:12:32. > :12:36.to one of the most influential people in education. There is a very
:12:36. > :12:40.good chance you have never heard of him but he has a lot to say about
:12:40. > :12:46.education and what he says is heard at the very highest level.
:12:46. > :12:49.He is Theodore Agnew a man who has been instrumental in driving forward
:12:49. > :12:53.the change—over of hundreds of our schools into academies. And just
:12:53. > :12:57.look at the pace of change. The first academy opened in Northampton
:12:57. > :13:02.in 2004. We reckon a total of 550 schools in the region have converted
:13:02. > :13:12.to academy status since then. Today, a primary school in Lowestoft became
:13:12. > :13:16.our newest academy. Ray holders could not have faced a
:13:16. > :13:27.tougher challenge in his first post as headteacher . The only realistic
:13:27. > :13:33.option was to become an academy and one year on, the official opening.
:13:33. > :13:37.We have 180 children at the school, aged from nursery up to year six,
:13:37. > :13:41.and it is an amazing place to be with great teachers, rates parents
:13:41. > :13:46.and great children. We aren't excited about the future. It used to
:13:46. > :13:55.be a primary school but now there is a new name, a new uniform and a new
:13:56. > :14:00.teaching team. It is part of the active learning trust, based in
:14:00. > :14:07.Cambridge, and they already sponsor for schools. It does not matter what
:14:07. > :14:11.you call the school. It is what happens within the classroom that
:14:11. > :14:14.matters. If you as a headteacher are not completely in touch with what is
:14:14. > :14:24.happening in every classroom then you are not doing your job properly.
:14:24. > :14:31.They make it fun, it is not boring. They go, we are going to do some
:14:32. > :14:39.writing today. My teacher is quite fun. Lots more people are behaving
:14:39. > :14:49.in lessons now. They believed that stabilised teaching in new Morrissey
:14:49. > :14:53.is important. —— new Morrissey. How hard has it been? It has been a hard
:14:53. > :15:00.process. But what is great is that we are working with the Trust and
:15:00. > :15:05.they have wrought assistant to our school that is tailored to our
:15:05. > :15:11.needs. Ofsted is yet to give its verdict on progress but the team
:15:11. > :15:16.here are determined to sustain this progress. That was the picture in
:15:16. > :15:20.Lowestoft today. So let's find out a bit more about this education expert
:15:20. > :15:24.who is having such a big impact on our schools? Theodore Agnew is a
:15:24. > :15:29.wealthy man who has tried his hand at everything from sheep farming to
:15:29. > :15:32.insurance. These days he is a familiar figure in the corridors of
:15:32. > :15:39.Whitehall. I'll be speaking to him after this, from Mike Liggins.
:15:39. > :15:45.I was considered too thick to do the sciences as individual subjects.
:15:45. > :15:49.Theodore Agnew was talking to students at this new academy in
:15:49. > :15:56.Norwich. In truth, the students want sure who he was, but why would they
:15:56. > :15:59.be? Theodore Agnew is a private man and much more comfortable staying
:15:59. > :16:07.out of the limelight. He is the son of a Norfolk farmer and at age 18 he
:16:07. > :16:11.travelled to Australia for work. A year later he bought his first sheep
:16:11. > :16:21.farm. He always wanted to work for himself but he did once have an
:16:21. > :16:26.interview with computer giant IBM. At the end they said to me that they
:16:26. > :16:34.did not think I would be a good person for IBM. Thank God. They
:16:35. > :16:42.wanted someone to be an homogenised drone. In 1989, he started an
:16:42. > :16:47.insurance business. He could not find enough staff to expand so we
:16:47. > :16:54.moved part of his business to India. They were all maths and science
:16:55. > :17:03.graduates and they were being paid is $1800 a month. I realise in a
:17:03. > :17:07.globalised world that if we do not lift the whole game of our
:17:07. > :17:10.educational system, the living standards for the next generation
:17:10. > :17:14.are going to be dramatically low because they are competing with
:17:14. > :17:19.people in India. Today he is a family man, a multimillionaire and
:17:19. > :17:22.spends three days a week at the Department for Education for
:17:22. > :17:28.government adviser. He is not beyond having a chat in the kitchen but he
:17:28. > :17:33.is clearly driven. Failure at the Trust on which has seven academies
:17:33. > :17:42.in Norfolk, is not an option. He brings the best business practice
:17:42. > :17:47.and is very loyal and hard—working. He makes phone calls at seven
:17:47. > :17:53.o'clock in the morning, he really works hard. There was a lot of work
:17:53. > :17:57.to be done. Academies remain controversial. A spokesman for the
:17:57. > :18:06.Nu Teed told me that they are the beginning of privatisation. —— N U
:18:06. > :18:10.T. He said the break—up of the authority system is preventing any
:18:10. > :18:17.strategic planning. How are you going? I am enjoying it. Theodore
:18:17. > :18:20.Agnew is chatting to A—level chemistry students and he is
:18:20. > :18:24.impressed by them. He is passionate about driving up standards in
:18:24. > :18:37.education and believes that academies are the way forward.
