Abstract

The primary aim of this study is to explore how transformational leadership influences school management and to identify effective strategies that support sustainable environmental development. This qualitative research employs case studies involving school principals, five teachers, three students, and three parents from junior high schools in Malang City that have implemented green school (Adiwiyata) programs. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, direct observations, and document analysis. Triangulation was used to analyze the data, ensuring the accuracy and credibility of the findings. The results indicate that transformational leadership is crucial in implementing green school policies by fostering stakeholder motivation and engagement in sustainability practices. Key challenges include resistance to change and limited resources. Effective strategies involve enhancing leadership training, fostering participatory policy development, and integrating environmentally friendly technologies. This study offers valuable insights for improving managerial practices in green schools and advancing environmental sustainability in the education sector.
