What would a successful Child Poverty Strategy look like?

I think a good child poverty plan would allow children to have the best start in life. It would ensure they have food every day at school with their friends, helping parents with the extra costs of schooling, and providing support with uniform costs and external trips so that all children can have the same experiences, regardless of their background.

It would also prioritize ensuring families can feed their children a varied and healthy diet, as most healthy food is either too expensive or spoils quickly. Additionally, it would educate adults on how to provide a healthy diet and support their children’s education. I’m not after a handout, just a little help in the right places.
