A head teacher at a north Edinburgh primary school has spoken of how every member of their community is dealing with fears and stress over the current cost of living crisis.
Susan Dunn, who became Ferryhill head back in August 2022, said that in her mind the cost of living crisis is far reaching and is causing worry in households across the capital. With this in mind, she says the focus should not necessarily be about labelling areas as deprived and to look at what universal solutions can be implemented to help families.
Worries over the rising cost of energy has had a knock on effect on a variety of things according to Susan. From households being able to afford food, clothing and experiences for their children.
