Implementation of Strengthening Governance of Cultural and Citizenship Literacy in Gunungpati State Kindergarten, Semarang City

Abstract

This research is motivated by the importance of cultural and citizenship literacy (LBK) in PAUD institutions in Ulya's research (2023) especially in the dimensions of strengthening governance. This study aims to determine the implementation of LBK in PAUD Institutions in Gunungpati District and to determine the implementation of strengthening governance in Gunungpati State Kindergarten (TK N) Semarang City. This research uses a qualitative approach with secondary data study methods and case studies. The subjects in this research were educators at TK Negeri Gunungpati. Data collection techniques use observation, interviews, documents and triangulation. The data analysis technique uses analysis before, during using the Miles and Huberman model, and after in the field. The results showed that PAUD institutions in Gunungpati District had implemented LBK well with a percentage of 77% and TK Negeri Gunungpati had also implemented LBK from the dimension of time allocation or schedule; budget allocation; forming a school literacy team; school policy making; and strengthening the role of the school committee. Even though supervisors have not been involved in the school literacy team and the school committee has not collaborated with outside parties to support activities related to LBK. The limitations of this research are that this research is only limited to the implementation of the dimensions of strengthening cultural and citizenship literacy governance which is only carried out in Gunungpati N Kindergarten using participating educators. It is better if further research can look at the implementation of LBK governance from the school principal, supervisors, school committees, as well as students and within the scope of other schools, families and communities.
