Stand Up to Child Poverty Guidance Refresher - October 2024
Recent economic shocks, the socio-economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ongoing cost of living crisis have conspired to cause deepening levels of poverty and inequality across Scotland and the wider UK. Recognising that schools continue to battle the impacts of poverty on children and young people day and daily, the EIS will publish fresh anti-poverty guidance for the classroom ahead of Challenge Poverty Week 2024 on Tuesday the 1st of October, building extensively upon our very widely used 2015 ‘Face Up to Poverty’ publication.
Please get in touch directly with Eireann McAuley emcauley@eis.org.uk about the EIS PACT Programme and Child Poverty Guidance.
