This study examines the influence of indoor and outdoor learning on parents’ decisions to enroll their children in SD Muhammadiyah Bangil. A quantitative approach with an ex post facto causal-explanatory design was employed. The sample consisted of 90 prospective parents for the 2026/2027 academic year selected through simple random sampling. Data were collected using a validated and reliable questionnaire and analyzed through simple and multiple linear regression using SPSS. The results indicate that outdoor learning has a positive and significant effect on parents’ decisions (p = 0.003; β = 0.472), whereas indoor learning has no significant effect (p = 0.947; β = -0.005). Simultaneously, both variables significantly influence parents’ decisions (p = 0.002), although their explanatory power remains limited (R² = 13.4%). The findings highlight outdoor learning as the dominant factor, providing authentic learning experiences and strengthening the school’s distinctive educational identity, thereby enhancing its attractiveness to prospective parents.
