:00:00. > 3:59:59on the BBC News Channel and I will be back with the late news at 1 pm.
:00:00. > :00:00.be back with the late news at 10pm. Now it is the time for all the news
:00:00. > :00:20.where you are. Goodbye for now. Good evening. The victim of a
:00:21. > :00:24.violent burglary, who has been left with serious facial injuries has
:00:25. > :00:28.told BBC London when he looks back at last week's attack at his home in
:00:29. > :00:35.Wimbledon, when he fought for his life, he feels more terrified than
:00:36. > :00:37.he was at the time. University of London lecturer, Paul Kohler was
:00:38. > :00:39.speaking to our reporter. London lecturer, Paul Kohler was
:00:40. > :00:43.speaking to our A warning - you may find some of the images in this
:00:44. > :00:48.report upsetting. At the time they thought my skull was fractured it
:00:49. > :00:52.swelled up. And my jaw was fractured. When the swelling came
:00:53. > :00:58.down my eye socket was fractured. I cannot look to the left properly. If
:00:59. > :01:03.I try and look to the left I get double vision. Paul's face is hardly
:01:04. > :01:08.recognisable, six days on from a violent burglary. 10pm on Monday he
:01:09. > :01:14.answered the door to four men. He was battered and his wife
:01:15. > :01:19.threatened. His daughter and boyfriend killed the police. It is
:01:20. > :01:23.more terrifying now I look back on it than at the time because you are
:01:24. > :01:27.so stunned, there is a sense of bewilderment and you almost stand
:01:28. > :01:32.outside of it and look as though it is a gangster movie. Two men have
:01:33. > :01:37.been charged with GBH and burglary. The police are looking for two
:01:38. > :01:41.suspects, male, believed to be Eastern European and aged between
:01:42. > :01:48.20-30. They want to speak to anyone who saw a two door silver vaux
:01:49. > :01:54.wagon, with I they believe the suspects used. These CCTV images
:01:55. > :01:58.show one of the suspects going through Wimbledon theatre car park
:01:59. > :02:04.and removing surgical gloves. Paul says anyone who knows anything
:02:05. > :02:08.should come forward. There will be repair work done, hopefully next
:02:09. > :02:09.week. They will repair the eye socket.
:02:10. > :02:10.week. They will repair the eye socket I
:02:11. > :02:16.They will repair the eye socket. I think I will make a full recovery
:02:17. > :02:21.and I would say worst things have happened to people. I am very, very
:02:22. > :02:25.lucky. I really am. That is the point. It could have been worse - I
:02:26. > :02:30.could have lost my sight. This attack which lasted minutes will
:02:31. > :02:36.have a long-term impact on Paul and his family's lives.
:02:37. > :02:41.Britain's first specialist clinic for child victims of female againal
:02:42. > :02:45.mutilation will open next month. It mutilation will open next month It
:02:46. > :02:48.will be at University College London and provide medical and
:02:49. > :02:52.psychological treatment to girls. Doctors will carry out examinations
:02:53. > :02:57.if the police are not sure if mutilation has occurred.
:02:58. > :03:02.Just days after A level results day, there are calls for apprenticeship
:03:03. > :03:06.to be given the same importance as going to university. In London the
:03:07. > :03:09.number of people getting apprenticeships has doubled in
:03:10. > :03:14.recent years. Some say schools need to be doing more.
:03:15. > :03:20.Jack gained eight A levels. You might think a top university
:03:21. > :03:24.beckoned, but he choose the apprenticeship route. He feels this
:03:25. > :03:29.could work well for plenty of school leavers. For jobs such as medicine,
:03:30. > :03:35.the knowledge you gain at university is crucial. I feel there is not many
:03:36. > :03:39.alternatives for that. However, for a people-based business role, where
:03:40. > :03:44.you are working lots of groups, working to deliver items, then you
:03:45. > :03:49.can learn on the job - I feel something like an apprenticeship can
:03:50. > :04:03.offer a great experience. The mayor has made it a priority. A target was
:04:04. > :04:08.of taken hold of. Some are pushing for the creation of a clearing
:04:09. > :04:13.system, like with university places. This buddingal lant pool is becoming
:04:14. > :04:17.vital for London's economy. It is vital. They can learn at the same
:04:18. > :04:22.time so they don't end up with a massive debt. We are crying out for
:04:23. > :04:26.skilled trade people. It is a good route to do it. They are getting a
:04:27. > :04:34.job, a qualification along the way and often end up running their own
:04:35. > :04:40.business. Like Tim He was the winner of the first series of the
:04:41. > :04:44.Apprenticeship. He feels progress is being made. Employers on the whole
:04:45. > :04:49.respect and value these roles. He would like to see schools ins r
:04:50. > :04:54.incense tiez to better promote this option. At the moment, a very small
:04:55. > :04:58.margin of success, is does a young person go on to a university place?
:04:59. > :05:03.That is a tick in the box. If you want to go out and work, you are not
:05:04. > :05:06.seen as a success criteria for a school. That has to change. They are
:05:07. > :05:11.now available in a range of industries. Growing numbers are
:05:12. > :05:16.learning university is far from the only way to get ahead.
:05:17. > :05:22.Women suffer from depression are being encouraged to attend a trapeze
:05:23. > :05:28.exercise class in south London to help manage their symptoms. Building
:05:29. > :05:31.physical strength can help improve mental health. I think for the
:05:32. > :05:35.people who already had kind of depression issues, they find it so
:05:36. > :05:41.hard. When they start to get it together, their moods change. They
:05:42. > :05:45.become a nice tight-knit group. They work well together. It lightens
:05:46. > :05:47.their mood. They feel better about thementsss.
:05:48. > :05:57.We should have a dry morning tomorrow. Temperature will be the
:05:58. > :05:58.same as today. Have a good evening.
:05:59. > :06:12.Good evening. It was a slow start for England and Wales. We got there
:06:13. > :06:17.in the end today. A cloudy morning, with some outbreaks of rain. As that
:06:18. > :06:21.weather front sank south, breaks in the cloud developed. Different
:06:22. > :06:27.further north - it stayed windy and wet, with showers and longer spells
:06:28. > :06:33.of rain at times. That low area of pressure drifts off to the east A
:06:34. > :06:36.few showers drifting further south, inWales and northern England.
:06:37. > :06:40.The strongest of the winds first thing tomorrow morning across the
:06:41. > :06:47.far north-east of Scotland. Rough seas. Hopefully fewer showers than
:06:48. > :06:51.we have seen today. A cloudy start and we run the risk of a few showers
:06:52. > :06:53.through Wales, the Midlands,
