A subdomain is the section of the web address which is before a domain name and you have probably seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. For example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions in several languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org and so on. The main benefit of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate site and its own records, so you're able to even host it on another server. The practical use is that you could have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for pupils in addition to the main school website. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it's going to be more safe to have the websites separate from each other.
