Despite being one of the wealthiest nations in the world, teachers across Scotland continue to see the devastating impact of poverty every day in their classrooms.
As Challenge Poverty Week approaches, join the EIS for an empowering event that brings members together to strengthen our collective voice and highlight the crucial role of education in challenging poverty in Scotland.
The event will highlight some of the inspiring anti-poverty initiatives that EIS PACTivists are leading in their schools and communities.
It will also be a space to connect, share ideas, and consider how, as a union and wider teaching profession, we can continue to collectively challenge poverty in Scotland—not only during Challenge Poverty Week, but every day.
