Kapanlagi.com - The Introduction to the School Environment (MPLS) is one of the important agendas at the beginning of the new academic year. To ensure that all activities run smoothly, schools need to form a committee with a clear division of tasks according to the needs of the implementation.
The MPLS committee structure generally involves the principal, teachers, educational staff, and the student council at the middle and high school levels. Each field has different responsibilities, ranging from scheduling activities, preparing equipment, documenting events, to ensuring the safety of new students during the MPLS period.
Here is an explanation of the functions of the MPLS committee, the common division of tasks used, and an example of the MPLS committee structure 2026 for elementary, middle, and high schools that can be used as a reference when drafting decisions or forming the school committee.
1. Understanding the Role of the MPLS Committee in Schools
The MPLS committee is a team formed by the school to plan and execute the entire series of School Environment Introduction Period for new students. The formation of the committee is done through a decision letter from the school principal before the new academic year begins.
The composition of the committee may vary at each level of education. At the elementary level, the committee is generally dominated by teachers because students still require full assistance. Meanwhile, at the junior high and high school levels, the student council (OSIS) usually gets involved along with the guiding teachers to make the school introduction process more familiar.
In addition to organizing the activities, the committee also ensures that the entire implementation of MPLS follows the regulations of the Ministry of Education. Therefore, every activity must be free from elements of hazing, violence, or non-educational tasks.
2. Division of Tasks within the MPLS Committee
Before the activities begin, the committee prepares a daily agenda that generally lasts for three to five days. The materials provided include an introduction to the school environment, vision and mission, rules and regulations, facilities, and activities that help new students adapt.
In addition to scheduling, the committee is responsible for preparing all technical needs, such as event supplies, participant identification, catering, and the venue. Security and health measures are also prepared to anticipate any participants who may need assistance during the activities.
Supervision is also an important aspect. The entire series of MPLS activities must remain within the corridor of school rules and government policies so that the main objective of the activity as a means of introducing the learning environment can be achieved effectively.
3. Important Positions Typically Found in the MPLS Committee
Although the composition of the committee in each school can be adjusted to individual needs, there are several core positions that are almost always available in the organization of MPLS.
These positions include the person in charge, usually held by the principal or vice principal in charge of student affairs, the chairperson, vice chairperson, secretary, treasurer, and various sections that support the smooth running of the activities.
Commonly formed sections include the Event Section, Equipment Section, Catering Section, Documentation Section, Security Section, Health or First Aid Section, and Public Relations (Humas) Section. Each has a different function to ensure that all activities can run in a coordinated manner.

7. Things to Consider When Organizing the MPLS Committee
The structure of the MPLS committee is determined by the school principal through a decree before the activities begin. The committee's composition needs to be adjusted to the conditions and needs of each school, but it must still include core positions to ensure effective implementation.
The duration of MPLS generally lasts for three to five working days at the beginning of the new academic year. During this period, the entire committee is responsible for ensuring that new students receive an introduction to the school environment safely, orderly, and in accordance with the objectives of the activities.
For junior high and high school levels, the involvement of OSIS management is highly recommended as it can assist in the adaptation process of new students. However, all activities must remain under the guidance of teachers and should not contain elements of violence, hazing, or tasks that are not educational according to the regulations of the Ministry of Education.
