Back in 2012, visitors and Club Members alike were hugely impressed by the presentation by Adele Eastman –\u00a0Senior Policy Specialist at the Centre for Social Justice.\u00a0 She led the organisation’s\u00a0Educational Exclusion work.<\/p>\n

Adele’s research into why students are excluded from our schools and her ensuing report – excerpts of which she shared with, triggered an animated and focused debate.\u00a0 What could we do about the problem?\u00a0 It was impossible to reach a conclusion.\u00a0 But one thing stood out – children and young people with behavioural and educational problems are not necessarily from homes that are short of money, but a huge number are living with parents who have little time to give to their children.<\/p>\n

With the stresses that modern day parents face, especially\u00a0long working hours, adults are too tired to monitor their children’s behaviour and give effective and appropriate discipline.\u00a0 The meeting discussed the lack of communication between adults and their offspring – evening meals in front of the television, where watching a screen has taken over from the interaction that takes place when a family eats together aroung the meal table.<\/p>\n

So what were the outcomes?\u00a0 The audience went away better informed as to what is happening in our schools and the problems of exclusion in general.\u00a0 Can we do anything to help?\u00a0A youth worker suggested that we organise a family picnic and encourage families to eat together.\u00a0 Watch this space!<\/p>\n
