:00:00. > :00:00.News at Six, so it's goodbye from me, and on BBC One we now join
:00:07. > :00:18.Good evening. In the programme tonight, bottom of the class again.
:00:19. > :00:21.The damning report from Ofsted as the East is ranked worst in the
:00:22. > :00:26.country of standards of education. Also tonight, the priest and
:00:27. > :00:30.academics sacked after complaints about his conduct. The Church of
:00:31. > :00:34.England has launched a major investigation. We will be here later
:00:35. > :00:38.with the programme with an international approach to take the
:00:39. > :00:44.quiet crisis of dementia more seriously. This meeting today is
:00:45. > :00:50.arguably the most significant event in dementia since Alzheimer's
:00:51. > :00:53.described the disease. And the Cobblers, the Saints and the steel
:00:54. > :01:03.backs behind the wheel at Silverstone.
:01:04. > :01:07.Good evening. A quarter of a million children in
:01:08. > :01:10.this region are being taught in schools which aren't good enough,
:01:11. > :01:14.the verdict today from the chief inspector of Ofsted. The East has
:01:15. > :01:15.emerged as one of the worst areas in the country for primary schools Out
:01:16. > :01:18.the country for primary schools. Out of 150 local authorities,
:01:19. > :01:23.Peterborough and Cambridgeshire rank in the bottom 10%. But there was
:01:24. > :01:26.praise for Bedford, where 95% of pupils attend good or outstanding
:01:27. > :01:32.schools, followed by Central Bedfordshire and Milton Keynes.
:01:33. > :01:36.Secondary schools are improving but they, too, are still lagging behind
:01:37. > :01:46.the rest of England. This report from Ben Bland.
:01:47. > :01:54.This afternoon we will be writing a recount.... A well`behaved school.
:01:55. > :01:58.This is the same even when the cameras aren't there. It is partly
:01:59. > :02:03.what the makes the school successful. You need a good policy
:02:04. > :02:05.shared with all the children, the staff, the parents, and it's got to
:02:06. > :02:09.be consistent across the school, be consistent across the school
:02:10. > :02:14.everybody sharing and doing exactly the same thing. It's not just the
:02:15. > :02:19.school doing well. Primary schools across Bedford are amongst the best
:02:20. > :02:22.performing in England. I think it is all about involving everybody in the
:02:23. > :02:27.school community in the work you do to make sure everyone understands
:02:28. > :02:32.what the score's objectives are and what needs to be done to improve
:02:33. > :02:37.standards, and also that schools work together, which we all do very
:02:38. > :02:41.well here. In Peterborough, there are problems. Ofsted says 6,000
:02:42. > :02:46.pupils are being taught in primary schools that are not good enough
:02:47. > :02:50.making it one of the worst areas in the region and the country. Parents
:02:51. > :02:52.seem to be giving them the benefit of the doubt. I'm not saying there
:02:53. > :02:58.aren't schools without problems but aren't schools without problems, but
:02:59. > :03:02.in any city, you'll get that. There are parts where there aren't good
:03:03. > :03:04.schools but over the side, it's OK. You have to ride it out and I think
:03:05. > :03:08.you can support at home as well. you can support at home as well.
:03:09. > :03:10.Peterborough City Council admits it has work to do but in a statement
:03:11. > :03:23.they say... The local MP says the area faces
:03:24. > :03:27.particular challenges. It is the level of churn in primary schools,
:03:28. > :03:32.those children that start off in a school but are not there at the end
:03:33. > :03:36.of the academic year, and those who are not there at the beginning but
:03:37. > :03:41.finish the academic year, that puts enormous strain on resources in
:03:42. > :03:44.terms of teaching, teaching assistants and the school budget.
:03:45. > :03:49.Secondary schools are also lagging behind England as a whole. Ofsted
:03:50. > :03:52.says they are improving but there is more work to be done.
