Beyond the academic - extracurricular activities, soft skills, networks, and social mobility

See 'Attachments' for full description. The Social Mobility Commission is inviting proposals for research to understand how inequalities in extracurricular participation, networks, and support for building soft skills impact on social mobility. By soft skills, we mean skills such as persistence or self-control as well as employability skills, such as teamwork or interview skills. This research forms part of the Social Mobility Commission's role to produce relevant research that provides new data and insights on social mobility in the UK.
