This study aims to analyse the data-driven education quality improvement planning at SMA Negeri 1 Blora. Data-based planning enhances education quality through structured steps: identification, reflection, and improvement. This research uses a descriptive qualitative approach, with data collection techniques through observation, interviews, and documentation. The results show that the planning process at SMA Negeri 1 Blora begins with data collection through educational reports and evaluations of previous programs, followed by identifying issues by each relevant department. Reflection is conducted by analysing the data to identify root causes and formulate priority improvements. Improvement programs are then developed in the Annual Work Plan (RKT) and School Activity and Budget Plan (RKAS). Program implementation involves the entire school community, and evaluations are conducted regularly to ensure the success and relevance of the implemented programs. The results of the assessments are used for continuous improvement in budget and implementation strategies. This study concludes that structured data-based planning can enhance the quality of education and positively impact the educational practices at SMA Negeri 1 Blora.
