The implementation of education for older adults through elderly schools requires effective management so that the program can run well and produce a tangible impact. The application of such management can contribute to improving the independence of elderly learners within the school environment. This study aims to examine management functions, namely planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision, in the organization of learning activities for the elderly related to independence. This study employed a qualitative approach with a descriptive research design to provide an in-depth description of the implementation of elderly school management. The data collection techniques included observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The findings revealed that the management of Mutiara Senja Elderly School in Wates Village has been systematically implemented through the functions of planning, organizing, implementation, and supervision in a directed, participatory manner and oriented toward the needs of elderly learners. The implementation of this management has had a significantly positive impact on improving the independence of elderly learners, as indicated by increased self-confidence, social interaction skills, active participation, and independence in carrying out daily life activities. It is recommended that elderly schools continue to improve the quality of management functions through planning based on the needs of learners.
