This is East Midlands Today. Our top story tonight, a head | :00:07. | :00:14. | |
teacher is sacked for altering his pupils' SATs tests. Aleks Grubisic | :00:14. | :00:19. | |
said he only wanted to make the children's answers clearer. | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
Plus the best news for Bethany. A perfect bone marrow match is found | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
in Germany. I am so happy that I am going to | :00:27. | :00:31. | |
have my sister for the rest of my life. | :00:31. | :00:36. | |
Also, why Jesse Jackson has come to Leicester with talk of tackling | :00:36. | :00:42. | |
inequality to combat extremism. And wedding inflation. We look at | :00:42. | :00:52. | |

Hello, good evening. First tonight, East Midlands Today has learned | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
that a primary school head teacher has been sacked for gross | :01:02. | :01:10. | |
misconduct. He altered his pupils' SATs papers. | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
Speed king exclusively, Aleks Grubisic says he is bitterly | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
disappointed to have lost his headship at Little Bowden Primary | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
School in Market Harborough. We can cross now to Victoria Hicks, | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
who is in our Leicester studio. When did all this happen? | :01:27. | :01:33. | |
It started in the summer when the year six students took their SATs | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
papers. The results came back, and eight formal complaint was lost -- | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
was lodged from within the school. That is when a national body | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
intervened. This was the head teacher, Aleks Grubisic. He is 50, | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
he has been in teaching for 25 years, and for the last two years | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
he was head of 2-1. When that national body intervened, is re- | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
examined all the papers of the children. -- Little Bowden Primary | :02:01. | :02:08. | |
School. It then took the unusual step of cancelling the test results. | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
That meant the children went on to their new school without results. | :02:12. | :02:16. | |
Mr Grubisic was sacked for gross misconduct and four fours VI school | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
record. You spoke to him at his home in Leicester this afternoon. | :02:21. | :02:26. | |
What does he say he did? He did not want to talk on camera, | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
but he did admit to making some changes to his plea pupils' papers. | :02:31. | :02:38. | |
He says he did not falsify them, or improve his school's standing in | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
the tables. He said he did not want his pupils to be marked down for | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
unclear or messy work. So that meant if the answers were written | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
in the wrong place, on some papers he moved to the answer or wrote an | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
arrow to make it clear where the right answer was. He admits he made | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
a mistake doing that, but he said at the time he faced a personal | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
problems and panicked when he saw the papers. | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
What have the governors had to say? We approached the governing body, | :03:06. | :03:11. | |
we have had no response. We also wanted an end to be from the local | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
education authority, but the council Cantor instead issued a | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
statement confirming we already knew. -- County Council. This is | :03:21. | :03:27. | |
what some parents had to save. It is not very good. Not the best | :03:27. | :03:32. | |
thing to happen. Not very good for the school or the children. I do | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
not think it has been handled very fairly. No background has been | :03:35. | :03:40. | |
given about the reasons for this, and I do think that there are a lot | :03:40. | :03:44. | |
of whispers going on, and I do not think that is fair. | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
I do not believe all the full report has come out. I think we | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
should have been told more Falstaff if it was human error all his fault, | :03:52. | :03:58. | |
he has done so much for the school it will be a shame bad he has left | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
for the reasons he has. This afternoon, Mr Grubisic told me | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
he apologised to pupils and parents. As for his future, he has been | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
warned he could be struck off. So after 25 years' experience, he may | :04:13. | :04:20. | |
never teach again. Still to come, lean times on the | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
High Street. Consumers are reining in their Christmas spending, at | :04:24. | :04:34. | |
:04:34. | :04:37. | ||
that could mean Turkey with fewer The perfect match, but will it be | :04:37. | :04:43. | |
enough to save young Bethany? The 14-year-old desperately needs a | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
bone marrow transplant. Her family have just been told that a donor | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
has been found in Germany. They say they are thrilled and can | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
finally contemplate celebrating Christmas. | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
They have not felt much like doing this up until now, but today it is | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
as if all their Christmases have come at once. | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
It was amazing to hear them, because I had not thought I would | :05:09. | :05:14. | |
get a full match. I am very happy and excited and am very grateful. | :05:14. | :05:19. | |
