Implementation of Physical Education, Sports and Health Learning at Madrasah of Miftahul Muta'alimin Islamic Boarding School, Cirebon Regency

This research aims to describe the implementation of Physical Education learning at Madrasah Pondok Pesantren Miftahul Muta'alimin (Miftahul Muta'alimin Islamic Boarding School). Learning implementation in this research includes planning, implementation, and assessment/evaluation, as well as the obstacles and supports that influence these implementations. This research used a descriptive qualitative approach. The data were obtained through interviews, observations, and documentation. The data validity was tested by using source triangulation. Observations and documentation were used as supporting data to strengthen the interview results. The research subjects consisted of the principals of Islamic Junior High Schools (MTs) and Islamic Junior High Schools (MA), a Physical Education teacher, and four students (two from each MTs and two from the MA). The data analysis was conducted through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The research findings indicate that the implementation of Physical Education learning has followed the planning, implementation, and evaluation stages, but has not been optimal. Planning remains administrative in nature and has not fully adapted to student characteristics. Learning implementation includes an introduction, core, and closing phase, but lacks of method variation and active student involvement. Assessment/evaluation has covered cognitive, affective, and psychomotor aspects, but it is still limited to final assessments and it is not yet sustainable. Furthermore, limited infrastructure and teacher backgrounds pose challenges. Despite this, madrasah and Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) generally support the implementation of Physical Education (PE) learning.
