Original: Make extra-curricular activities compulsory for young people, adventurer says https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/ranulph
Veteran British adventurer Ranulph Fiennes has called for extra-curricular activities to be made compulsory for young people. Writing in connection with his work with youth organisations, he argues that structured challenges such as outdoor pursuits build resilience and character, and he is urging schools and policymakers to guarantee every young person access to such activities.
Why now: Fiennes is a well-known public figure making a direct policy proposal on youth education that resonates with ongoing debates about children's resilience and screen time.
