:00:57. > :01:03.There's been lots of bad news in the post.
:01:04. > :01:05.The NHS has twice said "no" to funding an implant

:01:10. > :01:11.it could make the world of difference.
:01:12. > :01:13.It's basically like a little pacemaker that will be

:02:49. > :02:50.say they will look into this and maybe come up
:02:51. > :02:52.with a local policy. The bad news for Lynsay is that
:02:53. > :02:57.process is likely to take months. I gather now that her local MP
:02:58. > :03:00.is taking up this fight. That Gloria Del Piero,
:03:01. > :03:02.she is the MP for Ashfield She has written some letters

:03:40. > :03:50.but everybody who knows him, too, and our hearts go out to his wife,
:03:51. > :03:56.really, for this terrible loss. A new method of combating btllying

:04:00. > :04:04.and it encourages pupils to resolve Two colleges have been piloting
:04:05. > :04:09.the scheme for over a year and both have seen a dramathc
:04:10. > :04:12.improvement in behaviour. You both have to make sure that
:04:13. > :04:19.you allow the other person... At Charnwood College
:04:20. > :04:21.in Loughborough, they have dmbraced These are student volunteers who,
:04:22. > :04:25.over the past year, have brought bully and victhm
:04:26. > :04:28.together, made them reflect on their We don't say, go do this,
:04:29. > :04:34.go do that. We kind of guide them to cole
:04:35. > :04:38.to a decision by themselves. Instead of how it used to bd,
:04:39. > :04:42.saying, right you stay therd, you stay there
:04:43. > :04:45.and keeping them separate, you get them to work togethdr to
:04:46. > :04:48.come to a decision It feels a lot more normal talking
:04:49. > :04:53.to someone around your age, more than an older teacher
:04:54. > :04:58.because they understand a lot more The approach which has been used
:04:59. > :05:03.since the late '60s in Denm`rk This year we have seen a reduction
:05:04. > :05:10.in conflicts between students. We have seen a reduction in
:05:11. > :05:14.exclusions, down by 75% and attendance has been improved.
:05:15. > :05:19.It has been very successful. There has been
:05:20. > :05:21.a very positive impact of it. The culture of
:05:22. > :05:23.the school has completely changed. Staff are getting
:05:24. > :05:25.on better with students. Students are getting on better with
:05:26. > :05:28.students and sometimes parents will ask us to have
:05:29. > :05:31.a restorative meeting to be able to get on better
:05:32. > :05:33.with their children. We wanted the opportunity jtst
:05:34. > :05:37.to show you the website... Now with the help of an onlhne
:05:38. > :05:40.support pack, all schools across the city and county are being encouraged
:05:41. > :05:44.to introduce the new approach. Schools will need some
:05:45. > :05:46.support with their training. They won't be able
:05:47. > :05:49.to just go and do that. Schools will be able to look at
:05:50. > :05:52.and think, where should I start I'm interested in this and then
:05:53. > :05:54.they will have information on Inner`city Babington Collegd
:05:55. > :06:00.has piloted the scheme Bulling happens in all schools,
:06:01. > :06:05.it's a sad fact of life. I think what we have created
:06:06. > :06:08.and this helps us to create, is the philosophy that you talk
:06:09. > :06:11.about it, you talk about it, if it happens, you talk abott it,
:06:12. > :06:14.if you're thinking about dohng it, This, as I say,
:06:15. > :06:18.is not just about bullying, As the old adage goes, jaw`jaw
