Education select committee response

In Local Trust’s response to the Education Select Committee Inquiry into left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds, we share learning and experience from the Big Local programme and findings from our research, ‘Left behind? Understanding communities on the ddge’. We emphasise the importance of community-led activity in driving educational attainment.

It was written with the support of Local Trust’s Policy and Advocacy Panel. If you would like to hear more about their work, or to join the Policy and Advocacy Panel, please contact Rob Day on Rob.Day@localtrust.org.uk
