In addition, from the input aspect, the procurement of books received a very good response, which was 96.40%. However, less than 43% of respondents considered that the guidance provided to teachers was in the poor category and the process aspect received a poor response from respondents, which was less than 49%. A total of 69.37% of respondents gave a good response in the product aspect category. Implementation of the prototype curriculum needs to pay attention to the readiness and quality of teachers, schools, and other aspects. In addition, the class level in the prototype curriculum can be replaced with the term "phase" because learning outcomes are at the phase level and not at the class level. The expert trainers should be presented directly to schools and improvements in process aspects can be made by defining a clear role in the policy.
