Living in poverty can lead to an increased likelihood of adverse effects on physical and mental wellbeing, in addition to poorer future life outcomes.
It’s more difficult for children living in poverty to access education at the same level emotionally and mentally as children who are not living in poverty.
Living Well Schools brings together resources and tools that can help in a variety of ways. These can include targeted pupil support or a whole school approach.

District-wide
Action For Sport is a national charity dedicated to ensuring that everyone has the opportunity to participate in sport. We are based in Yorkshire and are proud to support both our local communities and communities all around the UK. The charity is committed to protecting and preserving the environment through the recycling of sporting footwear, clothing and equipment. We ensure that we promote environmentalism throughout all of our projects. We do this through providing what is needed to take part in any sports to pupils that aren’t able to afford it, in a non-stigmatizing manner.
THE COST OF THE SCHOOL DAY TOOLKIT, UPDATED 2021
This toolkit is designed to get everyone talking about The Cost of the School Day. This resource helps all members of your school community - children and young people, teachers and school staff, parents and carers – to join the discussion and have input into making Cost of the School Day changes. Every school is unique, so this toolkit ensures that every school community can form a unique plan.
