Co-curricular Activities

Activities which complement but are not part of the conventional academic
curriculum. It means that Co-curricular activities are those activities which fall
outside the regular academic curriculum yet they are a part of schooling or
collegiate life. Most of the educational organizations in various different parts
of the world facilitate these 4 activities for school and college students. Faculty
is mostly involved in organizing and directing these activities in schools while
it may be independent from faculty in universities or colleges. Co-curricular
activities exist at all levels of education, from primary, secondary-higher
secondary school, college and university education. These activities are
compulsory in some institutions while in other it‟s voluntary. Where these are
compulsory all students must participate them alongside the standard study
curriculum. At higher levels of education student participations generally
include academic points in lieu of the efforts put by a student in a particular
activity. These are held outside standard curriculum hours and the activities
partaken depend on the nature of the institute and occasion. Today these
activities have become more profound than ever before. Most of the institutes
highlight them as a crucial advertising factor in their prospectus or
advertisements in order to attract parent-students attention. Though not all of
these activities may pursue with great enthusiasm these are however popular
and leave a lifelong lasting experience for most. These activities are not
examined in the same way that the academic curriculum is, and because most of
them take place outside lessons, such activities have less status in education
than the main curriculum. However, they are often held to be very important to
the wider education of young men and women.
