Young people are likely to be worse off than their parents, says Social Mobility Commission; meanwhile, family ties mean older people support policies that prioritise their younger relatives, according to Nuffield Politics Research Centre and Resolution Foundation: this week's #faircomment at faircomment.co.uk/p/intergenerat…
Spot on, this.
We could be looking at an even lower number of working class people if people truthfully declared their social status!
Both the Jerwood Foundation and Social Mobility Commission toolkits good places to start to support understanding the true number.
Join us on the 15th of May for a free webinar on the importance of socioeconomic diversity in the workplace.
We'll be joined by Paula Kemp from Social Mobility Commission

Social Mobility Commission
Yesterday, the Social Mobility Commission released their State of the Nation report, detailing the state of social mobility in the country.
The report breaks data down by region, showing how social mobility not only depends on who your parents are & your education but also where you grew up.
