:01:05. > :01:09.It impossible for me to be definitive about that. Some might be
:01:10. > :01:14.days, some might be weeks and some might be longer but I can't be
:01:15. > :01:16.certain. Most of Drummond high is a 100 years old but major work
:01:17. > :01:21.certain. Most of Drummond high is a done here ten years ago. All the
:01:22. > :01:23.students are back today but significant parts of the building
:01:24. > :01:28.are still closed off. Through there significant parts of the building
:01:29. > :01:32.is the gym hall. It's very strictly out of bounds. All students due to
:01:33. > :01:37.sit exams soon are now back at school. Some practical exams have
:01:38. > :01:43.been postponed. We'd hope the next three weeks would fully prepare our
:01:44. > :01:52.young people for the exams and any borderline cases, I'd hope it would

:02:33. > :02:37.controversial for schools but separate to this there is a question
:02:38. > :02:44.about council building control. It turns out the private business not
:02:45. > :02:50.the council signed the school. Depending on the type of contract,
:02:51. > :02:55.there might have been no requirement for the authority to carry out a

:03:01. > :03:04.will take time to answer. The youngsters here are lucky than many.

:04:55. > :04:56.weekend's Scottish Cup semi-finals has outlined how the terror attack
:04:57. > :05:00.on the Stade de France in Paris has BBC Scotland has been
:05:01. > :05:05.given access to the hub, from where security and safety
:05:06. > :05:17.will be co-ordinated. All quite now but by the weekend
:05:18. > :05:21.this Glasgow police station will be a hive of activity. This is where a
:05:22. > :05:25.massive security operation surrounding the Scottish Cup
:05:26. > :05:28.semifinals will be masterminded. Hampton said in might be the main
:05:29. > :05:33.focus but this operation takes on the rest of Glasgow and towns and
:05:34. > :05:37.cities all over the country. Factored into their safety strategy
:05:38. > :05:43.is a new element. The terror attack on the Stade de France means
:05:44. > :05:48.additional security is the norm. Glasgow police host events week in
:05:49. > :05:54.and week out and we have a proportional level of response
:05:55. > :06:00.there. The threat level is severe. We are alive to that. We have armed
:06:01. > :06:08.officers on duty. 365 days a year and 24-hour is a day to provide a
:06:09. > :06:12.response should we need to respond. It's not just the job of the police
:06:13. > :06:17.to ensure things go smoothly at the weekend. Inside the stadium, it is
:06:18. > :06:20.also the responsibility of Hampton Park Limited, their operation will
:06:21. > :06:24.be controlled from up inside the control room behind me to my right.
:06:25. > :06:29.That's where they will be monitoring fans to insure their safety, first
:06:30. > :06:33.and foremost, but also to keep an eye on any potential disorder. The

:06:41. > :06:45.Equally, police say offensive behaviour, including singing, will
:06:46. > :06:49.be dealt with, if not on the day, then retrospectively. Historically,
:06:50. > :06:55.Rangers versus Celtic games can be volatile. Players have been reminded
:06:56. > :06:59.of their responsibilities. Our words of advice forgotten in the heat of
:07:00. > :07:04.battle? It is common sense that it is also partly emotion, the
:07:05. > :07:08.excitement, and that is why you have to keep a level head when you are
:07:09. > :07:11.playing. The players have responsibility for themselves, to
:07:12. > :07:15.their team-mates, to the club, to the fans. Whatever you need to win,
:07:16. > :07:20.you'll do. Although there is plenty at stake, police are as keen as
:07:21. > :07:25.anyone for the post match headlines to be about first football. -- to be
:07:26. > :07:27.about the football. At the halfway point
:07:28. > :07:30.in the Holyrood election, jobs, wages and pensions have dominated

:07:52. > :07:55.in again in similar circumstances. If you want to have a First Minister
:07:56. > :07:59.and government that puts economic growth central to everything we do
:08:00. > :08:06.and is prepared to intervene to protect jobs and industries, that

