“…b) Community groups are involved and feel they own the school. c) The best schools in demand by the community are schools whose principals understand and apply school-based governance; their educators and their regions work together effectively to foster the school (DiGiorgio, 2010;Suroso et al, 2021). The implementation of SBM requires structuring efforts, with the aim that the implementation of different parts of the school does not cover up, throwing tasks and obligations at each other.…”

Every development in a country certainly requires a set of policies to be implemented, including the education sector. This study aims to obtain evidence of scientific studies regarding the relevance of educational policy formulation to implementation in the field. A series of related literature searches in many journals, publications, books, and websites actively discuss education policy and implementation issues to support this study. We can use this data as finding data after going through a series of studies involving a critical evaluation data coding system and concluding after interpreting the data in-depth under a phenomenological approach. The data is genuinely valid and up-to-date. Based on the results of the study and discussion of this study, it can be concluded that the implementation of education policy is an action that is closely related to how the administration of education is carried out with full responsibility following the programmed mandate of the constitution, the aim of which is to improve qualified and stately accountable education. It is hoped that this finding will become an essential input for efforts to develop similar studies in future research events.

“…Consumer parents, who may be expected to be empowered (Allen, 2000), can be seen as a driving force (DiGiorgio, 2010) in pursuit of an education with perceived advantages in international higher education (Clifford and Montgomery, 2017) and employment markets (Brown et al, 2011). Whereas the school might conventionally be considered 'the privileged locus of learning' (Goodall, 2017: 5), under globalised and marketised conditions we ask how and in what ways do international schools' parents disrupt this convention.…”

Recently, increases in numbers of international schools have been fuelled by a growth in numbers of aspirational families selecting them. The perception that international education affords children access to social advantages has been established in the school choice literature, but there has yet to be an examination of this trend in relation to parental engagement in international schools. Views of parents on this growing trend will be sought in a separate study, but in this paper we approach the problem through international school staff perceptions of issues relating to parents. These emerged during interviews with those responsible for implementing one part of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme: Creativity, Activity, Service. A communities of educational practice framework, adapted for parental engagement, indicated previously unidentified tensions in the international school/parent relationship. Conditions in international education markets create conditions that tip the balance of power, conventionally with the school, towards already-privileged international school parents, raising important questions about the relationship between international schools and social inequalities perpetuated by education.

“…Along with the documented benefits of career and college readiness, enrollment in the IB DP or CP tends to be influenced by parents (DiGiorgio, 2010). Families perceive that there is a postsecondary advantage in enrolling their students in IB programs, which becomes a motivating factor in student enrollment in the IB (DiGiorgio, 2010). Because parents or other family members can impact a students’ decision to enroll in secondary coursework or postsecondary coursework, the perceived benefits of the parents or family members become a large factor in program enrollment.…”

The purpose of this study was to explore 11th- and 12th-grade students’ expectations in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IB DP) at a high school in the Western United States. Study participants included 92 of 94 high school students currently enrolled in the IB DP. Each participant completed a researcher-created, paper survey with 24 questions, using a 5-point Likert-type scale, as well as four demographic questions. Overall, students reported high expectations and beliefs for the program in helping them prepare for postsecondary education. Findings also suggested that females experienced more stress and feelings of being overwhelmed, while enrolled in the program as compared with males, despite a larger percentage of females reporting of postsecondary plans. In addition, Spanish-speaking students aspired to community college more than their peers, suggesting possible disparities in equity. A discussion of these findings and their implications are provided.
