Journal Article
Mills, M., & Thomson, P. (2022). English schooling and little e and big E exclusion: what’s equity got to do with it?. Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties, 27(3), 185-198. https://doi.org/10.1080/13632752.2022.2092273

It seems uncontentious that policy development should be informed by evidence, and that researchers should be engaged to assess available evidence. In this paper, we tell the story of a Rapid Evidence Assessment (REA) about school exclusion, a task i...
