The purpose of this study is to find out the implementation of the Smart Indonesia Program in improving access to education for poor families at State Elementary School 2 Parigi, Muna Regency, as well as to find out the supporting and inhibiting factors for the implementation of the program. The type of research used is descriptive research with a qualitative approach. The informants in this study were eight people who were selected through purposive sampling techniques. Data was obtained through in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies. The collected data is then analyzed qualitatively using an interactive analysis model that includes data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of research at Sekolah Elementary Negeri 2 Parigi, Parigi District, Muna Regency show that the implementation of the Smart Indonesia Program has not been running optimally. This is characterized by irregular disbursement of aid funds by beneficiary students. This condition occurred due to a lack of evaluation from the school. In addition, there are still uses of the Indonesia Smart Program assistance funds that are not in accordance with their intended purpose by students and parents, which should be used for school needs and student needs during their education.
