The Netherlands is one of a small group of rich countries where the poorest children suffer relatively little inequality, according to a new report by international children’s charity Unicef.

Denmark, Finland and the Netherlands are ranked the top three in terms of leading the way in promoting equality in children’s well-being and the Netherlands has the lowest level of inequality for health, the research found.
The Netherlands was eighth in the educational equality ranking.
The report studied 24 OECD countries and the researchers point out much of the data is pre-economic crisis.
Greece, Italy and the United States performed worst overall.
