The future of a special school in Gloucestershire | :00:46. | :00:47. | |
where all the children were removed in the summer is in doubt | :00:48. | :00:50. | |
after the council revealed ht's no longer financially viable. | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
A consultation starts on Monday on plans to close | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
Seperately, a number of investogations are ongoing | :00:56. | :00:58. | |
following concerns about thd safety of children in the school. | :00:59. | :01:00. | |
Here's our Gloucestershire reporter, Steve Knibbs. | :01:01. | :01:02. | |
Even before Ofsted published the results of its inspection | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
earlier this year, the council was told of worrying concerns. | :01:05. | :01:06. | |
Most notably, a high number of physical restraints being used | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
on pupils and a failure of the schools management | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
As a result, the County Council stepped in and removed the pupils | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
Tonight, I understand the headteacher and three | :01:17. | :01:20. | |
non-teaching members of staff have been suspended, | :01:21. | :01:23. | |
in as well as an interim bo`rd of governors after the orighnal | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
I want to be careful with what I say. | :01:29. | :01:44. | |
I don't want to prejudice an ongoing investigation. | :01:45. | :01:46. | |
There are clearly a number of concerns about children's safety. | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
There were no allegations made as far as I'm aware | :01:49. | :01:51. | |
regarding sexual abuse, I know that has been a rumotr | :01:52. | :01:53. | |
The council says that demand for Coln House has dropped | :01:54. | :01:59. | |
and they will not be able to keep it open. | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
That means the school will be making a crippling loss. | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
By 2018, 2019, we will have to find ?2.5 million to deal | :02:12. | :02:19. | |
Unions say they believe the council mishandled the removal | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
Teachers still at Coln Housd are being given extra | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
training and others are at placements in other schools. | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
The union accepts that the school won't be able to stay open. | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
Whilst we are saddened by the fact that it will probably mean | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
the loss of another school that's been popular... | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
served the needs of the community well, the casd | :02:44. | :02:45. | |
for the lack of financial viability is quite strong. | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
And I think it is fair to s`y that, having talked to members, | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
we're quite resigned to the fact that the most likely outcomd | :02:52. | :02:53. | |
All of the children removed from here in the summer | :02:54. | :03:01. | |
are now at other schools - it now seems increasingly lhkely | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
they'll become the last int`ke pupils to be taught at Coln House. | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
Supporters of a former Royal Marine from Somerset convicted of lurdering | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
an Afghan insurgent say del`ys in reviewing his case | :03:13. | :03:14. | |
Al Blackman - a former sergdant - is serving a life | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
Our Somerset correspondent Clinton Rogers has the latest. | :03:21. | :03:30. | |
Yeah, we came to the park with our sandwiches on one | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
For the past three years, Claire Blackman has been calpaigning | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
She was heartened when the Criminal Cases Review Commission dechded | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
to take a fresh look at his case, but that was almost a year `go. | :03:45. | :03:50. | |
We were mindful that, you know, it wasn't going to be a quick | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
process and we obviously want them to do a truly thorough job | :03:55. | :03:59. | |
We want to have confidence in the decision when they rdach it. | :04:00. | :04:05. | |
But, that said, you know, this is another ten months that Al's | :04:06. | :04:11. | |
not home and the waiting is the hardest part. | :04:12. | :04:20. | |
In 2013, former Sergeant Al Blackman became the first | :04:21. | :04:22. | |
British serviceman to be convicted of murder on the battlefield | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
His life sentence was for shooting a wounded insurgent in Afgh`nistan. | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
His action and his words le`ding up to it were captured | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
But his supporters, who havd very publicly campaigned for his release | :04:33. | :04:45. | |
- this, the last time they took their protest | :04:46. | :04:47. | |
to the streets of London - say he has been harshly | :04:48. | :04:50. | |
treated for a moment of madness on the battlefield. | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
Among them, the best-selling author, Frederick Forsyth, who is hhghly | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
critical of the body reviewing the case. | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
They were given flat instructions that this | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
was to be a level one, meaning immediate, case with total | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
Since then, both the defendhng barrister, who is one of thd best | :05:06. | :05:13. | |
defending barristers at the defending bar, | :05:14. | :05:15. | |
and others around the case have been bewildered by the fact | :05:16. | :05:17. | |
Very, very slowly passing the documents from desk | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
The commission says the criticisms are unfair. | :05:22. | :05:30. | |
It is treating the case as a priority. | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
But it is a complex one with a large volume of written | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
One of the main platforms for an appeal now is that the lesser | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
charge of manslaughter on the grounds of diminished | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
responsibility was never considered at the original court marsh`l. | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
A decision on that, whenever it is, will determine how much longer | :05:48. | :05:50. | |
the former Royal Marine will spend in Wiltshire's Erlestoke Prhson | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
His wife says the campaign to free him will continue. | :05:56. | :06:06. | |
The north-east Somerset MP Jacob Rees-Mogg has sharply | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
criticised US presidential candidate Donald Trump. | :06:11. | :06:11. | |
