The Importance of Community Engagement in Education Management in Early Childhood Education in 4.0 Era

Abstract

Early childhood education aims to develop the basis of intelligence, knowledge, personality, noble character, and skills to attend education among children aged 4-6 years, called the age of gold. Community involvement in school development is fitting, because education is part of the essence of people's lives. The community has interests not just in school development, but primarily to improve quality in the framework of forming social roles through various forms of participation in early childhood education institutions. Community involvement in school activities is a feature of good relationships between schools and communities, meaning that the extent to which the community can be empowered in the education process in schools is an indicator of the school management in question.
