Teacher tips on helping disadvantaged pupils | Teacher Support | BBC Teach

This short film features ideas on how to help pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds. St Paul's CE Primary School in Stoke-on-Trent is a surrounded by areas of high deprivation. The school hands out basic food and hygiene packages to families in need. Staff also wash clothes on site for pupils who don’t have access to a washing machine. Head Teacher, Nicola Finney says: “Never be afraid to ask the question - is everything okay? I see our school as a family, as a community. And if somebody in that family needs some support then we're going to support that family member. We're not going to turn our back on them.” Barriers to success aren’t just limited to a lack of food or clothing. Sarah Boyle, who teaches English at Falinge Park High School in Rochdale says: “We have a lot of young people who come to our school who have minimal understanding of English perhaps even minimal understanding of what a school day looks like and how a school day normally runs.” She runs a school debating team to help give students more confidence with their language skills.
