WHAT IS CO-CURRICULUM?

Co-curricular refers to activities, programs, and


learning experiences that complement or
suplement, in some way, what students are learning
in school—i.e., experiences that are connected to or
mirror the academic curriculum. 

Co-curricular activities are typically, but not always,


in the form of non-formal learning or defined by
their separation from academic courses.

The activities can be implemented either inside


or outside the classroom..
