At Square Peg we believe that:
Every child and young person has the right to access an education that helps them flourish and grow to live full, equitable and empowered lives. No child or young person should be facing challenges or adversity alone.
Every child, young person and their family has the right to safe, accessible, affordable housing and transport, a vibrant and supportive community, to feel well, healthy, optimistic and positive about themselves and the opportunities ahead of them.
Every child, young person and their family has the right to live with dignity, agency and self-respect; to seek advice, support and care when they need it without fear or recrimination.
Square Peg is a unique, multi-disciplinary organisation working across education and allied services, research, academia, policy, practice, government, the third sector, technology, design and innovation.
We are proud of our grassroots community and partnership ethos built on participatory action principles of equity, inclusion, co-creation and intersectional, dynamic connected thinking. Through our campaigns, writing, research, advocacy, amplification of the voices we endeavour to represent, and connecting people with common interests to effect change and deliver improvement for all, we catalyse conversations, develop solutions, and dare to dream of a brighter future for everyone.
We’re on a quest to restore trust in families, ensure happiness in childhood and build inclusive, accessible systems and services which empower and enable everyone to thrive and shine.
Visit our website to view our impact to date, our change-making successes, our calls to action and our invitation to become a collaborator today.
There are 1.5 million children struggling to attend, access or remain in education. Let's work collectively to flip the narrative and find Another Way. Together.