I am so happy I will have my sister for the rest of my life. Really | :05:19. | :05:23. | |
pleased. Bethany's had leukaemia since she | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
was three. She had been in remission, but it came back a few | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
weeks ago. More chemotherapy is no longer an option. | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
It was a huge shock, because I was feeling so well. I try to stay | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
positive with my family. None of us thought for a minute | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
that it would return. It was horrible. It was absolutely | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
heartbreaking, I can't describe how horrible it was to hear that. So | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
the fact that there could be a really good match out there for | :05:58. | :06:06. | |
Bethany is over during a, and so happy. | :06:06. | :06:14. | |
Geller has networked passionately for her sister. -- Gemma. They had | :06:14. | :06:18. | |
the biggest ever donor session in Leicester last month. 4000 people | :06:18. | :06:24. | |
contributed. You have been through so much. How | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
do feel about this news? Yesterday when they told us there | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
was a potential donor for Bethany, it was almost like a little miracle. | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
And it means Bethany's Merry Christmas could be followed by a | :06:39. | :06:48. | |
very happy new year. Fingers crossed for her. | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
A police force that has seen a sharp drop in burglary figures has | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
been ordered to check if they are accurate. Government inspectors are | :06:55. | :06:58. | |
worried that some house break-ins in Nottinghamshire might not have | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
been reported. This comes as they begin a pre- | :07:03. | :07:13. | |
:07:13. | :07:14. | ||
Christmas crackdown on burglaries. Police! Open the door! Another | :07:14. | :07:22. | |
burglary suspect at a -- an early- morning raid this morning. The | :07:22. | :07:26. | |
owner of his hair salon told me how his home was ransacked yesterday | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
morning. They smashed a window then stole jewellery, a computer and a | :07:31. | :07:36. | |
new TV. It is just measurable. It makes you feel totally unprotected | :07:36. | :07:42. | |
and insecure. I did not sleep very well last night. My wife did not | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
either. We were listening for all sorts of noises. We wondered what | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
we have to do to protect our possessions. | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
Tackling burglary has been a priority for the police in | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
Nottinghamshire, as the official figures have been going down for | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
several years. But today, this report has raised questions about | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
how reliable the figures are. Inspectors found concerns that | :08:05. | :08:10. | |
house burglary may have been under recorded by Nottinghamshire Police. | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
They said some crimes were not order consistently, as they have | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
read -- they have ordered a six- month audit. | :08:17. | :08:23. | |
We are concerned if the force has not been recorded incorrectly. It | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
is important for the public that they have confidence that the | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
police force is going to record their crimes directly. Today, | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
Nottinghamshire Police made a robust defence of the force's crime | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
figures. Reporting and recording standards | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
in this force are totally accurate, 94% of all crimes reported to us | :08:46. | :08:50. | |
are correctly classified. The ones that are not, that is sometimes | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
because the public when they first report the crime, they do not give | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
us enough information to base our assumptions on. | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
But the police are worried that Nottinghamshire is starting to see | :09:01. | :09:08. | |
more burglaries reported, as they want us all to help tackle that. | :09:08. | :09:14. | |
Jeremy has joined us in the studio. Why is all of this so important? | :09:14. | :09:18. | |
Crime statistics are so important when it comes to judging the police. | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
Last week we heard a retired police inspector go public about his | :09:22. | :09:26. | |
worries. What this draft report does is really raised questions | :09:26. | :09:29. | |
about their credibility in black- and-white. Nottinghamshire Police | :09:29. | :09:37. | |
do not agree? No, they're quite angry. But they say they have | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
checked to those we classified burglaries that the inspection team | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
was worried about, they say aid has established a there was not a | :09:43. | :09:48. | |
problem. In fact, one police chief told me he is convinced that | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
Nottinghamshire's crime figures are probably more accurate than a lot | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
of others. More than 40 jobs in Nottingham are | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
at risk because of government proposals to close 39 regional | :09:59. | :10:06. | |
offices of the DVLA. 46 posts will go at the Bilborough office in | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
Nottingham. Ministers want to centralise the DVLA's work at its | :10:10. | :10:17. | |
headquarters in Swansea by the end of 2013. Today's saw the start of a | :10:17. | :10:21. | |
three-month long consultation. Police are searching for a gang up | :10:21. | :10:24. | |
