Poverty and place matter to children’s education. This book reports on and elaborates findings of the British Educational Research Association (BERA) Commission on Poverty and Policy Advocacy from the four UK jurisdictions of England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales and considers the implications for educational policy and practice. The book explores the different educational landscapes of poverty across the UK and highlights the importance of policy and place for educational opportunities and outcomes of young people living in poverty. The book presents research evidence from the four jurisdictions on the effects of poverty and policy on the education of young people and explores ways that schools and teachers in different parts of the UK try to mitigate the effects of poverty on young people.Less