:03:53. > :03:55.In his report today, Sir Michael Wilshaw doesn't hold back. He said
:03:56. > :04:01.poor leadership and teaching are leading to mediocre education. Neil
:04:02. > :04:09.Bradford's been to meet one head teacher in Northamptonshire who is
:04:10. > :04:14.getting results. Eight years ago, Duston School was
:04:15. > :04:21.failing. Last month for the first time Ofsted inspectors rated it is
:04:22. > :04:25.outstanding. The transformation has been overseen by principal Jane
:04:26. > :04:31.Herriman who is now helping other schools improve. It's about being
:04:32. > :04:35.able to celebrate with the staff here and moving the Duston School
:04:36. > :04:39.into its next sphere of creativity and how we will support and work
:04:40. > :04:43.with other schools and trying to get the other schools that we are
:04:44. > :04:47.supporting to realise that we do understand, we know where you are,
:04:48. > :04:50.and we can help you and work with you to make those rapid changes.
:04:51. > :04:57.and we can help you and work with you to make those rapid changes.
:04:58. > :05:00.Jane still has big ambitions for the Duston School but now splits her
:05:01. > :05:05.time between another secondary school in Northampton and 130 miles
:05:06. > :05:09.away in Bletchley. She admits continual changes to inspection
:05:10. > :05:13.standards can be a challenge. When you think you've got to the
:05:14. > :05:17.finishing line, that line is ever changing, but that is the world
:05:18. > :05:21.we're in at the moment and we can never be complacent and sit back. We
:05:22. > :05:30.have got to look to the future. And the future is these young people.
:05:31. > :05:35.Down the motorway, Jane Herriman is working with senior staff at the Sir
:05:36. > :05:38.Herbert Leon Academy in Bletchley to help raise standards. She became
:05:39. > :05:45.executive principle here just six weeks ago. She says there is a long
:05:46. > :05:50.way to go and no magic formula. It is not one size fits all. You need
:05:51. > :05:55.to understand the community you're dealing with. And it starts with the
:05:56. > :06:00.adults in school and making sure that adults are doing the most
:06:01. > :06:04.appropriate systems. Then we need to explain those systems to young
:06:05. > :06:10.people. And we all need agree on what the consequences are who are
:06:11. > :06:14.not following those systems. Reaching the standard set by Duston
:06:15. > :06:18.School will take time. But Jane Herriman believes the key to
:06:19. > :06:27.improving children's learning is teachers learning from each other.
:06:28. > :06:31.Ofsted believes leadership is key to improvement. Are we about to see
:06:32. > :06:36.some heads teachers sacked? I asked the Ofsted regional director Sean
:06:37. > :06:40.Harford. Head teachers are moved on, sacked,
:06:41. > :06:46.if you like, anyway, so it is a bit of a myth outside education that
:06:47. > :06:50.head teachers don't lose their jobs. But I think that clearly where
:06:51. > :06:55.people are not doing the job they need to, their role needs to be put
:06:56. > :06:59.under scrutiny. Some of the schools have had poor performance ratings
:07:00. > :07:03.for some time and if it is so easy to fix this, why hasn't it been done
:07:04. > :07:07.before? We are not saying it is easy to fix, but we know it can be done.
:07:08. > :07:16.There are a lot of examples across the region where schools that have
:07:17. > :07:19.languished, if you like, an academy in Norfolk, for example, but the
:07:20. > :07:23.right leadership was put in place and this school is now outstanding.
:07:24. > :07:32.It might be tough but it can be done. Pupils exam results are also
:07:33. > :07:37.below the average. We are failing them, aren't we? The issue really is
:07:38. > :07:42.that there are lucky and unlucky children. I live in Cambridgeshire.
:07:43. > :07:47.My jewellery went to a great high risk will and to a great secondary
:07:48. > :07:53.school. But 30 miles up the road, in Wisbech, parents will have a very
:07:54. > :07:57.different experience. That is the danger, isn't it? We might defect
:07:58. > :08:02.late head teachers who have worked hard because despite the overall
:08:03. > :08:08.poor standard, there are some outstanding schools. It's crucial to
:08:09. > :08:13.identify where things are going wrong and where things are going
:08:14. > :08:18.well and people are given credit for that. And that those schools work
:08:19. > :08:22.with weaker schools to improve them. In terms of an immediate recovery
:08:23. > :08:26.plan, what needs to happen in the next few months and where will
:08:27. > :08:29.schools be in the year from now? People need to focus absolutely on
:08:30. > :08:33.what is going on in the classroom, get the environment right in the
:08:34. > :08:37.classrooms and in the schools so that teachers can do their job
:08:38. > :08:49.effectively with those youngsters. We have seen bad behaviour, but we
:08:50. > :08:53.noticed that there is an acceptance of low`level disruption. And that
:08:54. > :08:54.means children can't learn effectively in schools, week in,
:08:55. > :08:56.effectively in schools, week in week out.