:18:37. > :18:42.Theodore Agnew is here now. The National union of teachers is that
:18:42. > :18:46.the beginning of privatisation. We should remember that Ofsted carried
:18:46. > :18:51.out an inspection of schools in Norfolk and told us that half were
:18:51. > :18:56.less than good or outstanding. This is about raising standards. Is it
:18:56. > :19:01.about breaking up the education system? No, absolutely not. There is
:19:01. > :19:06.no prospect of it becoming privatised. I cannot understand
:19:06. > :19:12.where they got that from. People say somebody is making a big buck out of
:19:12. > :19:17.it. Are you making a big buck? I wish I was. I made a commitment to
:19:17. > :19:21.our first school in extending the school day but there is no way I'm
:19:21. > :19:27.taking a penny out of it, quite the opposite. What is the most important
:19:27. > :19:29.thing in a successful school? Good teaching and learning and good
:19:30. > :19:38.leadership. That is the main priority. Are you able to find those
:19:38. > :19:43.people? That is the challenge but what the Academy does is take an
:19:43. > :19:49.outstanding head and put them in charge of several schools. Rachel,
:19:49. > :19:52.who was in the clip a moment ago, was outstanding in a school in
:19:52. > :19:57.Norwich, and she can take that knowledge and put it into several
:19:57. > :20:02.other schools. Why can they not do that in the state system? They have
:20:02. > :20:08.not done it. One of the first things we are doing is identifying future
:20:08. > :20:14.leaders. Does that mean you are cherry picking them from state
:20:14. > :20:17.schools? No, all of these teachers are all existing teachers in the
:20:17. > :20:23.schools that we took over a month ago. Why can they not do that in the
:20:23. > :20:33.state system? One problem is that they cannot attract headteachers.
:20:33. > :20:37.Academies are state schools. You will have two direct that question
:20:37. > :20:43.to the local authorities. That goes to the heart of the problems. Good
:20:43. > :20:49.leadership is what turns schools around and that is what I am focused
:20:49. > :20:53.on in our trust. That is what will lift the standards. Is there too
:20:53. > :21:00.much politics in education? That is the other advantage of academies. It
:21:00. > :21:07.strips out politicians. I'm here to where my cap as the head of an
:21:07. > :21:12.academy chain and not as the face as director in Whitehall. I can speak
:21:12. > :21:16.with some passion about my trust. We want to get bureaucrats out. Those
:21:16. > :21:20.bureaucrats would say that what you can do, if you keep all the schools
:21:20. > :21:26.together, is how strategic planning. If you take some out and
:21:26. > :21:31.give them priority treatment, they cannot do that. As a businessman, I
:21:31. > :21:34.look at outputs, and the standards in schools is not good enough. They
:21:34. > :21:40.have had plenty of time to do all these things and they have not done
:21:40. > :21:45.it. Academies still have to work closely with their local authority
:21:45. > :21:50.on pupil placed planning because at the moment we have the largest surge
:21:50. > :21:55.in infant population since records began. We have to work with local
:21:55. > :22:00.authorities on that. Will there be any local authority schools in five
:22:00. > :22:03.years' time? I cannot look into the future and I think it is important
:22:04. > :22:10.to remember that two thirds of schools they become academies do so
:22:10. > :22:19.of their own volition. It is only struggling schools that are pushed
:22:19. > :22:22.towards becoming an Academy. So, our sister programme Sunday Politics is
:22:22. > :22:25.covering the subject of Academy schools this weekend. That's with
:22:25. > :22:28.Amelia Reynolds at 11.15 on Sunday, here on BBC One.
