The school curriculum has to be analyzed occasionally to create a scope to encompass new disciplines and areas to make the curriculum appropriate to the prevailing situation. The conventional curriculum sometimes becomes obsolete and desires substitute to offer scope for new areas to be included in the curriculum. The effectiveness of a curriculum depends on how lots the curriculum is fulfilling the social needs and the educational objectives. Our generation has the right to explore new disciplines and areas through the updated curriculum in education.
