Abstract
The study analyzes the policy of standardizing physical education learning infrastructure at the elementary level in 66 elementary schools throughout Langsa City. The research aims to explore, encounter, and provide policy recommendations for infrastructure standardization to support active learning. The implication is that if every elementary school has the appropriate infrastructure, it will impact the quality of learning. The approach uses a qualitative policy research design. The research subjects are sixty-six elementary school principals, sixty-six physical education teachers, one head of department, and government representatives. The Collecting data are observation, documentation, interviews, and literature studies. Data analysis used data collection, data reduction, data display, conclusion drawing, and data validity by triangulation to find the validity of research data. The results of the research findings from 66 elementary schools in Langsa City showed only 5 schools that meet the standard, 61 schools are not eligible, and the category is not suitable for infrastructure in terms of minimum 4 aspects, namely the width of infrastructure field, building area, classrooms, and installations according to Permendiknas No 24 of 2007 about the standard of learning infrastructure at the elementary level. Of the four aspects, a minimum of 61 schools are located in a narrow area it is not feasible to build standardized classrooms and sports infrastructure, at least a multi-purpose field that can play badminton, volleyball, and mini soccer fields to support elementary school students learning activities. In contrast, 5 schools meet the minimum standards and are fair. The impact of the unsuitable learning infrastructure for physical education activities in 61 elementary schools was modified, so students were ineffective at learning. The level of elementary learning is fundamental for motor skills, so physical education learning is essential that supported by standard