:22:28. > :22:31.Buyers from across the world are expected in Essex next week for a
:22:31. > :22:35.remarkable auction. The entire contents of a country home owned by
:22:35. > :22:40.one of our most important architects the man who designed New Scotland
:22:40. > :22:43.Yard. The interest has been sparked by
:22:43. > :22:46.works of art, collected over a lifetime, by Bobby and Virginia
:22:46. > :22:49.Chapman. The treasures are being exhibited in an auction room which
:22:49. > :23:01.has been designed to look like their original home. Richard Daniel has
:23:01. > :23:17.been for a preview. Debord and manner Debdon Manor. His
:23:17. > :23:23.commissions included new Scotland Yard and the refurbishment of London
:23:23. > :23:26.St Pancras station. Now the contents of Debdon Manor have been
:23:26. > :23:33.reassembled for sale a few miles down the road. It is an eclectic mix
:23:33. > :23:42.and we have works here that Mr Chapman commission. Other items are
:23:42. > :23:46.also here and what I love about this collection is that it is 40 years of
:23:46. > :23:59.the Chapman is 40 years of the Chapmans building this. We get to
:23:59. > :24:06.the Lowry 's. They stick figures from the 1970s. I was always naive I
:24:06. > :24:12.am quite struck by it. It is almost a Halloween typeface. There was
:24:12. > :24:19.quite a skull like, slim, scary person. Every piece has a tail. Take
:24:19. > :24:24.this seat, made of mahogany. No upholstery. It was designed for
:24:24. > :24:30.servants visiting stately homes and they didn't want them passing on any
:24:30. > :24:35.illnesses. The main reason for us doing the sale was to keep it all
:24:35. > :24:43.together as a house, at the home, as the collection. It shows what they
:24:43. > :24:50.enjoyed. Various items like the sardine dishes. The collection of
:24:50. > :24:57.over 1000 lots is being sold after the family moved to a smaller home.
:24:57. > :25:05.Some estimates exceed £30,000. A lifetime 's collection goes under
:25:05. > :25:11.the hammer next week. Amazing. Let's get the weather. I do
:25:11. > :25:16.not think it is looking too great, is it? We have had better weather
:25:16. > :25:22.around. It will be unsettled in places. It has been wet and windy in
:25:22. > :25:26.many regions. That is thanks to this front which is moving across the
:25:26. > :25:33.country. You can see the blue on this map where the rain was. That is
:25:33. > :25:40.where the heaviest rain was and in fact we had 15.2 millimetres
:25:40. > :25:46.reported, that is about a quarter of a month's rain in one hour. We could
:25:46. > :25:50.have problems on the roads, particularly in Essex. A windy day
:25:50. > :25:59.in the region with gusts up to 43 mph. Many places reaching 40 miles
:25:59. > :26:04.an hour. The Met office does have a yellow weather warning out
:26:04. > :26:09.indicating 20 millimetres more rain in parts of Essex. That is where the
:26:09. > :26:14.heaviest rain will be. Temperature is will be around 11 or 12 Celsius.
:26:14. > :26:21.Not too cold but with that fresh north—easterly winds, it will be
:26:21. > :26:25.chilly. There will be unsettled weather in places tomorrow but the
:26:26. > :26:28.rain will become more confined to the north as we go through the
:26:29. > :26:36.afternoon. In fact, down in the south, we may see the sun break out.
:26:36. > :26:43.Tomorrow's temperature is raising from 11 or 12 Celsius. We could see
:26:43. > :26:46.14 Celsius in places. The other thing to notice is lighter winds so
:26:46. > :26:52.we will have a light and variable breeze. It will be a bit warmer
:26:52. > :26:56.tomorrow then. You can see the rain in the north of the region and it

:27:06. > :27:13.the week and it will bring us rain through the day on Sunday. Rain
:27:13. > :27:16.mainly in the north of the area on Saturday, spreading across most of
:27:16. > :27:23.the region on Sunday. The low begins to weaken and things improve on