:08:15. > :08:20.pensioners who are losing out on new came title and. They say better
:08:21. > :08:24.benefits can be paid for by growing a more highly skilled workforce. The
:08:25. > :08:27.only way we can bring high skilled these are jobs to Scotland is by
:08:28. > :08:32.investing in those skills which is why we are arguing to use the tax
:08:33. > :08:36.powers to invest more in education. To get ahead of the economic
:08:37. > :08:42.competition, the Conservatives in Hamilton say politicians need to
:08:43. > :08:45.make running a business easier. It's about tailored business support,
:08:46. > :08:50.keeping business rates low, freezing them until we get an overhaul, and
:08:51. > :08:55.not making Scotland the highest taxed part of the UK like the other
:08:56. > :09:01.parties want to do. In Dunfermline, the Liberal Democrats want no more
:09:02. > :09:05.tax to go to grants to firms that don't page the living wage and more
:09:06. > :09:09.investment in education. The biggest talent we have in this country is a
:09:10. > :09:13.skilled workforce. Education has suffered in recent years. We need to
:09:14. > :09:18.reverse that to get the workforce back to its best so we can have a
:09:19. > :09:19.vibrant economy. Different parties, different priorities for growing the
:09:20. > :09:21.economy. Hibernian manager Alan Stubbs
:09:22. > :09:23.insists there's no favourite ahead of Saturday's Scottish Cup semifinal
:09:24. > :09:25.match against Dundee United. Both sides have been struggling
:09:26. > :09:29.in their respective leagues lately, Hibs fighting for second
:09:30. > :09:31.in the Championship and United facing relegation
:09:32. > :09:35.from the Premiership, so who can come out on top
:09:36. > :09:37.at the National Stadium? Here's our senior Football Reporter
:09:38. > :09:48.Chris McLaughlin. There's been plenty of talk about
:09:49. > :09:52.the Hampton pitch which has just been relayed in the lead up to this
:09:53. > :09:58.weekend. Plenty of talk, too, about the Old Firm. Today, it's all about
:09:59. > :10:02.these two. The head-to-head has become something of a tradition. The
:10:03. > :10:06.two sides with a worrying Hampton history, it is the present that is
:10:07. > :10:12.causing concern. Princes Street in Edinburgh look like this the last
:10:13. > :10:18.time Hibs won the trophy in 1942. In 2016 they've won two matches in 11
:10:19. > :10:25.but... Form is temporary. Quality is permanent. And when you've got
:10:26. > :10:37.quality, it is just a matter of time before that comes back to the fore.
:10:38. > :10:43.They've remained defiant in the face of difficulties. This year has been
:10:44. > :10:49.really bad. The numbers that follow us away from home, the numbers
:10:50. > :10:54.regularly attending are great. They are vocal and they support the team.
:10:55. > :10:56.Looking at the form, you will say both will lose because they are in
:10:57. > :10:59.Looking at the form, you will say such a horrendous state. I was at
:11:00. > :11:06.Hibs the other night, they threw away their lead. We all know the
:11:07. > :11:09.kind of season Dundee United have had, so it is difficult to pick a
:11:10. > :11:13.winner. If one can shake of the past and current form, a final against
:11:14. > :11:15.Celtic or Rangers awaits. Well, it's over to the weather
:11:16. > :11:25.outlook for tonight and tomorrow. Good evening. We've had a reasonable
:11:26. > :11:29.day of weather but it is all change tonight into tomorrow morning. Some
:11:30. > :11:33.real wintry weather in the forecast and as a result the Met Office has
:11:34. > :11:39.issued a yellow be aware warning for some snow. More especially in the
:11:40. > :11:44.north of Scotland. Here is why. This cold front continues to push towards
:11:45. > :11:49.the north and behind that a cold northerly wind turning the rain to
:11:50. > :11:56.snow, more across the mountains and the high ground. Perhaps a of snow
:11:57. > :12:02.during the night to lower levels. Ice on roads. Temperatures had
:12:03. > :12:07.freezing. Tomorrow morning, that band of rain and sleet and snow
:12:08. > :12:11.sinking its way through central and southern Scotland through the day.
:12:12. > :12:15.Behind it tomorrow afternoon, more wintry showers feeding into the
:12:16. > :12:21.North a heavy, frequent showers with the odd rumble of thunder. Snow to
:12:22. > :12:25.lower levels, unlikely to settle by the hours of daylight with strong
:12:26. > :12:32.April sunshine melting these snow showers. It'll feel fairly cold with
:12:33. > :12:36.strong to gale force northerly wind. We will see some sleet and snow
:12:37. > :12:40.through central and southern areas, the snow largely a high ground
:12:41. > :12:45.future with tricky driving conditions. Across the UK, and
:12:46. > :12:48.improving picture across Northern Ireland. Some wet weather across
:12:49. > :12:53.northern England and some heavy downpours through is parts of
:12:54. > :12:57.southern and eastern England with the odd rumble of thunder. There is
:12:58. > :13:05.a temperature contrast with highs of 15 in London, some of us in Scotland
:13:06. > :13:10.struggling to reach five or six. For the evening period in Scotland, we
:13:11. > :13:14.lose the band of rain, sleet and snow, but there are wintry showers
:13:15. > :13:18.in the north, perhaps settling in the Highlands. Saturday, and
:13:19. > :13:20.improving picture. Largely dry and bright and staying cool. That is the
:13:21. > :13:21.forecast. Our next update is during Breakfast
:13:22. > :13:24.at 6:25am tomorrow morning. But, from everyone on the late team
