Abstract
In improving the quality of education, policies and implementation are
needed at the education unit level by preparing the school ecosystem to improve
the quality of learning. Improving the quality of learning can run well with various
strategic efforts such as developing teacher competencies, providing adequate
facilities and infrastructure, implementing a relevant curriculum, and support
from all parties, including parents and the community. This study aims to
describe the implementation of the Independent Curriculum at SD Negeri 4
Amurang in the 2024/2025 Academic Year, and to identify supporting and
inhibiting factors in its implementation. The Independent Curriculum is an
education policy issued by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and
Technology, which emphasizes student-centered learning, differentiated
learning, and character building. This study uses a qualitative approach with a
case study method. The research subjects consisted of the principal, class
teachers, and representatives of students and parents. Data collection
techniques were carried out through interviews, observations, and
documentation. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the
Independent Curriculum at SD Negeri 4 Amurang has been carried out in
accordance with the established guidelines, although there are still some
challenges. Teachers have begun implementing differentiated learning and the
Pancasila Student Profile strengthening project, but further training is still
needed to improve understanding and skills in designing appropriate learning.
Supporting factors in this implementation include support from the principal,
availability of facilities and infrastructure, and parental support. Meanwhile,
the main obstacles faced are limited time and teacher workload, limited human
resources in this case pre-retirement teachers to technology, and limited
digital media. This study concludes that the successful implementation of the
Merdeka Curriculum requires strong collaboration from all parties in the
school, continuous improvement of teacher competency, and support from the
government and community.
