School culture is an integral part of the school that can affect the quality of behavior and can change students' cognitive patterns. The values of Pancasila as the ideology of the nation can be incorporated into school culture as a special feature of education in Indonesia. The importance of internalizing school culture as a process of habituation in growing student awareness must have the support of all school members. The purpose of this study is to foster student's awareness of the values of Pancasila as a view of the life of the Indonesian nation through the internalization of school culture. The research method used is descriptive qualitative. Data collection used in this study was field observations, interviews, and document analysis. Analysis of the data used is the display of data, data reduction, data presentation, and concluding. The results showed that the internalization of school culture to foster awareness of Pancasila values can be done through structuring the maintained and maintained physical environment of the school, structuring the school's social environment with social activities, structuring school personnel with the creation of security, order, and comfort of school residents, classroom management by applying the values of Pancasila in each learning process, the leadership of the principal by synergizing all components of the school, building a solid work spirit, improving school quality.

School Culture-Based Internalization of Nationalism and Religious Characters in Islamic Elementary School

“…Instilling character through school culture involves structuring the physical environment and implementing effective classroom management (Nurizka, Irawan, Sakti, & Hidayat, 2020). A school environment infused with patriotic and religious nuances significantly aids in fostering these character traits.…”

The effect of teacher empowerment-based course program on teachers' knowledge of Pancasila character on the Indonesia-Malaysia literacy

“…Similarly, Susanti (2020), reports an increase in student awareness and engagement in building character aligned with cultural and ethical values through socialization activities promoting Pancasila character literacy. Increased awareness is not only observed by students but also by the school in assisting and shaping students with Pancasila character (Nurizka et al, 2020). This indicates that literacy-based training programs focused on Pancasila characters can enhance teachers' comprehension of Pancasila values and students' literacy abilities (Mudjiyanto et al, 2021).…”

The competences to conduct the profile of student pancasila in islamic junior secondary school

“…Pancasila's values takes on a critical role in nurturing the ethos of the nation in young minds. Despite this acknowledged importance (Muqsith et al, 2022), scholarly inquiries into the competencies required by teachers to effectively embed these values within Islamic junior secondary schools remain relatively scarce (Nurizka et al, 2020).…”

“…However, a palpable gap persists in the comprehension and enactment of these revered values within Islamic junior high schools. This research thereby pivots on two pivotal questions: firstly, discerning the nexus between the competencies of educators and the grasp of Pancasila by their students; and secondly, unveiling the multitude of elements that sculpt students' conceptualization of Pancasila (Nurizka et al, 2020) (Masrukhin et al, 2021).…”

“…The concept of Pancasila stands as the ideological bedrock of the Indonesian nation (Nurizka et al, 2020), offering not only a philosophical framework for governance but also a moral compass for its citizens@. Pancasila encompasses five fundamental precepts that together articulate a comprehensive outlook on life, emphasizing spiritual, social, and political values.…”
