union he ran. Join me now on BBC Two, 11pm in Scotland. On BBC One,

time for the It could take some time

for all of the 17 Edinburgh schools, The council leader said some had

faults that might be fixed quickly, but others could have

"longer term" problems. Hundreds more pupils

returned to classes today, including the remaining fourth,

fifth and sixth years Here's our education

correspondent Jamie McIvor. Like an equation, you add and

subtract... It was business as usual at Drummond community high school

today. All of the pupils are now back and the gradual return to

school across Edinburgh is continuing. All children will resume

their education by next choose stay but someone to be in their usual

schools. We will focus on getting all the schools open as soon as

possible. It might be months before some of them are ready to be open?

It impossible for me to be definitive about that. Some might be

days, some might be weeks and some might be longer but I can't be

certain. Most of Drummond high is a 100 years old but major work

certain. Most of Drummond high is a done here ten years ago. All the

students are back today but significant parts of the building

are still closed off. Through there significant parts of the building

is the gym hall. It's very strictly out of bounds. All students due to

sit exams soon are now back at school. Some practical exams have

been postponed. We'd hope the next three weeks would fully prepare our

young people for the exams and any borderline cases, I'd hope it would

be the case between and a and B, rather than pass and fail. Urgent

repairs are being identified but the issues go well be and the disruption

and worry facing students and parents. The 17 schools closed this

week were built or refurbished using a private finance scheme. The

company responsible is the Edinburgh schools partnership. The council is

withholding payments and chew compensation. We are clawing back

?350,000 a week, ?1.5 million a month, in terms of fees not paid to

the partnership because they are responsible for the maintenance and

management of the schools. Weathered finance deals have always been

controversial for schools but separate to this there is a question

about council building control. It turns out the private business not

the council signed the school. Depending on the type of contract,

there might have been no requirement for the authority to carry out a

formal inspection. But questions over why things went so badly wrong

will take time to answer. The youngsters here are lucky than many.

Some parents and children still don't know which school building

they will be going to next week, let alone when they might be back in

their normal building. The trial of two women accused

of murdering two-year-old Liam Fee has heard that it would be possible

for a "single stamp" from another child to have caused the injury

that killed the toddler. Rachel and Nyomi Fee deny killing

the young boy at a house near Glenrothes in March 2014

and blaming his death From the High Court in Livingston,

Lisa Summers reports. For a second day, pathologists were

question on Liam Fee's cause of death. The court heard it was a

rupture to the heart caused by severe force and would have led to

his death almost instantaneously. Nyomi Fee was Mac lawyer asked the

pathologist about the injuries identified on the body. The

pathologist was asked about the strength of the blow to his body. Is

tonight killing Liam Fee in 2014 and blaming his death on another child,

and they denied charges of neglecting two other boys. The trial

here continues. The man in charge of policing this

weekend's Scottish Cup semi-finals has outlined how the terror attack

on the Stade de France in Paris has BBC Scotland has been

given access to the hub, from where security and safety

will be co-ordinated. All quite now but by the weekend

this Glasgow police station will be a hive of activity. This is where a

massive security operation surrounding the Scottish Cup

semifinals will be masterminded. Hampton said in might be the main

focus but this operation takes on the rest of Glasgow and towns and

cities all over the country. Factored into their safety strategy

is a new element. The terror attack on the Stade de France means

additional security is the norm. Glasgow police host events week in

and week out and we have a proportional level of response

there. The threat level is severe. We are alive to that. We have armed

officers on duty. 365 days a year and 24-hour is a day to provide a

response should we need to respond. It's not just the job of the police

to ensure things go smoothly at the weekend. Inside the stadium, it is

also the responsibility of Hampton Park Limited, their operation will

be controlled from up inside the control room behind me to my right.

That's where they will be monitoring fans to insure their safety, first

and foremost, but also to keep an eye on any potential disorder. The

and foremost, but also to keep an authorities are desperate to avoid

further instances of pyrotechnics being set off inside the stadium is.

