Experiencing food insecurity can be deeply damaging for children and negatively affects their achievement at school.,” says Will Baker, Senior Lecturer for the School of Education at University of Bristol.

This shows how the education system – from early years to secondary schools – is increasingly at the front line in responding to child poverty, food insecurity, and destitution, he adds.
