Non-human resources, which include school
programs, curriculum, b) Human resources (HR) which includes principals, teachers, staff,
other education personnel, students, parents of students, and communities that have concern
for the school, c) Physical resources (SDF) that include buildings, rooms, equipment,
educational props, study time, and physical appearance of the school, and d) Financial
resources (SDK) which includes the entire school management fund received from both the
government and the community (Suryadi, 1995).
The school is the determining institution in the work of educational development, because
of the bureaucratic rows associated with the development of education, the school as the
implementer of all planned educational programs from the central level to the operational level
in the school (Suryadi, 1995). The back and forth of education is largely determined by the
implementation that is in the hands of educators in schools. Therefore, without ruling out the
importance of other factors that also affect the quality of education, educators and education
personnel in schools must get optimal management and development. This is in line with the
efforts that have been made by the government in order to improve the quality of education
with the creation of various policies related to the element of security in schools.
Policies in order to improve the quality of education that have been made by the
government include the 1945 Constitution, Law No. 20 of 2003 on The National Education
System, Law No. 14 of 2005 on Teachers and Lecturers, Government Regulation No. 19 of
2005 on National Standards of Education, Permendiknas No. 12 of 2007 on Competence of
School Supervisors, Permendiknas No. 13 of 2007 on Competence of Principals,
Permendiknas No. 16 of 2007 on Teacher Competence, Permendiknas No. 19 of 2007 on
Educator Management Standards and many more government policies aimed at the
development of education.
These policies are very important as a basis for carrying out various educational activities
in schools. However, it needs to be realized to bring success in achieving educational goals,
the key remains in school. Whatever the government's provisions for developing education, but
without the implementation of educational programs at the school level, these policies will
become less meaningful for the development of education. Therefore, as a continuation and is
a very important operational policy is the existence of good implementation at the school level.
This is also certainly related to the School policy which is the result of mutual agreement of all
educational stakeholders in the school environment with regard to the rules in carrying out the
