Poverty - a Global Issue
No poverty is the first UN goal
My research has shown that there are several causes of poverty, and that poverty can have huge effects on a child's health and education.

Poverty and Education
Impact
Children living in homes facing poverty can also face issues when it comes to their education. Poverty does have a correlation with education, and unfortunately this correlation does not have positive outcomes.

Poverty and Mental Health
Social Discrimination
Poverty can cause extremely poor mental health due to the issues that surround it, such as social stigmas and discrimination.
Being behind peers
Stigma and Shame

Poverty and Physical Health
Food insecurity
Over 6000 people die in Wales every year due to poverty. That's around 16 people per day. This can arise from physical issues.
Further health issues
Respiratory problems
Poor physical and mental health can affect education for a number of reasons. Physical health issues such as vitamin deficiency and malnutrition can cause fatigue and ill health, which then can lead to absence in school because the children are unwell. If the children do not attend school for a prolonged period of time, their poor attendance can obviously cause them to be behind their peers in school, which if goes on for a long time, can immensely affect educational progress and attainment. Poor mental health derived from poverty itself, or the stigma surrounding it for example, can lead to feelings of shame and embarassment. This can then limit social participation, including education. Students may be embarrassed of the shame and stigma surrounding their home situations, therefore may not attend school due to this. On the other hand, students who have come from deprived backgrounds may appreciate their education more, so they can maintain a good education and prevent themselves living in poverty later on in life.
