Sam Whewall and Kalyan Kumar were both part of the the team who co-authored a report for the Social Mobility Commission.
‘An Unequal Playing Field‘ delves into extra-curricular activities and highlights disparities in children’s participation rates depending on their social background. It includes recommendations made by the Social Mobility Commission for government, schools and voluntary organisations, including the introduction of a national extra-curricular bursary scheme for disadvantaged families.
Sam wrote about the report in an article for the blog Transforming Society titled ‘Summer holidays and the geography of extra-curricular activities’ here.
The study has also been covered in a variety of media outlets, including The Guardian, Classic Fm and Phys.org. You can see the full report on the Gov.uk website here
