Impacts on life chances and society more generally from sufficient and insufficient levels of investment in the education system. Failing to address the COVID-19-related shocks to the education sector will entrench longer-term health inequalities across the life course and contribute to avoidable self-reinforcing cycles of poor health and wellbeing., It is a responsibility for policy-makers and healthcare professionals, as much as it is for education professionals, to act now to address these systemic vulnerabilities even if it requires moving away from the artificial silos we often find ourselves entrenched in.
