Abstract
This academic article aims to analyze the role of schools in developing learners according to the school curriculum, examine the significance and application of active learning approaches, and propose a suitable management model for enhancing learner development within the school context. Based on a review of concepts, theories, and related literature, the synthesis indicates that effective educational management should integrate the PDCA cycle into curriculum components while adopting learner-centered policies. Incorporating active learning into school management systems can significantly improve learner outcomes in terms of academic achievement, analytical thinking, collaboration, and moral development. Nevertheless, challenges remain regarding limited resources, instructional time, and examination-oriented culture. The article therefore proposes a management model comprising four key components: establishing quality-oriented policies and visions, restructuring learning management, supporting teachers and staff, and implementing competency-based assessments. The proposed model includes sequential steps from policy formulation to sustainable development, enabling schools to enhance learner quality and essential competencies for the 21st century effectively.
