Investigating Association Between Participation in Co-curricular Activities and Student’s Academic Output at Secondary Level

Abstract

Educational experiences are necessary for ensuring student’s growth, skill development, and a successful life. The educational experiences are governed by the student’s learning outcomes. Co-curricular activities also form a significant part of student’s life and are found to play a vital role in the academic as well as personal growth and development of children. The present research studied the role of co-curricular activities in student’s learning outcomes at secondary level. The results support association between both variables as assessed by Murphy’s student survey questionnaire. Findings could help to provide evidence for importance of curricular activities to the policy makers so it can be made a part of student’s learning outcomes.