:08:57. > :08:59.A senior priest and Cambridge University academic has been sacked
:09:00. > :09:03.after complaints were made about his contact with vulnerable young men in
:09:04. > :09:06.his care. The Reverend Canon Dr Fraser Watts is the subject of a
:09:07. > :09:09.Church of England safeguarding investigation involving the Diocese
:09:10. > :09:13.of Ely, the University and the Police. Dr Watts is a former
:09:14. > :09:17.president of the British Psychological Society. This
:09:18. > :09:26.exclusive report from home affairs correspondent Sally Chidzoy.
:09:27. > :09:35.Reverend Canon Dr Fraser Watts is an internationally renowned academic
:09:36. > :09:39.psychologist and he let this church in Cambridge but now he is the focus
:09:40. > :09:43.of the church safeguarding investigation. Honourable men who
:09:44. > :09:47.sought Pastoral and spiritual support from Dr Watts have made
:09:48. > :09:53.complaints against him. Sources have told the BBC a number are faced
:09:54. > :09:58.sexual nature. Dr Watts was employed by Trinity Hall behind me, Cambridge
:09:59. > :10:02.University said he had resigned and was no longer associated with the
:10:03. > :10:05.university and they were working with the church may safeguarding
:10:06. > :10:09.investigation. The church itself said that Dr Watts no longer had
:10:10. > :10:12.permission to officiate at the diocese of Ely and they were working
:10:13. > :10:15.closely with the police and the University on the investigation.
:10:16. > :10:19.University on the investigation According to sources, Dr Watts was
:10:20. > :10:24.told, resign or be sacked. He was excluded from Queens' College where
:10:25. > :10:27.he was a fellow and reader in theology and science. The church
:10:28. > :10:31.were Dr Watts can no longer conduct services belongs to Trinity Hall. In
:10:32. > :10:46.a newsletter, the acting vicar chaplain told churchgoers...
:10:47. > :10:53.Six years ago, Reverend Canon Dr Fraser Watts attack could ``
:10:54. > :10:59.attracted media attention when he announced Eucharist services for
:11:00. > :11:03.goths. Are you a goth? No, I am not. You look like one. Tonight I am The
:11:04. > :11:09.You look like one. Tonight I am! The diocese of Ely received a complaint
:11:10. > :11:13.against the priest four years ago. The police concluded there was
:11:14. > :11:16.insufficient evidence. It is understood that the Reverend Canon
:11:17. > :11:20.Dr Fraser Watts was asked not provide past will support to young
:11:21. > :11:24.men but his colleagues were unaware of the safeguarding concerns. Since
:11:25. > :11:28.then, there have been a number of fresh complaints. This comes back to
:11:29. > :11:31.the structural problems with safeguarding in church
:11:32. > :11:39.organisations. Too much reliance placed on the Bishop, and the
:11:40. > :11:44.designated safeguarding officer within the dioceses to make the
:11:45. > :11:49.decisions. They cannot make in any real sense be considered to be
:11:50. > :11:53.independent. At his home in Cambridge, the Reverend Canon Dr
:11:54. > :11:59.Fraser Watts declined to answer any questions about the complaints made
:12:00. > :12:03.against him. He said he would not comment while the investigation is
:12:04. > :12:07.ongoing. One complainant told the BBC it was an extremely sensitive
:12:08. > :12:11.time for him. The police say they are aware of the safeguarding matter
:12:12. > :12:15.and they have not received any complaints at the time.
