Information System Design and Implementation Web Based New Student Admissions (PPDB) Using the Waterfall Method - Study Early Childhood Kindergarten Dharma Wanita Kebur Village

Sep 5, 2026

Information technology growth increasingly supports education through digital systems, especially for Admission of New Students (PPDB) as the first service stage to the public. At PAUD TK Dharma Wanita Kebur Village, PPDB is still handled conventionally, requiring parents to visit the school and causing inefficiencies in time, effort, and data management. The study designs and develops a web-based PPDB information system using the Waterfall method to improve accuracy, speed, convenience, and structured data handling.

Corresponding authors: | ABSTRACT
Information technology continues to grow in response to societal needs, including the education sector which increasingly depends on digital systems. One of the essential processes in school administration is the Admission of New Students (PPDB), which serves as the first stage of school services to the public. At PAUD TK Dharma Wanita Kebur Village, the PPDB process is still conducted conventionally, requiring parents or guardians to come directly to the school, resulting in inefficiencies in time, effort, and data management. This study develops a web-based PPDB information system as a solution to improve the accuracy, speed, and convenience of the admission process. The Waterfall method is used in system development, consisting of sequential stages including requirements analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance. Data collection was conducted through literature studies and analysis of existing registration procedures. The designed system includes features such as user login, online registration, prospective student data input, validation, and automated registration processing. The final result is a web-based PPDB system that is expected to make the student admission process more efficient, structured, and accessible for both schools and prospective students, while supporting better data management in educational institutions.

Introduction
The development of technology is currently developing very rapidly over time so the need for fast and efficient information is mandatory. With the rapid development of technology, it is possible for a technological system to take part in a process. One of the most widely used forms of information technology for sharing information is the website which is a method to display information on the internet, either in the form of text, images, sounds, or interactive videos and has the advantage of linking one document with another document that can be accessed through a browser. New Student Admissions (PPDB) is one of the processes in educational institutions such as schools that are useful for screening prospective students who are selected according to the criteria determined by the school to become their students. In general, the

Because the admission of new students is carried out conventionally, the conventional PPDB system that has been implemented for many years has the characteristic of a face-to-face approach [1] . This process involves a series of manual stages, starting from taking forms, filling out data, verifying files, to announcing the selection results. Although the system has been proven to work, various obstacles such as long queues, file stacking, manual recording errors, and limited service time are stil

FAQs

Why does PAUD TK Dharma Wanita Kebur Village need a web-based PPDB system?

The current conventional process requires parents to come directly to the school, leading to long queues, time and effort inefficiency, and less effective data management.

What development approach is used to build the PPDB system?

The system is developed using the Waterfall method with sequential stages: requirements analysis, design, implementation, testing, and maintenance.

What features are included in the designed web-based PPDB system?

The system includes user login, online registration, prospective student data input, validation, and automated registration processing.
