“…The implications of applying the principal's leadership values are religious values, discipline values, and fair values are changes in value agreements, the formation of organizational culture and the formation of individual habits to improve overall organizational performance. The value agreement that forms the basis of behavior and policies can be seen in the management of SMP Darul Qur'an, which includes: [1] religious values that underlie daily behavior in carrying out school obligations, including the obligation to carry out religious obligations (prayer, Koran), [2] discipline values which is shown through participation in school activities in the form of monitoring through attendance and activity books (for teachers), Al-Qur'an guidance books, prayer attendance books, ubudiyah skills requirements (for students) attendance data and awareness in carrying out predetermined activities, [3] the value of tolerance shown through policies for teachers in learning and the burden of carrying out tasks by providing the necessary facilities, [4] fair value shown by giving a burden according to the competence of each subordinate and giving awards for subordinates who show achievement.…”

School quality is the most important aspect and a major issue in the education system. This research aims to explore the influence of teamwork and curriculum effectiveness on improving school quality. The method employed is based on a quantitative design with a survey approach. A questionnaire was used to collect data from 146 respondents. School quality is the key variable in this research. The data analysis was conducted using SmartPLS software to provide detailed information on the contribution of each variable's indicators. The findings of this research indicate a strong contribution from each variable in enhancing school quality. The R-square value for the curriculum effectiveness variable is 0.365, meaning that this variable contributes to a 36.5% improvement in school quality. On the other hand, the teamwork variable contributes 62.3% to school quality. These results clearly demonstrate the originality of this research, highlighting that teamwork in schools has a higher contribution value than curriculum effectiveness. The future research needs to examine how to establish teamwork in Islamic educational institutions as an effort to enhance quality.

The practice of team teaching—how teachers deliver team teaching in the classroom—substantially determines its effect. The collaboration between the teachers and the level of shared responsibility between them are two important dimensions of the team teaching practice. To date, no instrument exists to measure these dimensions. However, in view of empirical research within the context of team teaching, such an instrument is important. Therefore, the Collaboration and Shared Responsibility in Team Teaching (CSTT) scale is developed, making it possible to assess these two important dimensions. The CSTT scale was used in a large-scale cross-sectional survey study (n = 555). Next to a validation of the scale, this study provides empirical evidence on the differences between groups of teachers regarding (a) teaching experience, (b) education type, and (c) frequency of team teaching. Results show that teachers overall report high scores on both dimensions. Further, this study indicates that there are no significant differences between the groups based on (a) teaching experience and (b) education type for both collaboration and shared responsibility. There are, however, significant differences between groups in terms of the (c) frequency of team teaching.