:12:16. > :12:19.A man accused of killing a pensioner in a row over a parking space told a
:12:20. > :12:22.court today that he acted in self defence. Retired builder Alan Watts
:12:23. > :12:26.says he was attacked by Brian Holmes after he sarcastically questioned
:12:27. > :12:30.his right to park in a disabled bay. He told the jury he punched Mr
:12:31. > :12:35.Holmes at the ASDA store in Biggleswade. And that he then drove
:12:36. > :12:38.off because he was scared and wanted to get away. Mr Watts denies
:12:39. > :12:42.manslaughter. The trial continues. A man and a woman have had to jump
:12:43. > :12:45.to safety from a house fire this morning. A second woman had to be
:12:46. > :12:49.rescued through the first`floor window of the property in Daniels
:12:50. > :12:52.Welch in Coffee Hall in Milton Keynes just after 4am. The fire
:12:53. > :12:55.service said the blaze was so intense inside it burnt away the
:12:56. > :12:58.stairs. An investigation is under way.
:12:59. > :13:02.Latest figures show a growing number of businesses are choosing Milton
:13:03. > :13:05.Keynes as the place to set up. The total number of business units in
:13:06. > :13:09.the new town has risen by almost 400 in the last year. The council says
:13:10. > :13:12.with a growing economy more jobs are being created. Some businesses have
:13:13. > :13:20.chosen to base their European headquarters in the town.
:13:21. > :13:22.There is an awful lot of technology oriented people based in Milton
:13:23. > :13:32.Keynes, a lot of technology companies growing here. The UKTI led
:13:33. > :13:36.us to being here in Milton Keynes. There seems to be a high presence of
:13:37. > :13:38.people in the surrounding towns with language skills as well.
:13:39. > :13:42.The Northampton`based chain 99p Stores is to open 70 new shops over
:13:43. > :13:47.the next two years. The company is investing ?25 million which it says
:13:48. > :13:50.will create more than 2,000 jobs. The chain has grown rapidly in
:13:51. > :14:00.recent years following the demise of Woolworths in 2008. Those are the
:14:01. > :14:01.top stories. Alex

:14:32. > :14:36.Six days after the tidal surge swept down the region's coast, work has
:14:37. > :14:39.begun on repairing the damage caused to sea defences. The Environment
:14:40. > :14:43.Agency says it's too early to say how much it will all cost but it
:14:44. > :14:46.will take time and money. Today, the Minister in charge of the recovery
:14:47. > :14:49.programme chaired a meeting in Whitehall. We'll be hearing from
:14:50. > :14:52.Brandon Lewis in a moment. But first, our environment reporter
:14:53. > :14:59.Richard Daniel has been to see the diggers in action in Suffolk trying
:15:00. > :15:06.to plug the gaps. It was built following the floods of 1953. But it
:15:07. > :15:10.was no match for the surge of 2013. This was one of 22 places in Suffolk
:15:11. > :15:14.where sea and river walls were breached, as were many more in
:15:15. > :15:21.Norfolk. Here's the point where the water poured in. During the search,
:15:22. > :15:24.the sea came over this whole. There was pressure on the front edge. What
:15:25. > :15:31.they think happened is the water went mind as it came over. It
:15:32. > :15:39.created a weakness which caused the wall to fall. Heavy machinery
:15:40. > :15:44.arrived to make emergency repairs. Locals say not enough has been done.
:15:45. > :15:52.Banks slump, they lose height over a period of time, that would have had
:15:53. > :15:57.an effect this particular case, because there are at least 120
:15:58. > :16:03.metres of topping and a lesser amount in the other direction.
:16:04. > :16:07.Norfolk and Suffolk's defences for the brunt of last week's North Sea
:16:08. > :16:13.surge. The extent of the damage and the cost is still being assessed.
:16:14. > :16:18.Months of work lie ahead, the cost is expected to run into millions of
:16:19. > :16:20.pounds. With the field teams and contractors we are going out of the
:16:21. > :16:30.most urgent locations and filling them with clay. We are doing
:16:31. > :16:34.emergency repairs so we can stop any further tide coming in right.
