:03:58. > :04:00.how the majority of senior jobs go to those from private schools

:04:01. > :04:06.and Oxbridge graduates. But the Business Secretary,

:04:07. > :04:13.Vince Cable, says there's no reason why London state pupils

:04:14. > :04:17.can't access the capital's top jobs. They are the engines

:04:18. > :04:21.that drive Britain, London's seats of power

:04:22. > :04:24.and influence. Within a few Tube stops of lost

:04:25. > :04:29.of us, but open to so very few. This is some way

:04:30. > :04:32.from the corridors of power, but there's no lack of ambition

:04:33. > :04:34.here. It's not often that one of

:04:35. > :04:37.Britain's highest profile scientists but in the lab,

:04:38. > :04:41.even the brightest of pupils The people that do get into Oxbridge

:04:42. > :04:48.have a lot more opportunities than maybe we would have, although

:04:49. > :04:51.we have a lot of opportunithes, But when you go to a privatd school,

:04:52. > :04:56.you do get a lot more, there's no point

:04:57. > :04:58.in saying its equal. 80% of pupils here at Saint Paul's

:04:59. > :05:01.Way Trust School in Tower Hamlets qualify for free school meals,

:05:02. > :05:05.but every student in the sixth form has been given an offer

:05:06. > :05:07.of higher education, including one to read medichne

:05:08. > :05:10.at Oxford. London has a better track rdcord

:05:11. > :05:13.than most places in the UK for sending children from disadvantaged

:05:14. > :05:18.backgrounds to university, but if you are born

:05:19. > :05:21.in a tough corner of the capital, what chance do you really have

:05:22. > :05:25.of joining the elite? In 2011, more than 1200 puphls

:05:26. > :05:28.from London went to study at Oxford

:05:29. > :05:31.or Cambridge. 380 came from state schools,

:05:32. > :05:34.and among those the number getting free school meals w`s 2 `

:05:35. > :05:39.that's 1.6% of the total. Let's say you are growing up

:05:40. > :05:41.in Tower Hamlets and looking at Westminster

:05:42. > :05:44.or the Royal Courts of Justice, you think, it is on my doorstep

:05:45. > :05:47.but I'm never going to get there. I think what we are seeing

:05:48. > :05:52.in schools like St Paul's W`y here is we are taking some of thd most

:05:53. > :05:56.deprived communities in the UK. The potential is there, we see it

:05:57. > :05:59.happening, but you are right, we do have a problem

:06:00. > :06:02.with social mobility in the UK. You can have excellent schools

:06:03. > :06:08.that take students in their local community,

:06:09. > :06:11.educate them to the highest level, and then eventually it is obvious

:06:12. > :06:15.that that elitism will break down. our institutions don't represent

:06:16. > :06:20.the people they serve and only a change in this

:06:21. > :06:23.will fuel London's long`term future. but let's find out what the

:06:24. > :06:42.weather's up to with Stav Danaos. It was lovely and noticeablx warmer,

:06:43. > :06:50.a top temperature of 23 degrees in the capital.

:06:51. > :06:55.A milder night than recently, double figures for most places. Tolorrow

:06:56. > :06:58.figures for most places. Tomorrow looks breezy but with good spells of

:06:59. > :07:18.sunshine around. High`pressure to the south, low

:07:19. > :07:20.pressure to the north, this weather front will bring outbreaks of rain

:07:21. > :07:25.during Friday night into thd first during Friday night into thd first

:07:30. > :07:38.pushing from the north`west, a top temperature of 22 degrees.

:07:39. > :07:46.Hello! We had a touch of autumn in August, now we are hoping for a bit

:07:47. > :07:49.of summer in September, both as a result of former Hurricanes. It was

:07:50. > :07:55.Hurricane Bertha that brought cold air a week or two ago, now we have

:07:56. > :07:59.another later in the week moving into the Atlantic, but it is going

:08:00. > :08:03.to take a more northerly track, picking up this warm, subtropical

:08:04. > :08:07.air, pushing it across the Atlantic, hopefully arriving on our shores,

:08:08. > :08:13.something warmer, drier and sunnier for most of us for the first week of

:08:14. > :08:17.September. Tonight, actually, fairly mild for most, quite a breezy night,

:08:18. > :08:21.blustery across many north-western parts around this area of low

:08:22. > :08:24.pressure, touching near gale force through the Irish Sea. Heavy rain
