:21:35. > :21:38.For these children, attendance wasn't an issue today,
:21:39. > :21:41.all in the right uniform, according to school policy.
:21:42. > :21:45.But around 70 children have been sent home for the wrong uniform.
:21:46. > :21:49.Causing scenes of angry parents at the school gate.
:21:50. > :21:53.This is the second day at home for Kimberly Hopper.
:21:54. > :21:58.I'm very angry because I came in on Tuesday and was ready
:21:59. > :22:06.I then got given a letter and sent home.
:22:07. > :22:11.Now her father is considering moving her to another school entirely.
:22:12. > :22:14.My daughter was at school perfectly dressed, suitable for everything,
:22:15. > :22:16.suitable for a day's worth of education.
:22:17. > :22:24.The school says some pupils have turned up wearing tracksuits
:22:25. > :22:28.and trainers that cost far more than school uniform.
:22:29. > :22:33.It's not about money, but raising expectations.
:22:34. > :22:37.At this school in Margate 75% of pupils failed
:22:38. > :22:42.The headteacher says adhering to a strict uniform code
:22:43. > :22:48.would raise standards, much needed in coastal towns.
:22:49. > :22:52.Can children not still succeed without the right uniform?
:22:53. > :22:54.Actually taking a stand where we say we care
:22:55. > :22:56.about you so much that even uniform, these things matter
:22:57. > :23:01.It makes sure children believe in themselves and in the school,
:23:02. > :23:07.However, this stance has taken us a huge step towards that.
:23:08. > :23:16.Pupils will continue to be turned away until standards are met.
:23:17. > :23:22.It's driven by social media - and it's taking the world by storm.
:23:23. > :23:25.Grime - a unique mash-up of musical influences - started in East London
:23:26. > :23:29.around 15 years ago, and is now more popular than ever.
:23:30. > :23:31.Tonight our correspondent Colleen Harris is at
:23:32. > :23:45.This is where it happens tonight, this is the rehearsal for the rated
:23:46. > :23:51.awards where the top people will be seeking recognition. Next week two
:23:52. > :23:56.of the biggest stars of grime will be up for the Mercury awards but the
:23:57. > :23:59.very appeal of the music is its independence, from corporations and
:24:00. > :24:04.the establishment, but it is still breaking through into mainstream
:24:05. > :24:07.territory and the world is taking notice.
:24:08. > :24:09.It's British, it's raw, it's from the streets.
:24:10. > :24:24.What punk was to rock, grime is to hip-hop.
:24:25. > :24:28.Less about champagne and fast cars, more about life on the margins.
:24:29. > :24:35.# That's not me, and it's shut down #.
:24:36. > :24:38.This home-grown scene has emerged without big record label backing
:24:39. > :24:47.and at times has been criticised for being too aggressive, too dark.
:24:48. > :24:50.But with Mercury award nominations for MCs Skepta and Kano,
:24:51. > :24:54.along with big brand sponsorships knocking on the door,
:24:55. > :25:27.She is one of the few female MCs and is from Birmingham.
:25:28. > :25:29.New artists in the scene have brought something very refreshing
:25:30. > :25:32.to the scene and people are like, grime is popping again,
:25:33. > :25:39.Social media is one of the best things that could have
:25:40. > :25:44.Or someone who wants to start writing.
:25:45. > :25:48.You pick up your phone and that is all your supporters
:25:49. > :25:56.How much has social media driven the movement of grime?
:25:57. > :26:00.I think grime has been very good at harnessing what digital
:26:01. > :26:02.media is and can be, and translating that not only
:26:03. > :26:07.into followers, but into ticket sales and album sales.
:26:08. > :26:15.For many on the underground scene, it's growth and appeal
:26:16. > :26:18.to new audiences has attracted commercial interest.
:26:19. > :26:21.The brands want to reach out to the people that these artists
:26:22. > :26:29.Obviously this is a very youthful audience.
:26:30. > :26:31.And naturally brands are going to love that
:26:32. > :26:33.and want to associate themselves with the music.
:26:34. > :26:41.They can get direct access to the consumer.
:26:42. > :26:43.This grimy sound, now shaping up to secure its place
:26:44. > :26:57.It is hot out there, the last day of summer? This could be the swansong
:26:58. > :27:08.of summer, but too early to call. It has been 30 in some places, the
:27:09. > :27:13.hottest day in Guernsey for more than 30 years. Things are about to
:27:14. > :27:18.change in terms of the feel of the weather, and this evening we have a
:27:19. > :27:21.weather front coming to western parts, more cloud and some rain for
:27:22. > :27:25.Northern Ireland and western Scotland, that could be quite heavy.
:27:26. > :27:32.Clearer skies ahead of that. One more warm and muggy like to come,
:27:33. > :27:34.because the weather front is changing and introducing cooler air
:27:35. > :27:40.from the Atlantic and we are losing the humidity. The feel of the muggy
:27:41. > :27:45.weather from the continent. The weather front moves through,
:27:46. > :27:49.outbreaks of rain mostly for Northern England and into Scotland,
:27:50. > :27:53.and further south the occasional spot, and then a few showers to
:27:54. > :27:56.Northern Ireland and western Scotland where it will be very
:27:57. > :28:04.windy. Breezy day for the Channel Islands. Not as hot tomorrow. For
:28:05. > :28:07.England and Wales mainly dry in the afternoon, and some good sunny
:28:08. > :28:15.spells and the fresher feel. Breezy and quite windy, the Irish sea,
:28:16. > :28:19.maybe gusts around 50 mph. Some rain moving north through the Northern
:28:20. > :28:23.Isles. Maybe some rain coming to western parts of the UK later.
:28:24. > :28:27.Friday we are left with a few showers and a more substantial
:28:28. > :28:30.weather system coming to Northern Ireland and western Scotland to end
:28:31. > :28:36.Friday and that means heavy rain again and stronger winds. And all of
:28:37. > :28:40.that is sweeping East across the UK and so we will all have a spell of
:28:41. > :28:44.heavy rain for time. We will keep you up-to-date regarding the weekend
:28:45. > :28:47.but it is looking decidedly mixed.
