Abstract

This research aims to explore human resource management (HRM) at MI Muawwanah Plus Madin Jombang as a bilingual school that is in its early stages of development. The main focus of the study is on the recruitment process, teacher competency development, and performance evaluation of educators, with reference to education standards from the Cambridge perspective. The research also aims to examine how needs-based training for teachers and structured performance evaluations can be strategic steps in improving the quality of bilingual learning. The research approach used is qualitative with a case study method, involving direct observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis to understand the HRM practices at the school. This study emphasizes the importance of school management's support in creating a work environment that fosters innovation and collaboration among educators. It is hoped that the results of this research can illustrate how the implementation of the bilingual program at MI Muawwanah Plus Madin Jombang heavily relies on recruitment strategies that focus on English proficiency, pedagogical competencies, and cross-cultural knowledge, and can serve as a reference for MI Muawwanah Plus Madin Jombang and other educational institutions aiming to develop similar programs using the Cambridge-based approach.
