It indicated the relationship between poverty and educational failure and the lack of educational opportunity that leads to unemployment and poverty.
Six themes call for separate in-depth analysis across a range of disciplines encompassing education, psychology, philosophy, sociology and social policy. It examines themes from pre-school, primary, post primary and into adult and community education.
A concluding section seeks to build on previous chapters in o9rder to promote an agenda for a holistic second level change
