The end of the school day is a moment so many children look forward to. The bell rings and they rush out of class to get home.
But for over 9,500 children in Scotland, school is an escape from the tough reality of being homeless. It's a place where – for a few hours each day – they feel warm. Safe, settled, protected from dangerous mould. Free from worries about rodents or lice.
It's not home time for children facing homelessness.
