Co-Curricular and Extracurricular Activities
Almawakeb International School in Istanbul offers its students the opportunity to enhance their academic curriculum with co-curricular and extracurricular activities every year. Students can even complete entire academic stages by attending non-curricular classes that teach these additional programs.
Co-curricular and extracurricular programs are any non-curricular activity outside the academic framework, such as arts, robotics, crafts, sports and games, and other activities that develop students' abilities and skills.
Although co-curricular and extracurricular courses are not mandatory, they complement the curriculum and form an important part of its strategy because they provide students with skills that can be applied in most workplaces, including collaboration or critical thinking skills.
Extracurricular activities are also very beneficial for students when applying to some international universities that prefer students who have developed their leadership skills and become more engaged in the community, which increases students' chances of enrolling in the best Turkish international universities.
