the implicit lessons, values, and social norms that students learn from the environment and culture of schools, beyond what is explicitly taught in the formal curriculum
What is a "hidden curriculum"?
A hidden curriculum refers to the lessons, values, and norms that students learn indirectly through their school experience, rather than through formal instruction. It includes the social expectations and behaviors that are taught outside of the official curriculum, such as how to interact with peers, respect authority, or follow rules. The hidden curriculum often shapes students' attitudes and beliefs about the world and their roles in society. It is not written down or explicitly taught, but it influences students' development and can have a lasting impact on their behavior and views.