Equally, police say offensive behaviour, including singing, will

be dealt with, if not on the day, then retrospectively. Historically,

Rangers versus Celtic games can be volatile. Players have been reminded

of their responsibilities. Our words of advice forgotten in the heat of

battle? It is common sense that it is also partly emotion, the

excitement, and that is why you have to keep a level head when you are

playing. The players have responsibility for themselves, to

their team-mates, to the club, to the fans. Whatever you need to win,

you'll do. Although there is plenty at stake, police are as keen as

anyone for the post match headlines to be about first football. -- to be

about the football. At the halfway point

in the Holyrood election, jobs, wages and pensions have dominated

the day's campaigning. Here's our political

correspondent, Glenn Campbell. When ship will ding jobs came under

threat in the lower Clyde... Nicola Sturgeon says SNP ministers helped

find a buyer for Ferguson 's and that she wouldn't hesitate to step

in again in similar circumstances. If you want to have a First Minister

and government that puts economic growth central to everything we do

and is prepared to intervene to protect jobs and industries, that

government has to be the SNP. At lunch with older people in

Easterhouse, Labour is promising to dish out extra cash to some female

pensioners who are losing out on new came title and. They say better

benefits can be paid for by growing a more highly skilled workforce. The

only way we can bring high skilled these are jobs to Scotland is by

investing in those skills which is why we are arguing to use the tax

powers to invest more in education. To get ahead of the economic

competition, the Conservatives in Hamilton say politicians need to

make running a business easier. It's about tailored business support,

keeping business rates low, freezing them until we get an overhaul, and

not making Scotland the highest taxed part of the UK like the other

parties want to do. In Dunfermline, the Liberal Democrats want no more

tax to go to grants to firms that don't page the living wage and more

investment in education. The biggest talent we have in this country is a

skilled workforce. Education has suffered in recent years. We need to

reverse that to get the workforce back to its best so we can have a

vibrant economy. Different parties, different priorities for growing the

economy. Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs

insists there's no favourite ahead of Saturday's Scottish Cup semifinal

match against Dundee United. Both sides have been struggling

in their respective leagues lately, Hibs fighting for second

in the Championship and United facing relegation

from the Premiership, so who can come out on top

at the National Stadium? Here's our senior Football Reporter

Chris McLaughlin. There's been plenty of talk about

the Hampton pitch which has just been relayed in the lead up to this

weekend. Plenty of talk, too, about the Old Firm. Today, it's all about

these two. The head-to-head has become something of a tradition. The

two sides with a worrying Hampton history, it is the present that is

causing concern. Princes Street in Edinburgh look like this the last

time Hibs won the trophy in 1942. In 2016 they've won two matches in 11

but... Form is temporary. Quality is permanent. And when you've got

quality, it is just a matter of time before that comes back to the fore.

They've remained defiant in the face of difficulties. This year has been

really bad. The numbers that follow us away from home, the numbers

regularly attending are great. They are vocal and they support the team.

Looking at the form, you will say both will lose because they are in

Looking at the form, you will say such a horrendous state. I was at

Hibs the other night, they threw away their lead. We all know the

kind of season Dundee United have had, so it is difficult to pick a

winner. If one can shake of the past and current form, a final against

Celtic or Rangers awaits. Well, it's over to the weather

outlook for tonight and tomorrow. Good evening. We've had a reasonable

day of weather but it is all change tonight into tomorrow morning. Some

real wintry weather in the forecast and as a result the Met Office has

issued a yellow be aware warning for some snow. More especially in the

north of Scotland. Here is why. This cold front continues to push towards

the north and behind that a cold northerly wind turning the rain to

snow, more across the mountains and the high ground. Perhaps a of snow

during the night to lower levels. Ice on roads. Temperatures had

freezing. Tomorrow morning, that band of rain and sleet and snow

sinking its way through central and southern Scotland through the day.

Behind it tomorrow afternoon, more wintry showers feeding into the

North a heavy, frequent showers with the odd rumble of thunder. Snow to

lower levels, unlikely to settle by the hours of daylight with strong

April sunshine melting these snow showers. It'll feel fairly cold with

strong to gale force northerly wind. We will see some sleet and snow

through central and southern areas, the snow largely a high ground

future with tricky driving conditions. Across the UK, and

improving picture across Northern Ireland. Some wet weather across

northern England and some heavy downpours through is parts of

southern and eastern England with the odd rumble of thunder. There is

a temperature contrast with highs of 15 in London, some of us in Scotland

struggling to reach five or six. For the evening period in Scotland, we

lose the band of rain, sleet and snow, but there are wintry showers

in the north, perhaps settling in the Highlands. Saturday, and

improving picture. Largely dry and bright and staying cool. That is the

forecast. Our next update is during Breakfast

at 6:25am tomorrow morning. But, from everyone on the late team

here in Glasgow and around
