Children and Young people have the right to an education appropriate to their needs and aptitudes. They should be able to develop skills that will help them to contribute effectively to their community, achieve their full potential and have their achievements valued.

Schools have a key role to play, and Sandwell Children's Fund helps to raise attainment levels and develop life skills within schools through constructive partnership working.

Sandwell Children's Fund has supported a number of iniatives to raise the attainment levels in schools. The funding provided has been used in many different ways.