This evening, he's been delivering a lecture | :06:12. | :06:13. | |
He'd surprised many a few weeks ago when he said | :06:14. | :06:21. | |
he would vote for the Republican if he was American. | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
However, Jacob Rees-Mogg sahd recent revelations about Donald Trtmp's | :06:24. | :06:25. | |
treatment of women meant he could not now support hil. | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
A man wanted in connection with a fraud case in Bath is now | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
Mark Acklom, who is 43, is accused of disappearing | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
with more than three quarters of a million pounds. | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
The money was lent to him by a woman he was in | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
Mr Acklom has now appeared on a list of ten most wanted Britons hn Spain. | :06:44. | :06:54. | |
Chris Grayling has announced a multi-million pound motorwax | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
improvements programme for the south-west. It includes ?5 lillion | :06:58. | :07:03. | |
for work on the M4 and Swindon, due to start in 2018. Three quarters of | :07:04. | :07:09. | |
a million for improvements on the M5 as well. | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
It's been a big night for rugby fans in the West, | :07:12. | :07:19. | |
It was their for the first game in seven years. | :07:20. | :07:28. | |
And our sports editor Alist`ir Durden is at the Rec for us. | :07:29. | :07:30. | |
This game not go down as ond of the Bath and Bristol Classics. @fter | :07:31. | :07:37. | |
such a long absence from thd fixture list, it was tense rather than | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
explosive. Of course, neithdr of the club selected their first choice 15 | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
for the important Premiershhp matches coming up. -- because of the | :07:47. | :07:50. | |
important Premiership matchds coming up. Rhys Priestland kicked this to | :07:51. | :07:59. | |
keep the site in Italian sttbble -- interval. | :08:00. | :08:04. | |
The game really desperately needed a try. In a last minute, we got one. | :08:05. | :08:11. | |
Bristol lost the ball deep hnside Bristol lost the ball deep hnside | :08:12. | :08:16. | |
their own half. He splinted 70 metres to go in under the posts and | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
give Bath a more flattering margin of victory. | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Good performance by the boys but a great win against rivals. I will | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
take that. Bristol have been struggling. Confidence down. But I | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
expected more from Bath. I think they had a bad game today. They all | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
Bristol fans, so they will dnjoy that. Good result. It would've been | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
good if this have kick-started against Bath's beat him. I thought | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
we would annihilate them. Obviously, we didn't. Disappointed. But I | :08:49. | :08:55. | |
thought they tackled undefended particularly well. If we had scored | :08:56. | :09:01. | |
a try in a fast 5-10 minutes, could have been a different picture. - in | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
the first. The bragging rights belong to Bath. | :09:07. | :09:10. | |
After waiting seven years for this fixture, believe it or not, the next | :09:11. | :09:14. | |
one is only four-week subwax. Both clubs will be back here at the | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
Recreation Ground when they will be playing for Premiership points. | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
Radiohead have become the fhrst confirmed headline act | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
Rumours that the band would return to Worthy Farm began to circulate | :09:27. | :09:33. | |
yesterday when their logo appeared in the grass near the Pyramhd stage. | :09:34. | :09:35. | |
It's now been made official that they'll top the bill | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
That is it from us tonight. More news on the BBC website and on your | :09:39. | :09:50. | |
local BBC station where you are We're back with you tomorrow. For | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
now, good night. Now for thd forecast. Thank you. Good evening. | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
We have the makings of quitd chilly night. Let me to get through the | :10:00. | :10:05. | |
forecast for tomorrow. It. For some of you at least with a combhnation | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
of frost and patches of fog. It will take quite a bit of a morning for | :10:10. | :10:14. | |
that clear. Once that is colplete, it will be a dry day with bhts of | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
cloud and sunshine and light winds. Temperatures dropping quite sharply. | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
I expect some spots in the countryside, particularly in | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
Somerset, getting 21-3dC. The risk of frost about and equally, patches | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
of fog well. -- 1-3dC. The ledia show tonight, saying that tonight, | :10:37. | :10:45. | |
that is good news. But frost could be stubborn to clear tomorrow | :10:46. | :10:52. | |
morning. Light winds, varying cloud and sunshine tomorrow. Not dxpecting | :10:53. | :10:55. | |
any showers. Temperatures in a range of 11-13. Beyond that, drivd through | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
the rest of the weekend as well The breeze | :11:02. | :11:02. | |
The outlook, mostly dry for the next few days. Now the national outlook. | :11:03. | :11:10. | |
Good evening. We are likely to the all colours of the autumn, tomorrow, | :11:11. | :11:20. | |
fog could be an issue. Today, West has been best. Beautiful sunny | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
spells breaking through the cloud in western areas but running down | :11:24. | :11:26. | |
through North Sea coasts again, a frequent rash of showers. Some | :11:27. | :11:30. | |
coming further inland but look at this picture, a typical story of the | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
Norfolk coast this afternoon, choppy seas and rather threatening looking | :11:35. | :11:39. | |
skies. It stays breezy through the night here and showers die back | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
towards the Norfolk and Suffolk coast. Elsewhere, clear skies. We | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
could see a touch of frost and some sub -- stubborn fog patches in the | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
morning. In rural parts, temperatures could dip close to | :11:52. | :11:54. | |
freezing. It could be the fog that could be an issue first thing, it's | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
worth bearing in mind if you are on the roads early on. Particularly | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
favoured spots looked likely to be central and western areas. This time | :12:03. | :12:05. | |
of year it | :12:06. | :12:06. |
