:03:50. > :03:53.drive up standards in Suffolk, it seems many schools are still
:03:54. > :03:55.struggling to improve. According to Ofsted reports
:03:56. > :03:59.published between June and September,
:04:00. > :04:01.more than two`thirds of the schools Of the 40 schools, 12 are r`ted
:04:02. > :04:09.as good, 25 require improvelent good to needing to improve, with one
:04:10. > :04:18.primary in Haverhill dropping Two years ago,
:04:19. > :04:24.Suffolk County Council started its Raising The Bar campaign in response
:04:25. > :04:29.to poor education standards. When I spoke to Adrian Orr,
:04:30. > :04:32.who is responsible for learning and improvement, I put it to him
:04:33. > :04:35.that the bar does not seem to have Raising The Bar was always
:04:36. > :04:40.a long`term programme. It is a range of activities,
:04:41. > :04:43.it is not a single activity. It is about changing the culture
:04:44. > :04:46.in Suffolk. Although there is still work to do,
:04:47. > :04:49.we are seeing standards risd Our challenge, and the one that we
:04:50. > :04:55.face in the year ahead, is how we make the raising of standards
:04:56. > :04:58.consistent across all our schools. But I want to be really cle`r to
:04:59. > :05:01.parents who are listening to this, that
:05:02. > :05:05.the council is absolutely committed to ensuring that every child attends
:05:06. > :05:08.a good or outstanding school. I know that Raising The Bar says
:05:09. > :05:11.that every child should attdnd a good or outstanding school,
:05:12. > :05:15.but of the 40 schools that we looked at randomly `
:05:16. > :05:18.ones that had recent Ofsted reports ` 28 either required improvdment or
:05:19. > :05:23.were classed as inadequate. Some schools were inspected some
:05:24. > :05:28.years ago and had an Ofsted judgement
:05:29. > :05:31.of either good or outstanding under We recognise that with
:05:32. > :05:38.the increased rigor that Ofsted now brings, that schools that h`ve been
:05:39. > :05:41.inspected more recently may have While that is a challenge,
:05:42. > :05:46.it actually brings the degrde of focus, in terms of improvement,
:05:47. > :05:49.that we need to see. That is part
:05:50. > :05:52.of the improvement journey. It is much better that the school
:05:53. > :05:55.is aware of their position. It is better that the focus is
:05:56. > :05:58.on raising attainment. Ofsted
:05:59. > :06:00.and the county council together are But this improvement journex,
:06:01. > :06:03.as you put it, has been going on for two ydars
:06:04. > :06:07.and there isn't any improvelent In fact,
:06:08. > :06:09.you seem to be going backwards ` If we look at the performance
:06:10. > :06:16.at the early`years foundation stage, remembering that
:06:17. > :06:19.Raising The Bar is about chhldren of all ages, in the last ye`r we
:06:20. > :06:23.have seen a 10% increase in the If you look
:06:24. > :06:30.at the performance a key st`ge one, we have seen standards in rdading,
:06:31. > :06:34.writing, and mathematics improved. We have got some particular
:06:35. > :06:37.challenges around key stage two At key stage two we see somd schools
:06:38. > :06:41.and children making really significant gains,
:06:42. > :06:43.and others less so. We are very focused
:06:44. > :06:46.on key stage two. For the children at school
:06:47. > :06:50.at the moment every year When can you reassure parents
:06:51. > :06:56.and pupils that standards whll be I would want to reassure parents
:06:57. > :07:03.listening that all of the energies of the county council are
:07:04. > :07:08.entirely focused on this agdnda We know that things are improving,

:07:19. > :07:24.with the rest of the countrx, We are seeing year`on`year
:07:25. > :07:27.improvements. Our expectation is that
:07:28. > :07:30.by 2016`2017 will be at, Let's stay with education, because
:07:31. > :07:40.thousands of primary school children will have been offered a frde school
:07:41. > :07:43.meal from the start of this term. The Government has given ?6.8
:07:44. > :07:47.million to Norfolk, Suffolk and Essex for work to modify
:07:48. > :07:51.the buildings and create kitchens. Every school in Norfolk and Suffolk
:07:52. > :07:54.is now capable In Essex, the figure is 97% `
:07:55. > :08:14.with 10 schools still doing The first day of term and the first

:08:17. > :08:23.dining room and kitchen 's looked like at the school just two days
:08:24. > :08:29.before. It has been a tremendous effort. Until recently this was a
:08:30. > :08:35.classroom and now it is a ftlly functional kitchen that can feed up
:08:36. > :08:42.to 400 people. What is on the menu? Roast pork and stuffing. Do you like
:08:43. > :08:48.it? I like the carrots but H do not like those. The scramble to get
:08:49. > :08:53.kitchens ready in schools started when Nick Clegg announced that all
:08:54. > :08:58.children would be entitled to a free hot meal at lunch time. It hs good
:08:59. > :09:03.for the help and it is good for their education. That is whx we have
:09:04. > :09:10.funded this. At this primarx school, Nick Clegg's hot meal recipd went
:09:11. > :09:14.down well. It is a fantastic idea. It is good to know that the children
:09:15. > :09:22.are getting a hot meal. In ht sure every child is having something to
:09:23. > :09:25.eat every day. But in anothdr school, the children were still
:09:26. > :09:30.eating packed lunches. The head showed me his office with the new
:09:31. > :09:37.kitchen is going to go. This office is going to be turned into ` kitchen
:09:38. > :09:41.around half time. He believds that promising to provide hot me`l so
:09:42. > :09:45.soon was overambitious. I don't think they took into account the
:09:46. > :09:49.number of schools that do not have kitchens. I do not think thdy took
:09:50. > :09:53.into account the correct amount of money they would be required to
:09:54. > :09:56.convert and upgrade all of the kitchens in the country. Most
:09:57. > :09:59.schools in our region can now provide hot meals, but having
:10:00. > :10:03.working kitchens ready for the start of term has been a struggle.

:11:28. > :11:38.MPs who defected to UKIP was a great supporter of open primaries. The
:11:39. > :11:40.Conservatives will be able to argue that the candidate has been chosen

:12:53. > :12:56.care is different from in J`pan Everyone has to do the same thing at
:12:57. > :13:01.the same time and if someond does not want to do it someone is
:13:02. > :13:06.encouraged to do it. There hs no individuality. There is no
:13:07. > :13:11.individual interest. That is why I was impressed with the centre in
:13:12. > :13:18.Norwich. We have these imagds that help patients find their wax around
:13:19. > :13:24.the ward. As well as caring for dimensional patients, they `lso run
:13:25. > :13:28.workshops here for carers. The message is that every dementia

:13:33. > :13:42.looks after his wife workshops are invaluable. My mind is in a muddle

:13:54. > :13:57.coming here help you? We nedd people in a similar circumstance. H can
