🚨The special needs system is on the brink of collapse. The government's spending watchdog will publish its own likely damning investigation this week

But we’ve been chronicling the collapse for years. And I just want to set out how seriously bad things are … (mega 🧵)

"...the impact is clear. After just one year, our research shows there has been a significant improvement in pupils’ financial knowledge."

Pleased to see this paper out in the wild - it provides important evidence about the impact that training police to reduce their use of force can have - which is, fortunately, to reduce their use of force...!

[Matt Ashby @LessCrime]

A new scenario-based, evidence-informed, officer-safety training course for UK police led to a 10% reduction in use of force and no increase in injuries to officers.
