What are constitutional or institutional functions?

A constitutional or institutional function is like the special job each person has in a game, everyone knows what they need to do so the whole game works well.

Imagine you and your friends are playing a big, fun game called “School.” In this game, there are different people with special jobs. For example, the teacher helps explain things, the principal makes sure the rules are followed, and the students learn new stuff every day. These special jobs are like constitutional or institutional functions, they’re the roles that help keep everything running smoothly.

Think of it like being on a soccer team. The goalkeeper has one job: to stop the ball from going into the net. The striker has another job: to score goals. Each person’s role is important for the whole team to win. In “School,” the teacher, principal, and students each have their own functions, just like players on a soccer team.

If everyone did the same job, the game wouldn’t be as fun, and school might get a little messy!
