:21:20. > :21:21.while others are passing the costs onto the schools themselves.
:21:22. > :21:24.Here's our education correspondent Alex Forsyth.
:21:25. > :21:31.It is said there is no such thing as a free lunch. That is true, in
:21:32. > :21:36.Kettering, in Northamptonshire. Like all schools in England it has two
:21:37. > :21:39.provide meals for all infant pupils from September. The Department for
:21:40. > :21:43.Education has provided funding, but this school, like some others, is
:21:44. > :21:48.having to find extra money for things like more staff to supervise
:21:49. > :21:57.children with hot food. It will cost around ?8,500 per year. It would
:21:58. > :22:01.translate into art resources, more resources, history and geography,
:22:02. > :22:04.you name it, that is the kind of money we would expect to be spending
:22:05. > :22:10.on curriculum resources over one year. Money is not the only issue,
:22:11. > :22:15.most teachers like the idea of providing healthy lunches, but there
:22:16. > :22:18.are some practical problems. Around 40 children in the school currently
:22:19. > :22:23.have hot meals, but from September there will be more than 300. They
:22:24. > :22:25.are having to use the school hall instead of serving sandwiches in
:22:26. > :22:32.classrooms, which leaves less time for other things like PE. But pilot
:22:33. > :22:35.areas which have trialled the scheme say it can work well, here in London
:22:36. > :22:44.every child already gets lunch provided, and it is popular. I like
:22:45. > :22:53.the school dinner. The deserts are very nice. They are really nice.
:22:54. > :22:56.It's really tasty. Rolling out free dinners across the country was an
:22:57. > :23:00.idea from the Liberal Democrats, today the schools minister said it
:23:01. > :23:05.is on track. I am confident we have funded this sufficiently, and well.
:23:06. > :23:08.Many people on the revenue funding have been saying they think the
:23:09. > :23:13.allocations we have made our generous, they will fund this
:23:14. > :23:19.easily. We have made a massive allocation of capital to improve
:23:20. > :23:22.school kitchens. Healthy meals are good for attainment and well-being,
:23:23. > :23:24.and most schools say they will offer one by September although for some,
:23:25. > :23:31.it is a challenge. A week today the opening ceremony
:23:32. > :23:33.of the Commonwealth Games will take place in Glasgow and
:23:34. > :23:36.for the team captain of Wales it will be a very proud moment.
:23:37. > :23:38.Paralympic discus thrower Aled Davies, who won two golds
:23:39. > :23:40.in London, will lead out his team and our reporter Kate Grey
:23:41. > :23:51.went to Cardiff to meet him. I can do this when it matters at the
:23:52. > :23:56.right time, I want to do it when it matters. Not just in training. I
:23:57. > :24:07.have the aspirations of bringing home the gold medal. Can he go
:24:08. > :24:11.further? Aled Davies was born with disabilities but he shot to fame in
:24:12. > :24:16.London 2012 with his gold medal winning throw and the memorable
:24:17. > :24:21.celebrations. Every emotion you can imagine came out, I won the gold
:24:22. > :24:25.medal, it was like a relief. The eight years of hard work and the ups
:24:26. > :24:28.and downs and the emotional roller-coaster it had been had paid
:24:29. > :24:34.off. I wanted to go mad. Running around like a wild animal. Becoming
:24:35. > :24:36.Paralympic champion has been the highlight of his career but
:24:37. > :24:43.competing for Wales at the Commonwealth Games has a special
:24:44. > :24:50.meaning. Howdy you feel when you put this on? I feel patriotic, I want to
:24:51. > :24:55.sing and go coal-mining. It is very special. Not taking away from Great
:24:56. > :24:59.Britain, I love Great Britain, but there is a lot more heart when it
:25:00. > :25:05.comes to Wales. This is an attitude he will be hoping to pass on to his
:25:06. > :25:09.team-mates as captain. Leading a 230 strong Welsh squad, a great honour
:25:10. > :25:14.and responsibility for the boy from Bridgend. It makes a great
:25:15. > :25:19.statement, to have Paralympic athlete as a captain, London was a
:25:20. > :25:24.stepping stone. We are still a long way from being equal. We are heading
:25:25. > :25:29.in the right direction. I train between 6-8 hours every day. It is a
:25:30. > :25:32.gruelling schedule but he still finds time to promote Paralympic
:25:33. > :25:37.sport and inspire the stars of the future. What are these events mean
:25:38. > :25:42.to you? This is where the champions of tomorrow are made. I love
:25:43. > :25:46.inspiring and giving back. If I can come here and inspire some children
:25:47. > :25:50.I feel like the job is done. He might relish being a role model but
:25:51. > :25:55.what matters the most is glory at the Glasgow games. I want to deliver
:25:56. > :25:59.performance that I can be proud of and everybody else can be proud of.
