Reviewing Student Administration, From Concept to Challenges in Schools

Student administration plays an important role in managing student data and activities to ensure an orderly, effective and efficient learning process. Effective management plays a crucial role in enhancing the quality of education and boosting student performance. This research seeks to explore comprehensively the concepts and challenges related to student administration in the context of improving the overall quality and effectiveness of educational institutions. The method employed in this study is library research, which involves gathering data from written sources including books, scholarly journals, articles, and relevant research publications. The results showed that student administration includes data management, coaching, and developing student potential in an integrated manner with the role of teachers and curriculum. Teachers play a crucial role in data collection, coaching, and student evaluation. However, challenges are still found, such as limited human resources, weak coordination, and low technological literacy. The main contribution of this research is to present a conceptual analysis of the practical challenges of student administration that have received less attention in normative studies. The findings are expected to be a reflective reference for practitioners and education policy makers in building an adaptive administration system that supports the optimal development of students.
