One of the areas worked on in school-based management is financing management. Good financing management is necessary because it is believed that with efficient and effective school financial management, errors, leakages, and variations in the use of funds from the original plan and goals will be avoided. Schools are empowered to assess their own needs through school-based financing management, which transfers control over budget allocation and use to schools. To completely reduce dependence on government funding, schools are also allowed to engage in income-generating activities. Financing management needs to be carried out carefully, diligently, and comply with relevant regulations when implementing school-based management. The preparation of school revenue and expenditure budget plans (RAPBS) as well as various forms and sources of school funding are all included in the idea of school-based financing management.

For managers, budgeting is a very important issue that affects the future survival of the organization. Given that key stakeholders are often involved in budget preparation, this preparation process raises questions regarding the relationship between participation in budget preparation and management motivation and performance. This article explains that when subordinates are involved in management, they are more likely to accept budget goals and therefore more motivated to participate in budget planning. Another aspect is that participation in budget preparation has a positive impact on budget adequacy. If the budget is decided unilaterally, the opposite will be true. This involvement motivates subordinates to be more proactive in achieving budget goals. From another perspective, subordinate participation in budgeting means that planning results are more realistic because subordinates have more accurate information about local conditions than superiors.

This study examines the issue of law enforcement related to the conversion of Green Open Spaces (GOS) in urban areas. Using a normative juridical research method with legislative and conceptual approaches, this research analyzes the implementation of Law No. 26 of 2007 on Spatial Planning, which mandates the availability of GOS at a minimum of 30% of the total urban area. The findings indicate that law enforcement in GOS conversion faces multiple challenges, including inconsistent regulatory implementation, budget constraints, weak inter-agency coordination, and obstacles in monitoring and enforcement. The pressures of urban facility development and population growth due to urbanization further complicate efforts to preserve GOS. Optimizing the role of local governments in GOS protection and management is carried out through the implementation of the Spatial and Regional Planning  involving various related agencies. The Ministry of Environment’s Adipura Program also plays a role in promoting enhanced environmental management performance by adhering to eight essential criteria within legal products related to environmental and ecosystem protection. This study recommends strengthening the GOS management system through improved inter-agency coordination, adequate budget provision, and the consistent application of firm sanctions.  

The administration of government in Indonesia is based on a systemic approach which includes a central government system, called the government, as well as a regional government system. In the practice of government administration, there are concepts of centralization and decentralization that regulate the relationship between central and regional governments. The concept of centralization reflects the characteristic where all authority for administering government is centered in the central government, while the concept of decentralization shows the characteristic where some authority for government affairs, which was previously the responsibility of the central government, is delegated to regional governments . According to Law Number 23 of 2014 concerning Regional Government, the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) has a clear position as an integral regional people's representative institution in the administration of government at the local level. DPRD is not just a representative institution, but is also an inseparable part of the regional government structure. The function of the DPRD includes three main aspects, namely legislation, budgeting and supervision. (Kasenda et al., 2020). In an effort to realize this target, the Regional People's Representative Council (DPRD) needs to take concrete steps that can optimally strengthen its role in the context of regional government. The APBD is the implementation of the people's wishes for the government through the DPRD to improve welfare and services to the community. APBD is also the regional government's annual financial planning which is approved by the DPRD and made into policy through regional regulations. As a legislative institution, the DPRD has the responsibility to supervise the use of the budget and the implementation of regional government programs. Effective supervision is expected to increase transparency, accountability, and ensure that the benefits of the programs designed are truly felt by the community, especially those who need it most. Based on this description, the author is interested in conducting further research on the function of the Deli Serdang Regency DPRD in implementing the Regional Revenue and Expenditure Budget in the Development Sector. In formulating regional government policies, both from the executive and legislative branches, the orientation is to pay attention to the welfare of the people. Based on the results of the analysis and discussion, the conclusion is that direct supervision has a positive and significant effect on the effectiveness of supervision. Direct supervision has a positive and significant effect on APBD implementation. Indirect supervision has a positive and significant effect on the effectiveness of supervision. Indirect supervision has a positive and significant effect on APBD implementation. The effectiveness of supervision has a positive and significant effect on APBD implementation. Direct supervision has a positive and significant effect on APBD implementation through the effectiveness of supervision. Indirect supervision has a positive and significant effect on APBD implementation through the effectiveness of supervision.

This study aims to analyze the implementation of the management of educational facilities and infrastructure and its contribution to increasing the effectiveness of learning at SMPI Darul Ulum Sangatta Utara. The research background is based on the importance of the role of facilities and infrastructure in supporting an optimal, effective, and meaningful learning process.

The development of the art of reading the Qur'an (tilawah) plays an important role in maintaining the Qur'anic tradition in North Sumatra, especially since this region is one of the regions actively involved in organizing the Musabaqah Tilawatil Qur'an (MTQ). However, the quality of development at the district/city level is not evenly distributed, thus impacting the ability of qari and qari'ah to achieve professional tilawah standards. This study aims to analyze the development program of the art of reading the Qur'an implemented by the LPTQ of North Sumatra Province, including the form of activities, implementation mechanisms, and its effectiveness in improving participant competence. The research method uses a descriptive qualitative approach through direct observation of development activities, analysis of official institutional documents, and supporting documentation related to the training process and implementation of the MTQ. The results show that the LPTQ development program includes routine development, Training Center (TC), and Training of Trainers (ToT), each of which has a different contribution to improving participant abilities. Routine development serves as a foundation, TC has proven to be most effective in maturing participants before the MTQ, while ToT plays a role in increasing the capacity of trainers in the region. However, the program's overall effectiveness remains hampered by a limited number of expert trainers, limited facilities, regional disparities, and low interest among young people in the art of tilawah. This study concludes that training needs to be strengthened through equitable distribution of trainers, increased program intensity, utilization of digital media, and more stable budget support to achieve sustainable tilawah training in North Sumatra.
