This study aims to analyze the governance of education for children of Indonesian migrant workers at the Sekolah Indonesia Johor Bahru (SIJB), Malaysia. The research focuses on three core aspects: educational planning, implementation, and supervision. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study method, data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observations, and document analysis involving the principal, teachers, the Indonesian Consulate (KJRI), students, school committee, and parents. The findings reveal that educational planning at SIJB is adaptively conducted by considering students’ social and immigration contexts. Strategies include integration of the national curriculum, PANDAWA (Student Data and Document Services), and student adaptation policies. Implementation emphasizes character and national identity development through collaborative programs such as the Pancasila Student Profile Project (P5), Problem-Based Learning (PBL), SABUGA, Motivation Camp, and cultural preservation via Beksa Buana and the Wonderful Nusantara Festival. Supervision is carried out through both formal and informal evaluations. SIJB’s educational governance demonstrates good governance principles and offers a model for equitable and sustainable transnational education policies.