and -- armed robbers who threatened a building society staff in | :10:24. | :10:28. | |
Elkstone. Money was being delivered to the company of this when a group | :10:28. | :10:33. | |
of men smashed into the front door? -- with sledgehammers. They escaped | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
with four cash boxes, but dropped one on the street. | :10:39. | :10:42. | |
This vehicle was stolen nearly a fortnight ago, so it is been | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
outstanding for quite a while. It is critical to establish exactly | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
where that has been in that intervening period. We know it is a | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
dark coloured BMW, and I would appeal for any witnesses to come | :10:55. | :11:00. | |
forward if they have seen it. He once advised Martin Luther King | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
and President Clinton and Obama. Today the American civil rights | :11:05. | :11:08. | |
leader Reverend Jesse Jackson was in Leicester. | :11:08. | :11:11. | |
He was talking about his experience of bringing different communities | :11:11. | :11:21. | |
:11:21. | :11:22. | ||
together to combat extremism. A standing ovation for a civil | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
rights leader who at 70, remains an energetic champion for social | :11:27. | :11:33. | |
justice, and who is not afraid to speak his mind. The Reverend Jesse | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
Jackson Wouter this conference at De Montfort University of the | :11:36. | :11:44. | |
dangers of growing its trainers and. -- warned this conference. | :11:44. | :11:47. | |
Hope is diminishing. We must go another way. | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
He was addressing the first conference of its type organised by | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
a parliamentary committee investigating the Brits of a | :11:54. | :12:01. | |
violent radicalism. He has worked so hard. They have | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
been growing concern over far right extremism, and following the London | :12:05. | :12:09. | |
bombings in 2005, there is now closer surveillance of some Muslim | :12:09. | :12:14. | |
communities and universities. Jesse Jackson told be the dangers | :12:14. | :12:23. | |
of stereotyping people were there, whatever their religion. | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
The house of prayer becomes a House of Commerce. That is what Jesus | :12:27. | :12:33. | |
said. It was radical law, but not radical hate. Then we are | :12:33. | :12:39. | |
challenged to teach people that the science never races take valid | :12:39. | :12:46. | |
reaction to respond with violence. This is a real attempt with -- by | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
MPs took why then are the voices of those genuinely alarmed by growing | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
extremism both at home and abroad. There is a wide range of extremism | :12:55. | :12:58. | |
that needs to be addressed, and not one based on Islam or one | :12:58. | :13:02. | |
particular faith. The only way to do that is to work in conjunction | :13:02. | :13:07. | |
with the communities and government. Jesse Jackson received an honorary | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
degree from demand that University for his lifelong were to civil | :13:10. | :13:19. | |
rights. He still believes there is much injustice to put right. | :13:19. | :13:22. | |
We all know that prices are going up for pretty much everything, not | :13:22. | :13:26. | |
least food. In fact, the traditional Christmas dinner | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
provides a prime example of the rising cost of filling the shopping | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
basket. Research carried out by the | :13:33. | :13:36. | |
University of Nottingham suggest this year it could be a case of | :13:36. | :13:43. | |
Turkey with only a very few of the trimmings. Mike O'Sullivan is at | :13:43. | :13:49. | |
the Victoria Centre in Nottingham. The shops here are up until 8pm, | :13:49. | :13:53. | |
some of them, as the Christmas rush builds up. If you are thinking of | :13:53. | :13:56. | |
spending, I have been looking at some figures which should indicate | :13:56. | :14:01. | |
to you how your pay is keeping up with inflation, and another | :14:01. | :14:04. | |
estimate on inflation that will show how it is pushing up the cost | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
of your Christmas dinner this year. Turkey with all the trimmings. How | :14:11. | :14:18. | |
much more work cost due this year? Economists have worked it out. The | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
experts say a festive dinner for six people will cost an average �74 | :14:23. | :14:30. | |
this year. That is �3.70 more than last year. That is based on an | :14:30. | :14:36. | |
average shopping trip going up by 5% it in a year. | :14:36. | :14:42. | |
Everything has gone up. The turkey is twice as much as a few years ago. | :14:42. | :14:46. | |
I will probably have less people over for dinner. Less presents, | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
less varied. Christmas is a special occasion, | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
and I do not think that will affect what we do on Christmas Day. But | :14:55. | :15:00. | |
generally, I do agree that food prices are expensive. | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
Food inflation is at an almost 20 year high. General inflation now | :15:05. | :15:11. | |
stands at almost 4.8%. So our wages keeping pace with inflation? | :15:11. | :15:14. | |
Figures show that in many places they are not. In the East Midlands, | :15:14. | :15:22. | |
average pay is just over �24,300. In Leicester, it has gone up a | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
little bit more. Nottingham has little bit more. Nottingham has | :15:26. | :15:27. | |
seen an increase, but it could be because there are fewer part-time | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
jobs and fewer low-paid jobs around two Adin. Derby has seen a drop in | :15:33. | :15:43. | |
:15:43. | :15:47. | ||
pay levels. These new mothers have Just trying to find the best offers, | :15:47. | :15:52. | |
