Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation of the School Field Introduction Program (PLP) in improving student competencies at MI Al Ukhuwah Batam. The method used is a qualitative descriptive approach through observation, participation, and documentation during the PLP activities. The results show that the PLP program provides real experience for students in understanding the learning process, school administration, and teacher roles. Students are also involved in teaching assistance, administrative tasks, and school activities. However, there are some obstacles such as time management and limited experience in classroom management. Overall, the PLP program can enhance students’ competencies, especially in pedagogical, social, and professional aspects.
