Kurikulum Merdeka

State Standards Initiative

Kurikulum Merdeka, or the Independent Curriculum, is Indonesia's national school curriculum introduced by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology from 2022, initially as an option for schools recovering from pandemic-related learning loss before a wider rollout. It emphasizes simplified content focused on essential material, more flexible and project-based learning to build character through the Pancasila Student Profile, and greater autonomy for teachers and schools, replacing the 2013 Curriculum (Kurikulum 2013) as the national standard.
