Two separate letters to the Prime Minister, co-ordinated by Fair Education Alliance and the National Children’s Bureau, have been signed by over 240 leaders calling for proper investment.
Experts are calling for the Government to set out a new and ambitious vision of childhood and education to support children, young people and their families to recover from the impact of Covid-19, with 'children at the heart' of the plans.
The NCB letter to Boris Johnson has been signed by over 140 organisations including charities, unions, and community organisations, while a similar letter co-ordinated by the Fair Education Alliance has been signed by over 100 educationalists, young people, businesses, and charities.
