Why can't we just have sensible policy. Dont really care what that policy is anymore just as long as its backed by research and isn't pandering and the government will evaluate if its successful after implementing
I don't think there was any mechanism for that. Something always felt wrong to me about teachers spending their own money on classroom materials and libraries, but I think there are better ways around that than a boutique tax credit (e.g. schools having some money set aside for that stuff as part of their budget).
