This report from UK think tank the Education Policy Institute examines the longer-term outcomes of students who participate in extra-curricular activities.

A new report by the Education Policy Institute (EPI) examines which students are accessing extra-curricular activities during secondary school and the longer-term outcomes of students who do participate.