:16:35. > :16:38.Ultimately, we will come back and assess these locations to see what
:16:39. > :16:42.further work will be needed. The environment agency is drafting in
:16:43. > :16:46.extra staff. They said the immediate priority is to plug the gaps that
:16:47. > :16:56.have left properties and communities at risk. A committee to oversee the
:16:57. > :17:02.reconstruction of homes and businesses met for the first time. I
:17:03. > :17:05.spoke to Brandon Lewis, the MP. He said there will not be any extra
:17:06. > :17:11.money so I asked how the work will be paid for. At the moment, local
:17:12. > :17:16.authorities, the agencies charged with the clear process, arguing that
:17:17. > :17:20.work. The government has activated the Bellwin Scheme, so local
:17:21. > :17:25.authorities can make a claim to central government. It is a
:17:26. > :17:30.well`known scheme. They have used it in floods before. They will be
:17:31. > :17:35.recompensed for that. The environment agency is assessing the
:17:36. > :17:39.damage. They will assess that as part of their budget. They have an
:17:40. > :17:43.ongoing budget in terms of flood work and repair work and flood
:17:44. > :17:51.protection. That has increased under this government and in my own can
:17:52. > :17:58.Rich Ricci, just next year, there is a scheme to improve it. `` my own
:17:59. > :18:05.constituency. What have your constituents been saying about help
:18:06. > :18:09.from government? Obviously, I have a role to look at what we're doing, to
:18:10. > :18:14.make sure the clear up work is going ahead properly across the country.
:18:15. > :18:18.As a constituency member of Parliament for great Yarmouth I have
:18:19. > :18:24.two sides of it. We have residents who have benefited this year from
:18:25. > :18:29.the work that was done, and the town centre was not as badly hit, and we
:18:30. > :18:33.have a further ?28 million of work starting next year, that is
:18:34. > :18:37.fantastic news to protect about 15,000 properties. We still have
:18:38. > :18:43.work to do around the coastal erosion issue. Part of this is
:18:44. > :18:48.making sure whatever work is done is the correct work. Making sure the
:18:49. > :18:53.experts have looked at it and the money is being spent to give help to
:18:54. > :19:00.those areas. How worried are you about future flooding events? We are
:19:01. > :19:05.always against nature. The internal work that is being done will give us
:19:06. > :19:10.further protection, but when we get a surge like that, even with flood
:19:11. > :19:13.defences and coastal erosion work, there will not necessarily be
:19:14. > :19:18.protection from the harshest realities of nature, particularly as
:19:19. > :19:23.an island nation. There is a concern about why it is important that the
:19:24. > :19:26.planning work is done. Local groups did amazing work making sure those
:19:27. > :19:31.preparations are in place. They paid dividends to make sure areas like
:19:32. > :19:36.great Yarmouth could evacuate. If we have that, the important thing is
:19:37. > :19:39.people remain safe by listening to the advice they are given by all of
:19:40. > :19:47.the agencies, the emergency services, the environment agency, he
:19:48. > :19:54.the warnings and stay safe. `` he'd the warnings. As you may have seen,
:19:55. > :19:57.world leaders are ` for the first time ` coming together to talk about
:19:58. > :20:01.dementia. It's given hope to a Cambridge charity that has for years
:20:02. > :20:04.worked towards treatment and a cure. Today Alzheimer's Research UK
:20:05. > :20:07.announced it's going to spend ?3m to boost research into finding the
:20:08. > :20:13.right drugs. Anna Todd has been to meet two women whose lives have been
:20:14. > :20:19.turned upside down by the disease. In their late 80s, life began to
:20:20. > :20:23.change for Mary and Fred Carling. She could not make a cup of tea.
:20:24. > :20:33.Things like that. She put frozen food into a draw. `` drawer. They
:20:34. > :20:41.started arguing in ways that they had not done before. Their daughter
:20:42. > :20:45.watched as dementia set in. My father was diagnosed and we were
:20:46. > :20:48.told there was nothing we could do. My mother was not diagnosed, the
:20:49. > :20:57.Doctor said there was not much point giving her any medication. Today,
:20:58. > :21:05.world leaders pledged treatments and cures by 2025. Arguably the most
:21:06. > :21:10.significant event in dementia and Alzheimer's described the disease.
