Islamic education is equally important in a Muslim's life as any other level of education. To assess the successful inclusion of Islamic education in Indonesian higher education institutes, this study looked into the successful execution of the Islamic education curriculum via the education management system. The study used a qualitative research approach, with higher education institutes inside Indonesia's demographic boundaries being investigated and data collected. Semi-structured interviews were used to obtain data from higher authorities and administrative workers who interact with the Islamic curriculum in higher education establishments. The data was analysed using thematic analysis, which resulted in various themes indicating several potential constructs that defined the successful implementation of the Islamic education curriculum, such as systematic approaches, cultural alignment, structured decision making, agile response systems, and so on. The contributions, limits, and future ideas are discussed in the peripheral portions of the study.

Teachers are the pillars of the development of society's building blocks, i.e., the students; therefore, for the effective and constructive nourishment of the students, the performance of the teachers must be excellent with the support of external elements. To empirically analyse teachers' performance, this study employed a quantitative research technique, elucidating the influence of school environment, character development, and school administration on teachers' performance levels through the mediation of the efficacy component of individual personality. The study targeted high school teachers in Indonesia, collected data purposefully using a survey instrument, and used a total of 227 legitimate and effective responses to compile the results. The research found substantial results for all direct interactions, and mediation was recommended for the school climate and teacher performance. The study added a fresh piece of evidence to the literature by shedding light on the impact of external environmental elements at the school level on teachers' performance.
