<![CDATA[Curriculum plays an important role in education, including English education. On the other side, motivation is also important for the students when learning English. During the implementation of the Merdeka curriculum, there were many obstacles that made students less motivated to learn. This research aims to figure out the correlation between students’ perceptions of the Merdeka curriculum and their motivation to learn English. The findings of this research revealed that the correlation coefficient between the two variables was 0.193.
