Abstract
As being maintained by District Transformation Program 3.0 (DTP 3.0), both skills and knowledge in curriculum aspects are being established by the purposes of School Improvement Specialist Coaches Plus (SISC+). Accordingly, this research endeavoured to recognize the level of competency of SISC+ in curriculum viewpoints. This study adopted a quantitative approach by employing the survey method. Before being examined by utilising SPSS version 23, the data were amassed through a set of questionnaires. Those questionnaires were disseminated to 128 SISC+ throughout the nation. For this research, descriptive statistics concerning frequency, mean score, standard deviation and percentage were employed. With the mean score of 4.23, sd=0.561, the results unveiled that SISC+ competency level in curriculum knowledge is at a high standard. From the curriculum viewpoints of the subject being taught, the outcomes of this research proved that SISC+ is accountable and proficient. Besides, the conclusions of this research afforded discernment into the SISC+'s capacity in training teachers in school and their implementation of quality Teaching and Learning (T&L). Hence, the authority needs to grant support and cooperation to ensure SISC+ remains to be competent in rendering quality coaching to teachers.

Among the aspirations of the SISC+ program is the responsibility of presenting teachers with guidance in curriculum, pedagogy and assessment to deliver high-quality teachers who can utilise their expertise in classroom pedagogy (District Transformation Program Management Guide, (DTP), 2017)
SISC+ refers to the people who are full-time professional developers, positioned in districts or on-site in schools[17]
Summary
Osman & Jaafar (2017) proposed that coaching and knowledge abilities among SISC+ concern contemporary Malaysia’s millenary educational remoulding [30]. The most advanced curriculum and pedagogical knowledge designate the high measure of professionalism among teachers (Sarabiah & Mahamod, 2016; Balang,N, & Mahamod 2019)[33,5,6]. SISC+ facilitates the teachers in the advancement of professionalism to encourage pedagogical capacities and curriculum quality (Knight 2019, Jake & Knight 2008)[17,19]. Teachers too must furnish themselves with relevant attitudes, behaviours, skills and knowledge as being recommended by the Planning and Policy Research Division (Hilmi & Jamil, 2017,Somasundram & Mahamod 2016)[15,32]. Et, al 2016, Ahmad & Mahamod 2015)[2,3] With this basis, the researchers intend to recognise the competency level of curriculum and Proficiencies In Curriculum Aspects Among School Improvement Specialist Coaches Plus (Sisc+)
