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)