:26:00. > :26:01.Hopefully they can feed off it and see, this is how we do it. Time to
:26:02. > :26:06.put Wales on the map. went to Cardiff to meet him.
:26:07. > :26:09.Kate Grey talking to Aled Davies. Tomorrow we hear from our final
:26:10. > :26:14.athlete in the series, Northern Ireland boxer Alanna Audley-Murphy.
:26:15. > :26:22.Let's take a look at the weather, we were hearing about the heatwave, it
:26:23. > :26:27.will get very hot on Friday. Yes, Friday, we could smash 30 degrees
:26:28. > :26:29.for the first time this year. It's not just about the daytime
:26:30. > :26:35.temperature, night-time as well, very warm night. It will go bang
:26:36. > :26:43.with the thunderstorms on Saturday. More in a moment, hot weather talk
:26:44. > :26:46.is a little bit premature because today, it has been quite cloudy and
:26:47. > :26:52.cool. Providing quite a few showers across Scotland and northern England
:26:53. > :26:55.and Wales. This area of rain is moving south but it is fizzling out
:26:56. > :26:59.across to East Anglia and the Southeast. For most places it will
:27:00. > :27:05.be dry with some scattered showers in the North West. It will be a
:27:06. > :27:11.comfortable night the many places, temperatures 13-14. In the south it
:27:12. > :27:13.will be warm or humid, 17-18?. In the south it will be
:27:14. > :27:18.will be warm or humid, 17-18?. In morning. We could get some misty
:27:19. > :27:23.conditions in the south coast. For most places it will be a fine summer
:27:24. > :27:26.conditions in the south coast. For western Scotland but most places
:27:27. > :27:27.will see sunshine. It will be warmer, Glasgow will have
:27:28. > :27:31.will see sunshine. It will be degrees. Still a bit cool on some
:27:32. > :27:35.will see sunshine. It will be the North Sea coasts. Across
:27:36. > :27:39.northern England noticeably warm and bright with
:27:40. > :27:44.northern England noticeably warm and for Wales, 25, 20 6 degrees. Maybe
:27:45. > :27:54.cooler along the south coast. Inland, close to London, 27, 20 9
:27:55. > :27:57.degrees -- 25 or 26 degrees. Risk of the storms tomorrow night, pushing
:27:58. > :28:04.across western areas, they could be in the Liverpool area for the second
:28:05. > :28:08.day of the Open. Foremost, Friday is all about the heat. That is when we
:28:09. > :28:16.are likely to get 30-32 degrees. Cooler around the New York -- the
:28:17. > :28:20.coasts in the North. And then, the heat will cause problems, Saturday
:28:21. > :28:24.and Sunday we could have thunderstorms, potentially violent
:28:25. > :28:35.storms. The message is to stay tuned, it could cause problems from
:28:36. > :28:39.Friday and into Saturday. A massive police operation across the UK has
:28:40. > :28:42.resulted in the arrest of up to 600 suspected paedophiles.
