Popis: This contribution examines whether long-term utilization of extended education offerings in the German-speaking part of Switzerland has a positive effect on the development of school achievement (mathematics and reading achievement) and whether effects of family background on the development of school achievement can be reduced. For the analyses, multilevel latent growth curve models were calculated. When controlling for socioeconomic status and language spoken in the home, long-term utilization of extended education offerings had no effect on the development of school achievement. Further, there were no compensatory effects of long-term utilization of extended education offerings on the development of school achievement. This was the case for both students with German as a second language and students with low socioeconomic status.
