Towards Self-Resourcing Crossing Supervision

A Regression-Discontinuity Estimate of Kerbside Ticketing's Effect on Roster Sign-Up at the School Gate

A paper from the School of Emergent Priorities and the School of Continuous Improvement treats a primary school's incidental fifteen-metre kerbside stopping line as a regression-discontinuity instrument, finding that parents ticketed for stopping beyond the line are sharply more likely to join the following term's crossing-supervision roster. The school's kiss-and-drop working group has adopted ticket status as a formal recruitment signal, auto-enrolling every ticketed parent with no ordinary opt-out short of a written application to the working group.
