Thanks to our Visiting Fellow Jonny Uttley for leading on this vital work, and to the many school leaders across the country who have been taking part in our discussions over the last year and provided valuable insight.

Really interesting findings here. I found the discussion of the London Challenge particularly relevant to our recent Opportunity Index research The Sutton Trust which found the majority of the top 50 constituencies for opportunity are in London: suttontrust.com/our-research/t…

Great to see new Institute for Fiscal Studies report demonstrating the long-term health benefits of Sure Start centres. At Impact on Urban Health we’re supporting Centre for Young Lives to undertake research and modelling to make the case for more investment into place-based support for children and families.

Extremely interesting report which overlaps with our The Sutton Trust Opportunity Index. Centre for Young Lives finds similarly that the most inclusive education is currently provided in London. 👇

Scrapping the cruel and unfair two child limit immediately lifts children out of poverty. Everyone knows this. “Rebadged” press releases don’t pay the bills. Decisions should be based on boosting life chances and reducing barriers to success, not “political capital”.

The UK is among the worst nations in Europe for child poverty. In the UK, 11% of 15-year-olds reported they had skipped a meal in 2022 because there wasn't enough money to buy food. In the Netherlands and Finland, this number was 3%.
