Authors' recommendations:
Study found that there is no evidence to suggest that sexual health services, based in or linked closely to schools, contribute to earlier or higher levels of sexual activity in young people, but there is some evidence of positive effects on teenage conceptions and, among boys, sexually transmitted infection rates.
