 Abstract

This study examines teachers’ acceptance of KesSekolah, a school health information system developed to support the School Health Units (UKS) program in junior high schools in Serang City. The system’s acceptance was measured using User Acceptance Testing (UAT), which included two evaluation categories: acceptance of learning media and acceptance of learning materials. Each category contained structured statements designed to assess specific user needs. The findings show that the system was well accepted, with high scores for usability, reliability, and effectiveness. The highest score was for the system’s usefulness in supporting the learning process (98.34%), followed by the quality of learning materials (95.82%) and their relevance to educational needs (91.98%). The system's reliability received a score of 87.9%, showing it is stable for regular use. In addition, the interface design (90.84%) and usability (89.48%) were rated positively, indicating an easy and user-friendly experience. Overall, the results suggest that KesSekolah effectively supports health education and school health program management, meeting user expectations.
