Implementasi Program Makan Bergizi Gratis di Madrasah Ibtidaiyah dan Implikasinya terhadap Konsentrasi Belajar serta Kehadiran Siswa

Abstract

Abstract : This study aims to examine the implementation of the Free Nutritious Meals Program (MBG) at MI Islahul Muta’allim in Mataram City, as well as its implications for students’ concentration and attendance. The study employs a descriptive qualitative approach, utilizing data collection techniques such as interviews, observations, and documentation. The study involved 22 informants, comprising the school principal, 2 teachers, 10 students, 8 parents, and 1 distribution officer. Data were analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model, which includes data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. The research results indicate that the MBG Program has been implemented routinely through a food distribution system integrated with the learning schedule and supported by periodic monitoring and evaluation. The findings show that this program has positive implications for the learning process, marked by increased concentration, participation, and motivation to learn, as well as reduced feelings of hunger and fatigue during learning sessions. Based on observations and interviews with teachers and parents, there is a trend toward increased student attendance following the program’s implementation. The program’s success is supported by the accuracy of distribution, food quality and safety, teacher involvement, parental support, and school supervision. However, limited menu variety and distribution delays remain challenges. This study proposes a madrasah based MBG implementation model that integrates aspects of nutrition, concentration, student attendance, and program management in Islamic elementary schools.

Abstrak : Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji implementasi Program Makan Bergizi Gratis (MBG) di MI Islahul Muta’allim, Kota Mataram, serta implikasinya terhadap konsentrasi belajar dan kehadiran siswa. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif deskriptif dengan teknik pengumpulan data berupa wawancara, observasi, dan dokumentasi. Informan penelitian berjumlah 22 orang yang terdiri atas kepala madrasah, 2 guru, 10 siswa, 8 orang tua, dan 1 petugas distribusi. Data dianalisis menggunakan model Miles dan Huberman yang meliputi reduksi data, penyajian data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian menunjukan Program MBG telah terlaksana secara rutin melalui  sistem distribusi makanan yang terintegrasi dengan jadwal pembelajaran serta didukung oleh pengawasan dan evaluasi berkala. Temuan penelitian menunjukan bahwa program ini berimplikasi positif terhadap proses pembelajaran, yang ditandai dengan meningkatnya konsentrasi, partisipasi, dan motivasi belajar, serta berkurangnya rasa lapar dan kelelahan selama pembelajaran berlangsung. Berdasarkan hasil observasi dan wawancara dengan guru serta orang tua, terdapat kecenderungan peningkatan kehadiran siswa setelah program diterapkan. Keberhasilan program didukung oleh ketepatan distribusi, kualitas dan keamanan pangan, keterlibatan guru, dukungan orang tua, serta pengawasan pihak madrasah. Meskupun demikian,keterbatasan variasi menu dan keterlambatan distribusi masi menjadi kendala. Penelitian ini menawarkan model implementasi MBG berbasis madrasah yang mengintegrasikan aspek gizi, konsentrasi, kehadiran siswa, dan tata kelola program di satuan pendidikan dasar Islam.
