Why teenagers are mentoring senior Met Police officers

Three teenagers have mentored a trio of the Metropolitan Police's top women officers for six months.

The reverse mentoring project aimed to help officers get closer to communities they serve by gaining fresh perspectives on issues including domestic abuse, knife crime and social inequality.

The force teamed up with charity The Girls’ Network to launch the pilot programme, which provided the young women with a chance to play a part in influencing the actions and attitudes of the Met Police.

2. "Top women officers" only? I guess the men officers had nothing to learn.

3. The women officers

may be the ones who handle most of the crimes described--domestic abuse, child protection, that sort of thing. But it would be interesting to have teenage boys mentor some male officers on gangs, etc. Also, this is a pilot program.