:21:11. > :21:14.We are tasked with making it more visible than it has ever been
:21:15. > :21:22.before. Hope is hard to come by. Most drugs trials fail. On the back
:21:23. > :21:24.of this summit, one Cambridge charity is pulling together a

:22:47. > :22:48.at Silverstone. The idea was to see how stars from Northampton's
:22:49. > :22:52.football, cricket and rugby teams would get on around the circuit.
:22:53. > :22:56.Driving a fast car is one thing but tearing round in the fog this
:22:57. > :23:05.morning proved to be a real challenge.Mike Liggins was there.
:23:06. > :23:13.Alex Weekley was trying on his motor racing uniform for size. I checked
:23:14. > :23:20.out if these Northampton Town footballers were safe to drive.
:23:21. > :23:31.In the briefing, Danny Emerton looked nervous, but then he spoke a
:23:32. > :23:35.good game. I am a good driver. A few of the lads then there would not be
:23:36. > :23:42.so sure about that, but I will be OK. Really? Some of them not so
:23:43. > :23:48.good? You need to look out for them. Strapped in and ready to go. This
:23:49. > :23:55.footballer bunny hopped his way down the pit lane. The foggy conditions
:23:56. > :24:02.made driving difficult. One of the drivers appears to have stopped. He
:24:03. > :24:07.cannot start again either. I think he got lost in the fog.
:24:08. > :24:15.We saw you bunny hopping down the pit lane. That was quite good.
:24:16. > :24:26.Obviously, my car is a bit different. Once I found the clutch,
:24:27. > :24:30.I was more comfortable. Then it was the turn of the rugby players and
:24:31. > :24:37.the Cricketers, they have had three years. The sports are coming
:24:38. > :24:39.together, we trained with another team the other day. It is good for
:24:40. > :24:48.the town. Sadly, some of the players never got
:24:49. > :24:53.to show how quickly would have been because the fog came down and it was
:24:54. > :24:56.not safe to drive, but money was raised for Northampton general, and
:24:57. > :24:59.the footballers ever give up the day job, there might be a new Lewis
:25:00. > :25:04.Hamilton here. Unlikely, but you never know.
:25:05. > :25:15.What a shame for all of them. Very bad luck. Quite a lot of us have
:25:16. > :25:20.this fog. For some of us, it did lift, making some beautiful sunsets.
:25:21. > :25:28.We have some photographs showing the sun setting. Some of us had fog all

:25:37. > :25:39.and overnight. `` chilly. It should not be as widespread as it was last
:25:40. > :25:44.night. You can still see that we have high pressure, light wind,
:25:45. > :25:52.clear skies, conditions are pretty ideal. You can see the satellite
:25:53. > :25:57.image from earlier across this western half, that is where it
:25:58. > :26:07.lingered. Expect an evening, the first part of the night will be
:26:08. > :26:13.misty and foggy. Temperatures around freezing for most of us, that could
:26:14. > :26:22.mean fog patches. Temperatures will hover around 2`3 Celsius. Tomorrow,
:26:23. > :26:28.it is going to be misty, but it should lift the way and we will be
:26:29. > :26:31.left with a cloudy forecast. There might be brighter spells but the
:26:32. > :26:35.general trend will be for the cloud to increase into the afternoon. It
:26:36. > :26:40.should stay dry, although into the afternoon and evening, just a few
:26:41. > :26:49.spots of drizzle are possible. Still a cold day. The wind will freshen

:27:01. > :27:04.the west. The wind will strengthen, but this weather front will not have
:27:05. > :27:09.a great deal of rain on it by the time it gets to our part of the
:27:10. > :27:15.region. Some brighter spells to start with, but on the whole a lot
:27:16. > :27:21.of cloud. Into the mid to late afternoon, there is a chance of
:27:22. > :27:26.patchy rain, turning more persistent. The wind will freshen
:27:27. > :27:33.through Friday. For the weekend it looks largely dry, a bit cloudy at
