Certain curricula have been in place in Indonesia since 1947. A new curriculum known as the Liberating Curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka) was introduced in 2021. With the introduction of the Liberating Curriculum for all educational units, Indonesia's educational philosophy is currently undergoing significant changes. Many intricate adjustments were made to the way learning was implemented and learning resources were prepared throughout the first two years of the Liberating Curriculum's adoption. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe how the Liberating Curriculum is implemented in English instruction in compliance with standards and regulations. It also intends to explain the difficulties that English teachers encounter when implementing the Liberating Curriculum in English instruction at Christian Senior High School. The researchers employed descriptive techniques. On the other hand, interviewing and observation are the methods used to gather data. The following are the study's findings: First, Christian Senior High School's adoption of the Liberating Curriculum for English instruction Beginning with preparing English instructors to create learning resources and take part in their own training, significant teacher training, webinars, and school-sponsored seminars, Atambua has been executed effectively. English teachers conduct their teaching and learning process after preparing for their students' learning. Formal learning is a component of the Liberating Curriculum's English teaching methodology. Additionally, as part of the Pancasila Student Profile Strengthening Project (P5), students participate in a few activities. Secondly, a lack of technology-based application proficiency, a lack of infrastructure and facilities at the school to support instruction, a lack of student interest and motivation in learning English lessons, and a lack of knowledge among English teachers regarding the Liberating Curriculum's implementation are some of the challenges facing English teachers in implementing the curriculum.
