Poverty has a significant impact on children's education. It affects their development, learning environment, and access to educational opportunities. Children living in poverty often perform poorly in school, face challenges like limited resources and technology, and may suffer from malnutrition, which can impair their learning abilities. Children who have experienced maltreatment also struggle academically and have difficulties building relationships. However, strong parental involvement and support can positively influence academic performance. Poverty is a man-made issue that can be addressed through deliberate efforts by individuals, communities, and society as a whole. Strategies such as providing support programs, adequate funding for schools in impoverished areas, and partnerships with organizations can help alleviate the educational impact of poverty. With unity, we can bring about transformation in the educational system. Influence of poverty on the education of children. It's endorsed once that education is the foundation upon which we build our future. This quote highlights the importance where education plays in shaping the lives of people and in society as a whole. Education contributes to personal development by establishing the foundation for confidence and self-awareness. Poverty goes beyond the direct economic challenges it presents. It affects the most vulnerable persons, namely children. Dr. Ajay and Wilma Christopher from Academic Pediatric Association noted in their article in 2016 that poverty and low income are causally related to worse child development outcomes. Poverty has a prevalent influence that extends to the numerous aspects of the educational system, which includes the environment in which children learn. The detrimental link between poverty and education is evident through a series of interconnected factors, which includes their scarce resources, poor learning environment, and limited access to educational opportunities. This assists us to explore the various ways in which poverty affects the market for limited children's access to quality education, leading to the continuous cycle of inequalities, in the end, deterring the academic competence. To begin with, poverty can influence the education of children by intensifying academic deficits. A study done by Helen Nicole and her colleagues from Jamal Pediatrics in 2016 states that children living in poverty generally perform poorly in school with lower test scores and lower educational attainment. The longer children live in poverty, the greater their academic deficits. They find that children encounter numerous challenges while growing in poverty, which affects their academic performance. Most non-learners often face challenges such as limited access to technology, access to resources, and other educational resources that make learning more appropriate. Also, they agree that the more children endure economic hardships, their academic challenges become more severe. Also, inhibited nutrition can negatively affect the mental development and overall well-being of children. Nutrient deficiencies, such as iron deficiency, are known to impair learning and cause decreased productivity in school-aged children, according to a 2015 research study by Oxford University Press. Nutrition plays a vital part in the early window of opportunity for a child's growth. Proper nutrition is required for brain development during the initial thousand days of a child's life. During this period, children need to be fed well with the right amount of nutrients, vitamins, and minerals to support their developing brains and bodies. Malnutrition can have lifelong effects on a child's mental ability, possibly affecting their academic performances. Therefore, ensuring that a baby is well fed with the required nutrients will positively impact their learning potential in making the child smart. In contrast to deprivation, some believe that it is important to consider other factors contributing to academic deficits. The Manuela Lisa and her associates in their article, Childhood Maltreatment and Educational Outcomes, in 2016 said that children with maltreatment histories often face academic impairments such as special education, grade retention, lower grades, and mental well-being like low mood, aggression, anxiety, which could even go to the extent of poor interpersonal relationships. We view challenges being more pronounced among maltreated children in out-of-home care. This article notes and affirms that children who are being maltreated from their parents often struggle in school and sometimes find it difficult to build relationships with others. These complications become more severe for children placed in out-of-home care such as foster homes or orphanages. Maltreated children tend to struggle in school because critical parts of their lives were negatively affected, impacting their child's ability to focus in school, resulting in poor academic performance. More rapid supervision on children's learning activities is associated with strong academic performance. Castro Mario and her co-authors from Educational Research Review in 2016 show that parental models most linked to high achievement are those focusing on general supervision of the children's learning activities. The strongest associations are found when the families have high academic expectations for their children, develop and maintain communication with them about school activities. This article explores more on how parents play a crucial role in improving the academics of their children. Parents raising high academic expectations for their children creates an inducive environment where education is prioritized, motivating them to study harder. Engaging children in conversations about their school life shows that parental support creates a conducive atmosphere for academic excellence. In conclusion, Nelson Mandela once said, poverty is not an accident like slavery and apartheid, it is man-made and can be removed by the actions of human beings. Nelson Mandela quotes proposing that poverty is man-made, therefore it can be reduced or eliminated through deliberate efforts by the citizens, communities and society. The influence of poverty on the education of children is an issue that needs to be addressed. It is necessary to review this challenge as an opportunity for transformation. The increase in academic deficits, inadequate nutrition, the unequal allocation and distribution of resources, also confusing the counter-arguments influence the education of children. In order to address the educational grasp caused by poverty, the government must implement several strategies by providing information to support students from poor backgrounds, which can include extra-academic programs. In addition, ensuring the right funding for schools in the impoverished areas, partnering with organizations to provide more support for students will reduce economic taxes, which does not only improve the individual but the community as a whole. With unity we can all bring transformation in the educational system.
