While there have been growing concerns about the permeation of business in education, relatively little attention has been paid to how schools are increasingly engaged in the “business” of fundraising for charities.
At WISERD Education, we have been examining the increasingly close relationship between young people, their schools and charities. Our research, based on surveys of over 1,000 school students in Wales, shows that young people have a high degree of engagement with charities, and that schools play a significant part in this.
There are also questions about the extent to which presenting charities as the “solution” to a range of social “ills” downplays the potential of other approaches. Many of the problems tackled by the charities our respondents supported – child poverty, homelessness, animal welfare – could perhaps be more appropriately addressed through government solutions. By continuing to provide “sticking plaster” remedies for chronic social needs, charities might serve to maintain the conditions that create the problem and forestall the more fundamental changes needed.
Evidently, though there are many potential benefits to charitable engagement in schools, there are still deeply concerning issues to address. Is the mainstreaming of charities evidence of increasing commercialisation within schools? Set within a political climate where civil society is increasingly being heralded as the answer to a wide range of enduring social and economic problems, it’s open to question whether schools should be endorsing the virtues of charities when state interventions may be more appropriate.
There are no straightforward answers. But rather than assuming that any kind of charity engagement within schools is unquestionably worthwhile, schools and their students at least need to consider these questions.
