Abstract

Graduate quality is a key indicator of the success of Madrasah Aliyah (Islamic Senior High School) education. However, the quality of Madrasah Aliyah graduates in Indonesia exhibits diverse characteristics due to differences in human resources, principal leadership, organizational culture, learning quality, and support from facilities and infrastructure. This study aims to map the quality of Madrasah Aliyah graduates in Indonesia based on various research findings from 2020–2025. The study used a qualitative approach with library research methods. Data were obtained from national and international journal articles relevant to the theme of Madrasah Aliyah graduate quality. Data analysis was conducted through data reduction, categorization, and thematic synthesis. The results indicate that the quality of Madrasah Aliyah graduates in Indonesia can be grouped into three categories: high quality, medium quality, and low quality. Factors influencing graduate quality include principal leadership, teacher competence, religious culture, learning quality, quality management, and educational financial support. These findings suggest that improving the quality of Madrasah Aliyah graduates requires a systemic and sustainable approach through strengthening madrasah governance and improving the quality of the learning process.
