The effect of providing additional food for students on improving the quality of education in Atuka Village, Mimika District
No full textPurpose: This study aims to analyze the impact of the Supplementary Feeding Program (PMT) on education quality in Kampung Atuka, Mimika Regency. The research focuses on academic achievement, attendance rates, and dropout rates, considering mediating factors such as nutritional status and moderating factors such as parental support and learning environment.
Research methodology: The research employs a quantitative approach with descriptive statistical analysis, Spearman correlation, multiple linear regression, as well as mediation and moderation tests. Additionally, qualitative analysis was conducted through interviews with students, teachers, and parents.
Results: The findings indicate that PMT does not have a direct significant effect on academic performance and student attendance but contributes to improving nutritional status, which positively correlates with academic achievement. The study also reveals that the learning environment and parental support do not significantly moderate the relationship between PMT and education quality. Although students and teachers reported benefits in terms of increased energy and focus, external factors such as home eating habits and the variety of supplementary food remain obstacles to the program’s effectiveness.
Conclusions: This research concludes that the effectiveness of PMT as a strategy for improving education quality is optimized when combined with nutritional education programs, parental involvement, and more comprehensive education policies.
Recommendation: Recommendations are provided for local governments, education offices, and schools to enhance PMT implementation to achieve a more significant impact on education quality in remote areas
