Hi dear teachers!
I'd like to know the difference between 'curriculum' and 'syllabus'? Please help me out.

A syllabus contains the topics, points, etc, to be covered in a course, while a curriculum is broader- the courses offered in a school, university, etc, and encompasses the experiences and other aspects involved in turning the students into the type of person that their society desires.
