Try working in an inner-city school and you’ll soon find out why this is needed.
Edit: Source: have taught in schools in deprived areas / inner city schools.
I remember growing up and that there was a police officer at our school at all times. There was quite a significant race issue which often boiled over. I’m all for it, I guess.
My school used to ALWAYS have police outside the gates at end of day, and occasionally be greeted with a metal detector on the way in
And it was needed too, animals would carry knives and fight in the nearby kfc every single day
We’ve needed the police more and more over the years to curb the parents behavior outside in the midlands. People will straight up endanger other kids on the regular because they’re either late or lazy.
>The Runnymede Trust race equality think tank found 979 Safer Schools Officers (SSOs) in schools last spring, compared with 683 in 2021.

>It found SSOs are more likely to be based in schools with higher numbers of children on free school meals, often with higher numbers of black pupils.
Maybe they’re needed there? Maybe Tarquin and Jemima don’t take knives to school? Maybe Jaxon and Chardonay are more likely to?
Perhaps they take knives because they’re more at risk of being victims of antisocial behaviour?
>A wealth of evidence shows that antisocial behaviour is more common in children from families of lower socioeconomic status (SES)
