Summary. Transformational school leadership in rural Indonesian early childhood education institutions can sustain learning innovation despite financial constraints. The study identifies four key leadership practices: fostering psychological safety and collaborative communication to reduce resistance to change, implementing peer coaching to reduce burnout, using workload analysis and non-financial recognition to retain teachers, and shifting technology use toward authentic child-centered learning. These integrated practices enable sustainable innovation in resource-constrained settings.
