The researcher employed a descriptive-analytical approach using two tools a questionnaire consisting of 73 items distributed across seven areas (introduction, artistic production, objectives, content, teaching methods, media and educational activities, and assessment). This was applied to a simple random sample representing 72% of the study population. The second tool was a curriculum foundation analysis card. After confirming the validity and reliability of the study tools, the following results were obtained: the assessment of the Arabic language curriculum for the ninth grade in Palestine was moderate, with no statistically significant differences between the response means of the sample individuals attributed to variables (gender, specialization, years of experience, and academic qualification). The curriculum included cognitive, philosophical, social, and psychological foundations to varying degrees, with cognitive aspects being the most frequent and psychological aspects the least. In light of the results, the study recommended a set of recommendations including: revising the curriculum introduction to guide teachers and learners to diverse learning sources, increasing focus on objectives that encourage students towards self-directed learning, developing content to aid learners in self-learning by adding illustrations and graphics, emphasizing active learning strategies such as drama, educational games, and cooperative learning, diversifying educational tools and activities to cater to individual differences among students, enriching students' knowledge with translated models of world literature and enhancing their ability to provide literary explanations of texts, incorporating respect for human dignity and emphasizing the Arab identity of Palestine as part of the Arab nation in the curriculum content, and fostering positive attitudes towards the Arabic language and culture, as well as emphasizing religious and national occasions.
