INTRODUCTION
Indonesia is a country that has rich culture and diversity.
Being a plural and multicultural country is a positive thing (Arfa, 2014.
Aspinall & Mietzner, 2019.
Miichi & Kayane, 2020.

, but on the one hand.
Indonesia has the potential for various conflicts to arise (Arfa, 2014.
Miichi & Kayane, 2020.
New Media in the Muslim World.
Second Edition: The Emerging Public Sphere - Dale F.

Therefore, every Indonesian citizen is obliged to have a commitment to maintaining balance and the process of learning and practicing attitudes and willingness to accept differences such as culture, ethnicity, gender, language and religion.
In order to realize this, religious moderation is a solution to create harmony and peace in living a religious life, thereby avoiding the trap of extremism, intolerance and acts of violence.
Moderation comes from the word moderate.
The word moderate in Arabic means Wasathiyah, has a meaning that cannot be separated from two key words, namely balanced .
, and fair .

People who are moderate in religion are not permitted to have extreme or radical views by looking at only one side of the view, but must look for a middle point, because that is the basis for religious communities in realizing harmony and comfort in relationships.
People who practice moderation or practice it are usually called moderates, namely people who always try to develop reasonable attitudes, and not extreme ones.
Always position yourself in the middle of various excessive or contradictory attitudes so that only one attitude will dominate in the person's mind.
Abdurrahman Wahid recommends that moderation always encourages building social justice or what is usually referred to as alMaslahah al-Ammah.
Moderation is used as a basis for providing public policy because it is the essence of religion in the public sphere and the moral responsibility of leaders to interpret the real life of society.
In fact, in Lampung Province there is an Islamic village precisely in Natar District.
South Lampung Regency.
The village contains a special Muslim Apart from that, still in Lampung Province, more specifically in Karang Sari Village.
Jati Agung District.
South Lampung Regency, there are also villages that have rules, namely no smoking and mandatory wearing of the headscarf (Kampung Khilafatul Muslimi.
These various facts show that religious moderation is not yet ingrained in society.
This is also supported by the Alvara Research Survey which states that the religious moderation index score in Indonesia is in the range of 89.
Based on these figures.
Lampung Province is categorized at alert level.
Viewed from a national scale, namely by looking at survey results in other provinces, this is a yellow light for the Indonesian government and also all components of the nation (Absor et al.
, 2022.
Rimanto et al.
, 2022.
Ruslan et al.
, 2.
There are 8 provinces in the alert category, 16 provinces in the alert category and 10 provinces in the safe category.
There are three provinces in the alert category in Sumatra, 2 in Kalimantan, 2 in Sulawesi and 1 in Java(Islam et al.
, 2022.
Musmuallim et al.
, 2021.
Pelletier, 2020.
Siswayanti et al.

The eight provinces include I Aceh.
Jambi.
Sumatra.
DKI Jakarta.
West Kalimantan.
South Kalimantan.
Central Sulawesi and Southeast Sulawesi.
Lampung is one of the provinces that is in the alert category.
In connection with the various phenomena that are occurring, it is certainly very worrying if society does not move quickly to deal with radicalism which continues to grow.
This big phenomenon gives a picture like an iceberg, a problem that is already big but only slightly visible on the surface and certainly needs serious attention.
That is why religious moderation education is needed from an early age to build national understanding and Religious moderation must be an inseparable part of character education for Some researchers asserted that understanding of religious moderation must be injected into learning for young children (Azizah et al.
, 2022.
Khobir et al.
, 2023.
Septiana et , 2021.
Very et al.
, 2.
This can be integrated through learning materials and learning The aim is to deepen children's character education.
This is where it is necessary to strengthen religious moderation in synergy against radicalism and terrorism to protect the Republic of Indonesia.
And as a basic preventive effort, namely by exploring and creating a school curriculum based on religious moderation.
A religious character based on religious moderation is needed as the initial foundation for children to develop a nationalist religious character.
The character that is instilled in the nation's next generation will determine the direction in which the nation will lead.
So, with these considerations in mind, the integration of religious moderation in the curriculum is This is in line with the opinion of Gallen Saylor and William N.
Alexander who International Journal of Community Engagement Payungi Vol.

2 November 2023 state that the curriculum is not only teaching materials/materials, but includes various aspects involved in learning activities, namely the learning place .
, yard, and the child's environment.
Apart from that, all forms of experience obtained by children in learning activities at school/teachers to achieve certain goals are also categorized as curriculum.
The religious moderation curriculum in question must be implemented from an early age in formal and non-formal institutions.
One form of non-formal religious institution is TPQ (Alquran Education Par.
Where the teaching discusses more religious aspects and character education.
TPQ is equivalent to RA and kindergarten (TK).
The curriculum used at this level of learning must emphasize providing the basics of reading the Al-Quran.
Apart from that, in order to support children's readiness to take higher levels of secondary education, the curriculum that is prepared must be able to support children's spiritual growth and development.
Maximizing various ideas, thoughts and thoughts in managing the mosque's TPQ will be a special attraction for the community.
This is very necessary to do in order to realize a TPQ that is able to accommodate the needs of children's growth and character development.
Based on all of this, the author took the initiative to assist in the preparation of a curriculum based on religious moderation at the TPQ Nurul Iman Mosque.

With the Al-Qur'an Education Park activities in the Tejo Agung sub-district, it becomes an asset for the surrounding community so that children in the area can take non-formal religious education well, and this can lead to positive changes in values that are sustainable.
This change can be implemented by increasing the capacity of human resources in formulating the learning curriculum so that what is formulated can be achieved and is Human resources or TPQ teachers are the actors in the development of the TPQ curriculum based on religious moderation, accompanied by the parties involved.
