out-of-school curriculum


Explanation:
Я бы перевел так. Автор пишет, что в школах программы были разные (школы были разные), а вот внешкольная программа была одинаковой. Тут у автора явная ирония (дворовая и вдруг программа), и я предлагаю такой же контраст: внешкольные занятия (типа продленка) и тут же танцы и проч.
