Teachers in Cornwall are sharing a common concern: children are arriving at school hungry, tired, or in pain due to lack of support for their families.

Written by Cornwall Council's director of public health and his team, it reveals that in some Cornish communities, as many as three in 10 children are growing up in poverty.
Behind those figures are parents doing their best, juggling work, childcare and rising costs.
