Children’s Commissioner for England Dame Rachel de Souza has launched a major survey to get the views of children ahead of a general election
The Children’s Commissioner for England said she wants whoever ends up in the next government to be “as ambitious for children as they are for themselves”, with many concerned about issues including poverty, education, and mental health support.The latest survey – a follow-up to The Big Ask which reached 500,000 young people in 2021 – has been sent to 22,500 schools across England and is also being sent to children and young people in care homes, hospitals, young offender institutes and hostels.
Dame Rachel told the PA news agency: “With an election coming up I want to make sure that children’s voices, young people’s voices, are absolutely heard by Government and by Parliament and by policymakers as we come to this key moment. So often they’re not, so it’s really important for me that we get their voices out there.”Dame Rachel said: “Only two years ago we were in the pandemic.
“And that means putting the support around children that they need to achieve these goals, whether that’s education, whether that’s healthcare, whether that’s mental health support, special educational needs support. Sixteen year-old Salma Amin said: “I think students in deprived areas should be prioritised because the funding in schools sets a precedent for a person’s life. I think education is inextricably linked to social mobility.”
