:00:15. > :00:18.We just know that some of us have got to go
:00:19. > :00:20.and it is very upsetting, very, very upsetting.
:00:21. > :00:29...that will see plain-clothes police targeting those driving
:00:30. > :00:37.Plus, the new bereavement centre set up by Martin and Carly in memory
:00:38. > :00:42.And spring has finally sprung, and if you don't believe me,
:00:43. > :01:08.take a look at this lot, there are thousands of them!
:01:09. > :01:10.Good evening and welcome to Monday's programme
:01:11. > :01:12.with Maurice Flynn and me, Geeta Pendse.
:01:13. > :01:14.First tonight, further evidence of the increasing
:01:15. > :01:16.Derbyshire's largest primary has issued redundancy notices
:01:17. > :01:18.to its teaching assistants because of a funding crisis.
:01:19. > :01:21.Hilton Primary says it needs to close a third of the posts.
:01:22. > :01:25.Leaders at the school say it's a disaster but insist there's
:01:26. > :01:29.Head teachers say they continue to face rising costs and unfair
:01:30. > :01:31.funding despite the government saying education spending
:01:32. > :01:41.Jill Radcliffe is one of 40 teaching assistants working
:01:42. > :01:47.A budget shortfall of ?120,000 means that she and her colleagues have
:01:48. > :01:54.been issued with redundancy notices to cut their number by 13.
:01:55. > :01:56.There is no words, just somebody has got to go
:01:57. > :02:00.and we are more than friends, you know, it is like a family here.
:02:01. > :02:03.So everyone is in the same boat and we just know that some of us
:02:04. > :02:10.It's very upsetting, very, very upsetting.
:02:11. > :02:14.With 850 pupils, Hilton Primary is one of the largest in the country.
:02:15. > :02:18.Its annual budget is ?2.6 million but each pupil receives less
:02:19. > :02:24.For the past two years the county council has helped with contingency
:02:25. > :02:27.funds and this year it is providing an extra ?100,000, but it is not
:02:28. > :02:35.At the end of the day, our children deserve the same
:02:36. > :02:37.opportunities as every other child in Derbyshire, yet receive ?800
:02:38. > :02:42.less per pupil than your typical Derbyshire child.
:02:43. > :02:47.And for us, that is a shortfall of ?500,000 a year.
:02:48. > :02:49.We have had an extra ?100,000 from the local authority
:02:50. > :02:53.and we are incredibly grateful for it, but in reality,
:02:54. > :02:56.that makes up only slightly the shortfall and still leaves us
:02:57. > :03:17.In a statement, Derbyshire County Council said...
:03:18. > :03:20.The elastic now is stretched as far as it's going to stretch and losing
:03:21. > :03:26.these TAs is a disaster, it really is a disaster and it seems
:03:27. > :03:29.utterly unfair that children will walk through our gate
:03:30. > :03:32.in the morning and get less spent on them than any other
:03:33. > :03:37.It is a bit cold in here today, isn't it?
:03:38. > :03:40.Well, that's because the heating is off because we are saving money.
:03:41. > :03:43.Staff who are losing their jobs will be notified in May
:03:44. > :03:44.and compulsively redundancies cannot be ruled out.
:03:45. > :03:49.Quentin Rayner, EBC East Midlands Today, Hilton.
:03:50. > :03:52.The school has lobbied their local MP Heather Wheeler for more funding,
:03:53. > :03:55.and earlier I asked her if anything could be done to stop
:03:56. > :04:04.There are ongoing conversations with Derbyshire County Council.
:04:05. > :04:09.This is all to do with why Hilton Primary, a primary pupil
:04:10. > :04:14.there is worth ?3090 a head, whereas a primary pupil
:04:15. > :04:16.somewhere else in Derbyshire is worth ?3900 a head,
:04:17. > :04:18.and this is what Derbyshire County Council need to actually
:04:19. > :04:24.But Derbyshire County Council do say that government allocations have not
:04:25. > :04:32.I mean, are their hands not being tied a little bit as well?
:04:33. > :04:35.No, the Department for Education will tell you that education
:04:36. > :04:37.for schools has been ring-fenced and every single penny has been
:04:38. > :04:47.So it is about on-costs, I do appreciate that,
:04:48. > :04:51.but the funding has been there, it has not been cut
:04:52. > :04:53.by the government to Derbyshire County Council for schools.
:04:54. > :04:55.And, of course, there is the proposed funding formula...
:04:56. > :04:59.This school would benefit by about ?200,000 a year.
:05:00. > :05:02.Now, Tory backbenchers are essentially threatening
:05:03. > :05:10.putting this on hold, what do you make of this?
:05:11. > :05:14.Certainly backbenchers who have small rural schools have found that
:05:15. > :05:17.at certain times the funding formula will not help them.
:05:18. > :05:20.In South Derbyshire, out of my 40 schools,
:05:21. > :05:24.30 would improve or stay the same and ten would lose, so no
:05:25. > :05:27.doubt I am going to be getting letters from those.
:05:28. > :05:30.So it is quite right that the consultation period is only
:05:31. > :05:33.just finished and Justine Greening needs to look at the whole formula.
:05:34. > :05:36.The whole point of this was to make sure that schools like Hilton
:05:37. > :05:39.actually increased in their funding and we had fair funding
:05:40. > :05:44.OK, Heather Wheeler, thank you very much.
:05:45. > :05:46.Leicestershire Police plan to use plain-clothed officers on bikes
:05:47. > :05:50.to target motorists who drive too close to cyclists
:05:51. > :05:53.The scheme has been backed by one particular cyclist,
:05:54. > :05:56.who says close passes are an almost daily experience
:05:57. > :06:16.Too often you will have a car fly right pasture without any
:06:17. > :06:19.consideration. It is not anger, it is adrenaline that hits you. You
:06:20. > :06:25.have just been skinned by a hard motor vehicle. This man cycles 500
:06:26. > :06:31.miles a day. He records his journey on his helmet camera. A person on a

