Nearly 40% of teachers banned from the profession in Wales | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
in the last two years have been struck off for having | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
"inappropriate" relationships or conversations with pupils. | :00:20. | :00:22. | |
The figures were released by the Education Workforce Council | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
but teaching Unions say such behaviour is still an uncommon | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
Between August 2013 and August 2015, 62 teachers in Wales | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
were subject to disciplinary hearings and of those disciplined, | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
13 of them were struck off for having inappropriate | :00:43. | :00:45. | |
relationships or conversations with pupils in their charge. | :00:46. | :00:50. | |
The offences ranged from having a sexual relationship with a current | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
or former pupil, to sending inappropriate messages | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
or photographs via text, email or Skype. | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
Despite the seriousness of incidents like this, | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
the National Union of Teachers say it's still extremely uncommon. | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
When we actually delve into the figures, you do see this | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
is a very small number of teachers over a period of a few years. | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
It is by no means a common occurrence in our schools. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
It is by no means something that we see regularly at all. | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
That being said, of course, any accusation or concern should be | :01:20. | :01:23. | |
A child protection charity said the changing online environment | :01:24. | :01:29. | |
and social networking in recent years had introduced massive | :01:30. | :01:34. | |
challenges and risks for the teaching profession. | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
They say some staff get into trouble out of naivete rather than malice, | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
and believes schools must ensure adequate training is given | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
A 20-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing serious | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
injury by dangerous driving after four people were injured | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
in a crash in Neath Port Talbot in the early hours of this morning. | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
A 15-year-old girl remains in a serious but stable condition | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
following the incident which happened on the Neath Road | :02:03. | :02:04. | |
It's been confirmed that a man who died in a fire at a workshop | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
in Rhyl last week was the owner of the business. | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
Barrie Newton who was 71 and from Rhuddlan ran | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
North Wales Fire and Rescue Service say the blaze isn't being | :02:17. | :02:21. | |
Scientists in Swansea are hoping to be among the first in the world | :02:22. | :02:28. | |
to use 3D printing to reconstruct body parts for human transplant. | :02:29. | :02:33. | |
They're developing a process which turns human cells | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
into a structure which can be printed. | :02:37. | :02:38. | |
Originally, 3D printing recreated objects from plastic and metal. | :02:39. | :02:46. | |
But at Swansea University, they're developing a process | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
which allows biological structures to be | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
It could mean that in the future human body parts for | :02:52. | :02:55. | |
transplant may be grown in a laboratory. | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
We're trying to print biological structures that we can | :03:01. | :03:03. | |
put human cells on, and with the right environment | :03:04. | :03:07. | |
and with the right timing, it can grow into tissue that we can | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
actually eventually put into a human to reconstruct lost body parts, | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
such as parts of the nose, parts of the ear, and, | :03:16. | :03:18. | |
ultimately, larger and more complex body parts. | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
The first step is to take tiny amounts of cells | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
They are then incubated to help them to grow. | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
We are using a number of flasks and things to try | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
They are grown in a single layer culture to start with. | :03:32. | :03:39. | |
And then we can then, once we have enough cells, | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
take these cells out and combine it with the bio-ink | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
that we have in order to print them into shapes. | :03:45. | :03:48. | |
What we're doing is we are making a Jelly Baby. | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
The cells are made into jelly-like shapes | :03:53. | :03:54. | |
which have the right consistency to go into a 3D biological printer. | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
The printed shape is then transferred to | :03:59. | :04:00. | |
a specially built bioreactor which turns the jelly into tissue. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
We've got the ability to control the growth process. | :04:06. | :04:07. | |
It keeps them at a certain temperature, certain conditions, | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
The team have managed to print a structure | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
Their next challenge is to grow bigger tissues, | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
and then, eventually, to trial whether the tissues | :04:22. | :04:25. | |
A major road on Anglesey is to remain closed | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
following a landslide caused by this week's bad weather. | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
Anglesey Council says engineers are assessing the safety of the A545 | :04:34. | :04:38. | |
The Welsh Government says it's making ?1 million available to help | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
councils with immediate repairs and any maintenance needed to river | :04:44. | :04:47. | |
Tributes have been paid to the artist Ogwyn Davies who has | :04:48. | :04:53. | |
He studied at the Swansea School of Art and spent most of his adult | :04:54. | :04:58. | |
life living and working in Tregaron in Ceredigion. | :04:59. | :05:02. | |
Football, and Cardiff City will be hoping for three points | :05:03. | :05:05. | |
against Nottingham Forest this evening. | :05:06. | :05:07. | |
Russell Slade's side are four points off the top six after losing to MK | :05:08. | :05:10. | |
Now with the weather forecast for Wales here's Derek Brockway. | :05:11. | :05:18. | |
We enjoyed some dry weather and sunshine for a change today, | :05:19. | :05:21. | |
but more trouble is brewing over the Atlantic. | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
This massive cloud is a deepening area of low pressure | :05:25. | :05:27. | |
Now, Frank is heading towards Iceland. | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
But we are all in for another spell of wet and windy weather. | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
Met Office warnings in force for both wind and rain. | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
Yellow warnings in Wales, that means be aware. | :05:39. | :05:41. | |
In terms of rainfall, we are looking at another | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
More on higher ground, especially in the south, | :05:46. | :05:49. | |
Now, at the moment, there's just one flood | :05:50. | :05:58. | |
warning in force in the lower Dee Valley. | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
So, through this evening and tonight, more rain spreads | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
across the country, some heavy bursts of rain, | :06:04. | :06:05. | |
From the South, sever gales in parts of the new West and north-west. | :06:06. | :06:15. | |
Tomorrow, a wet and windy start, and wet start as well. | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
Some heavy rain, especially on the heels in the south. | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
During the afternoon, the wind will ease, the rain | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
will ease off as well but still some rainfall in the South and West. | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
Tomorrow evening, showery rain will spread north-west | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
A little snow likely in the mountains in the north. | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
And then for Thursday, New Year's Eve, a chilly | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
Heavy showers in places, accompanied by gusty winds. | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
New Year's Day will be dry, but it's not set to last. | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
There's more rain and strong winds on the way. | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
Don't forget, keep up-to-date with the forecast on the website. | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
That's Wales Today, thank you for watching from all of us | :06:48. | :06:55. | |
Basically, people have a chaotic lifestyle. They've built up many | :06:56. | :07:07. | |
problems over the years. This can lead to homelessness. It's a happy | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
festive season for Martin and his family this year. | :07:14. | :07:15. |
