Research shows that parents that interact with their children in both quality and quantity influences their children’s learning and development the most. However, living in poverty can prevent families from engaging in their children’s early learning. In the United Kingdom, there are more than 4 million children growing up in poverty. There is a learning gap between children from low-income families and children from mid-income or high-income families.
