Also, here's a summary of a detailed report entitled Arts Education in Secondary Schools: Effects and Effectiveness, published by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER).

The study found that "...there was no sound evidence to support the claim that the arts boost general academic performance...".
Yikes.
Yikes.