:07:19. > :07:20.survey has shown that the reason that people do not cycle is

:12:08. > :12:09.reviewing one of their "risk assessment" forms after it sparked
:12:10. > :12:11.a racism row. The claim has come from music
:12:12. > :12:14.promoters who say other forces are using the system to unfairly ban
:12:15. > :12:16.rappers and grime It's fast tempo, it's high

:12:33. > :12:36.that this genre of music is being unfairly targeted
:12:37. > :12:38.by the police, who ask for a specific risk assessment
:12:39. > :12:44.form to be filled in. In my experience, when it's
:12:45. > :12:46.normally a night where it's predominantly black people,
:12:47. > :12:51.without fail, the form comes out This is the form used
:12:52. > :12:54.by Leicestershire Police which specifically asks questions
:12:55. > :12:56.about ethnicity of the audience. Event organisers
:12:57. > :13:05.claim that is racist. Our social affairs correspondent,

:13:15. > :13:21.in Nottingham, where there were armed police with sniffer dogs
:13:22. > :13:24.and metal detecting arches, and that And there's a real concern that it's
:13:25. > :13:30.led to a blanket ban Because grime's become
:13:31. > :13:36.much more mainstream. And most of those artists we saw
:13:37. > :13:42.in Sarah's report have played here in the East Midlands
:13:43. > :13:46.without any trouble at all. Now Leicestershire Police told
:13:47. > :13:48.us they don't believe But a form that links

:16:13. > :16:16.has changed and you have to come for counselling or to see a consultant,

:18:32. > :18:37.form at the moment, 14 games, 24 points, that is promotion form. You
:18:38. > :18:40.had that win at Wycombe, what has changed? How have you done? In
:18:41. > :18:46.number of things, being able to put my own stamp on the team right away,
:18:47. > :18:51.rather than... Alan has backed me 110% and also the players have
:18:52. > :18:56.bought into it. That is the biggest thing, they have bought into what we

:19:31. > :19:35.everything, you are a numbing boss, everything, you are a numbing boss,
:19:36. > :19:38.do you think that fits in with the football club? People are people at
:19:39. > :19:43.the end of the day, you have a group of people who have a desire to be
:19:44. > :19:47.successful. When you give them a vision and a jolly to go on, they
:19:48. > :19:51.will buy into it, you can create special things. Finally, talking

:19:56. > :19:59.game and Europe throwing yourself into a growing's arms, will be
:20:00. > :20:03.showing it. You have played at Premier League level and scored lots
:20:04. > :20:07.of goals, how have you retained that passion at this level. We have
:20:08. > :20:11.started to get a fortress mentality, it is broken. I love the game
