Abstract

The objective of the present study is to investigate the role of ‘Access Program’ in enhancing the achievement levels of EFL students in Morocco. The study is an experimental one consisting essentially of two groups: experimental and control groups. The experimental group received the treatment of engaging students in the different ‘Access Program’ activities. The control group was made up of students of the same level as the experimental group, but lacking the activities of the ‘Access Program’. When the program was over, the two groups underwent the same test. The findings showed that the ‘Access Program’ students outperformed the ‘Non-Access’ students in different language skills. The paper ends up with a conclusion along with some practical recommendations for practitioners in the field to incorporate the use of these extracurricular activities.
