Therefore, this research aims to explore innovations in the curriculum to foster the development of education and learning, keeping pace with the times and aligning with expectations and standards. A qualitative approach utilizing a literature review method with reflective analysis of sources such as scientific journals, books, research reports, policy documents, conference proceedings, online media and blogs, as well as theses and dissertations, was employed. The research findings revealed that firstly, curriculum innovation is an effort to create new solutions in education based on understanding existing problems. Secondly, important foundations need to be considered in the process of curriculum innovation. Lastly, overall, curriculum innovation is a crucial step towards enhancing the quality of education. By comprehending the existing issues, effectively adopting innovations, and considering relevant foundations and principles, it is hoped that a better and more responsive curriculum can be created to meet societal developments and educational needs.
