Poverty Strategy

DCPS is committed to reducing financial hardship and the impact of poverty upon children.

We aim to achieve this in 2020/21 by;

• providing food bank vouchers and hampers of food
• making available good quality second hand school uniform
• organising ‘Flog it Friday’ where parents can buy good quality second hand items for a reasonable price.
• developing a family feast event
  (families will be invited to join staff and community partners to eat a meal, produced at low cost and will include a recipe card to encourage parent/carers to have a go and recreating this at home)
