Abstract

The objective of this study was to explore English teachers' perspectives on the implementation of Kurikulum Merdeka at SMA Negeri 1 Sirah Pulau Padang, Kabupaten OKI. This curriculum was introduced by the Indonesian government in response to the prolonged learning crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. It aims to offer more flexible, student-centered learning and address diverse student needs through differentiated instruction and independent learning. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with an exploratory case study design, this study got involved four teachers selected through a purposive sampling technique. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed three main themes: (1) teachers' understanding of the curriculum, (2) the implementation of the curriculum in classroom practices, and (3) the impact of the curriculum on teaching and learning activities. The results showed that the teachers demonstrated varying but generally positive understandings of Kurikulum Merdeka, emphasizing differentiated learning, student-centered approaches, flexibility in planning, and the integration of digital tools. Next, the curriculum also significantly impacted teaching and learning activities by encouraging teachers to adopt more flexible, student-centered, and differentiated approaches.
