This study aims to analyze curriculum administration management and the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum at Madrasah Aliyah Al-Fatah Palembang. This research employed a qualitative approach using interviews, observations, and documentation techniques.

Curriculum administration planning is conducted through the development of simple and contextual teaching modules, learning implementation emphasizes project-based and contextual approaches, and evaluation is carried out holistically through formative assessments and portfolios. However, several challenges remain, particularly related to teachers’ readiness and varying levels of understanding of the Merdeka Curriculum concept. Therefore, institutional support through continuous professional development and strengthened teacher collaboration is essential to optimize the implementation of the Merdeka Curriculum.
