It took me back to the mid-1960s and an accident I had at night, with a BRS articulated lorry at a transport cafe on the A48 at Minsterworth, near Gloucester.
A single BRS score, based on long duration observation (5-minute), has been found to be a valid measure of relaxation and is correlated with self-report and some physiological measures.
After a three-week inspection, which involved the school's premises in Newmarket and visits to students in trainers' yards, the Adult Learning Inspectorate (ALI) handed the BRS the accolade of Grade One, Outstanding.