looking through leaflets and things like that. By them when you find a | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
good offer. I only spend what I can afford and it does not last long | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
for me. I am sure these words might come back to haunt me, because this | :16:03. | :16:07. | |
is all about forecasting, but all the indicators suggest that | :16:07. | :16:10. | |
inflation has peaked and we will probably see it all over the next | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
commands. The Government's inflation target is to%. We could | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
be heading that way, but because a bleak -- possibly because of weak | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
demand and the economy. There are other factors they could | :16:24. | :16:30. | |
bring down inflation. The Chancellor cancer and 3p per litre | :16:30. | :16:35. | |
increase in fuel duty will be a welcome relief for many families | :16:35. | :16:40. | |
will start -- the Chancellor cancelling. We hope that spending | :16:40. | :16:43. | |
will pick up in the run-up to Christmas. | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
Fingers crossed. In avenues, Derbyshire County Council has | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
signed a deal to create 700 apprenticeships over the next four | :16:52. | :16:58. | |
years. The scheme costing around �500,000 will be targeted at 16 and | :16:58. | :17:01. | |
17-year-olds who are not in education, employment or training. | :17:01. | :17:07. | |
The council is also offering training grants of �2,500 to small | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
and medium-sized companies to take on apprentices. | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
There has been a lot of talk of wind and wintriness this week. | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
Here's Sara with a quick look ahead to the forecast. | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
It is remaining very cold and windy throughout most of this week and | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
some of the Shah as we are likely to see could also produce a little | :17:25. | :17:35. | |
:17:35. | :17:39. | ||
bit of snow. -- some of the showers. It does look pretty. Even when it | :17:39. | :17:45. | |
is fake! Nothing fake about our Natalie, with the sport. | :17:45. | :17:49. | |
Football, and Nottingham Forest chairman Fred Clarke has told us | :17:49. | :17:53. | |
tonight they have been no bids to buy the Cup since it was put up for | :17:53. | :17:57. | |
sale. In a powerful and honest interview he admitted he had found | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
it difficult in the last few months and says he cannot bring any | :18:02. | :18:05. | |
players in this January unless some go out. | :18:05. | :18:10. | |
He is a former European Cup-winning hero, so when not in Forest came | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
calling, Frank Clark knew he would help out. -- Nottingham Forest. But | :18:16. | :18:21. | |
the last two months has been harder than he thought. They got in an | :18:21. | :18:24. | |
ambitious manager who wants to build Rome in a day. That is one of | :18:24. | :18:29. | |
the reasons we brought him here. We want someone ambitious. He is | :18:29. | :18:35. | |
frustrated and we are frustrated that because of the financial | :18:35. | :18:39. | |
realities, we cannot do as much as we would like for him at the moment. | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
So that is something I am having to deal with. But this time last year, | :18:45. | :18:51. | |
Nottingham Forest were on the verge of six spot. They are now in the | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
bottom three. What has gone wrong in such a short space of time? | :18:58. | :19:01. | |
don't know what was done before we came here. I could tell you that | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
any club that has the managers in six months has problems. Eventually. | :19:08. | :19:11. | |
And the problem for Frank has now is he has to sell players before he | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
can bring any more in. We have to trade and not necessarily selling | :19:16. | :19:22. | |
and buying, we might be someone in on-loan, so we need to move | :19:22. | :19:26. | |
somebody out. What about the sale of the club, has there been any | :19:26. | :19:30. | |
interest for many buyers? The last time we heard from them, there was | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
no approaches whatsoever. So are you looking at alternative sources | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
of income? We are looking to strengthen the board, who might be | :19:40. | :19:46. | |

earlier this year. For four games, I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The | :22:05. | :22:11. | |

Being organised, you can definitely save money. Lots of people like | :23:51. | :23:56. | |

were the parents have contributed a lot and will still spend thousands, | :24:00. | :24:02. | |
but there are other brides have probably would rather use the money | :24:03. | :24:07. | |
on the mortgage on a house, so don't -- so go for something | :24:07. | :24:11. | |
slightly cheaper. Some businesses have kept prices the same for four | :24:11. | :24:15. | |

It will stick by windy throughout the early part of the evening and | :25:38. | :25:42. | |
we might see a few showers. But no rainbows tonight. A rainbow was | :25:43. | :25:52. | |
captured last Friday by sue Robinson. She managed to capture a | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
double rainbow. These keep your pictures coming in. We will start | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
to see this evening not only quite a strong West south-westerly wind, | :26:02. | :26:07. | |
but also a few showers around the region. The majority will be more | :26:07. | :26:13. | |

into the early hours of the morning. Frost starting to form, a very cold | :26:17. | :26:25. | |
night. Temperatures falling to a minimum of one Celsius. It will be | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
colder in rural areas. First thing tomorrow, there will be a line of | :26:29. | :26:34. | |
showers pushing from the south-west. They could affect the south of | :26:34. | :26:38. | |
Leicestershire. There is another line coming through during the | :26:38. | :26:45. | |
