This study aims to describe the management planning of the learning community in SMP Negeri 54 Batam City in order to improve teacher competence and learning quality. The research background is based on the importance of learning communities as a forum for collaboration, reflection, and professional development of educators in the era of Freedom of Learning. The research uses a qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, documentation studies, and observations. The research informants included school principals, vice principals for curriculum, heads and members of the learning community, teachers, and student representatives. The results of the study show that the management planning of the learning community at SMP Negeri 54 Batam City includes four main stages: (1) coordination meetings to equalize perceptions, form vision-missions, and prepare work programs; (2) the formation of a learning community team with a clear division of tasks; (3) internal and external socialization to increase participation and support; and (4) the provision of supporting facilities and infrastructure such as meeting rooms, projectors, internet connections, and collaborative media. The obstacles faced include the limitations of modern facilities such as Smart TVs, exclusive special rooms, and documentation tools. The conclusion of the study shows that systematic and participatory learning community management planning is able to encourage a culture of continuous learning among teachers, although there is still a need to improve facilities and strengthen socialization strategies. The results of this research are expected to be a reference for other schools in developing an effective learning community and have a positive impact on the quality of learning.
