At a glance headlines: Thursday, September 3, 2015

Grants for families in crisis, an inquiry into the role of the Regional Schools Commissioners and guidance on the Prevent Duty for schools are among the At a glance headlines for SecEd on September 3, 2015.

Children's grant-giving organisation, Buttle UK, is offering families living in crisis access to grants of up to £300.
This programme is designed to help ensure that children who are experiencing very difficult circumstances where their safety, health or development is at risk, still have their basic material needs met. The funding is available to provide essential items such as a bed to help a young person sleep, a washing machine so a child has clean clothes to wear to school, or a cooker to give them a hot meal.

Buttle UK is a charity which has directly supported children and young people for more than 60 years and distributes grants through the BBC Children in Need Emergency Essentials Programme.
