:00:12. > :00:15.Good evening. Hello and welcome to Tuesday's Look
:00:16. > :00:17.East. Coming up in the programme tonight: Accused of financial
:00:18. > :00:21.mismanagement, the college that claimed more than ?1 million for
:00:22. > :00:24.students it couldn't prove it had. We have an exclusive report.
:00:25. > :00:26.Victory for campaigners in the latest courtroom battle over a wind
:00:27. > :00:33.farm at this heritage site. And later with Susie and me...
:00:34. > :00:36.On the Rowe`d to Wembley: After a night of high drama, Posh hit the
:00:37. > :00:39.history books. And Indiana Jones and the mystery of
:00:40. > :00:54.the manuscript... Stay tuned to find out more.
:00:55. > :00:59.Good evening. First tonight, the college in Luton which claimed
:01:00. > :01:03.nearly ?1 million pounds for students it had no record of
:01:04. > :01:06.teaching. The BBC has seen a damning report into the Barnfield Federation
:01:07. > :01:09.which runs a college and half a dozen academies and schools across
:01:10. > :01:11.Bedfordshire. The report also says the college spent at least ?1.2
:01:12. > :01:21.million on failed projects. Paul Scoins has this exclusive report.
:01:22. > :01:24.For the management at Barnfield College, this report makes for
:01:25. > :01:26.uncomfortable reading. Investigations began last October
:01:27. > :01:29.following allegations of financial mismanagement and the massaging of
:01:30. > :01:33.grades, and today we can reveal the report has found: The college
:01:34. > :01:36.wrongly claimed nearly ?1million for students it had no record of
:01:37. > :01:40.teaching. Mismanagement led to it losing 1.25
:01:41. > :01:43.million on failed projects. And its former boss, Sir Peter
:01:44. > :01:46.Birkett, was given two payoffs, holiday allowances and a car when he
:01:47. > :01:54.resigned, despite only being entitled to and asking for holiday
:01:55. > :01:57.pay. Now, because of the findings of this
:01:58. > :02:00.report, I understand Barnfield College has also been told it will
:02:01. > :02:04.now lose around ?1million worth of funding because it cannot simply
:02:05. > :02:07.prove it enrolled and taught some students here at the Luton campus.
:02:08. > :02:10.The college and the former boss here, Sir Peter Birkett, say they
:02:11. > :02:13.won't comment until the final report is published, but I understand from
:02:14. > :02:16.the Government that this report has now been passed to the police.
:02:17. > :02:26.The allegations surrounding Barnfield have also now been raised
:02:27. > :02:32.in Parliament. The Luton South MP called for all
:02:33. > :02:37.information to be made public. Whistle`blowers have previously
:02:38. > :02:41.experienced the experiences. While we committed to publishing all
:02:42. > :02:45.inquiry reports in full, including all of the versions of those reports
:02:46. > :02:50.that have been circulated outside of the Department? I am grateful to the
:02:51. > :02:55.honourable gentleman for basing this case. There have been serious
:02:56. > :02:59.allegations made in connection with the Barnfield Federation. They are
:03:00. > :03:05.being investigated and nothing that I should say, to publish should
:03:06. > :03:07.prejudice that. Whenever there is information, however, that is
:03:08. > :03:11.correct that we should share with those affected and the public, we
:03:12. > :03:14.will do so in due course. The Barnfield Federation was once
:03:15. > :03:17.singled out for praise by the Government, but now finds itself
:03:18. > :03:20.waiting to hear the final results of the investigation by the Department
:03:21. > :03:26.for Education and crucially that of the police.
:03:27. > :03:28.A short while ago I spoke to Luton MP Gavin Shuker and asked whether
:03:29. > :03:31.claiming nearly ?1 million for students it had no record of
:03:32. > :03:41.teaching was down to poor book`keeping or something more
:03:42. > :03:45.sinister. On the surface of it, the concern that more than one mugging
:03:46. > :03:49.pounds worth of public funds `` funds were procured by the Barnfield
:03:50. > :03:52.Federation as outlined in the report without the student numbers backing
:03:53. > :03:57.up that claim, that is the play concerning. I am aware that there
:03:58. > :04:01.will be further investigations into this. What I would say is that
:04:02. > :04:04.biofuels will have to get a clear account as to how those mistakes
:04:05. > :04:08.occurred in the first place. Otherwise people will be concerned
:04:09. > :04:13.there was foul play. There has also been the suggestion about Sir
:04:14. > :04:19.Peter's extravagant handshake, did that surprise you? Some of the most
:04:20. > :04:24.shocking details surround Sir Peter's departure. It is clear there
:04:25. > :04:28.was an issue around the people who agreed that the. One of the concerns
:04:29. > :04:32.I have around the conflict structure of the Barnfield Federation was that
:04:33. > :04:35.there were two different boards of trustees and it is not clear which
:04:36. > :04:41.one would have had the decision`making power. It points
:04:42. > :04:45.back not just to the management but also the structure of this college
:04:46. > :04:51.in the first place. You say there is a lack of accountability. That is
:04:52. > :04:58.often the criticism levelled at academies, who is accountable? In
:04:59. > :05:02.previous days where you have said it was under local control. That has
:05:03. > :05:07.been completely changed. Initially locked out by the Labour
:05:08. > :05:12.Party who introduced the academy system. The major difference is that
:05:13. > :05:15.academies were brought in to deal with the small number of schools
:05:16. > :05:19.that were constantly running into difficulties. Since 2010 that
:05:20. > :05:26.programme has been massively accelerated. They have since gobbled
:05:27. > :05:30.up schools at an enormous rate. With all these problems, can Barnfield
:05:31. > :05:35.operate successfully or would you like to see the whole structure
:05:36. > :05:38.broken up? To be clear, there is a positive future for Barnfield and
:05:39. > :05:42.looting and possibly beyond, but that future can only be brought
:05:43. > :05:46.about if we are clear that the truth comes out as to what went wrong
:05:47. > :05:48.That is why the process for publishing these reports should be
:05:49. > :05:56.accelerated. There are many agents who want to see what evidence is
:05:57. > :06:00.available. You mentioned the parents and it comes down to them and the
:06:01. > :06:05.pupils, what can you say to reassure them tonight? My commitment is to
:06:06. > :06:11.make sure that the full truth comes out. We do not want a witchhunt but
:06:12. > :06:21.if there are policy implications, I will be pushing for them in
:06:22. > :06:24.Parliament. Plans for a wind farm near a
:06:25. > :06:27.heritage site in Northamptonshire have been halted. The Court of
:06:28. > :06:30.Appeal rejected an application by the developers behind the proposal.
:06:31. > :06:32.And today's ruling could have implications for future developments
:06:33. > :06:34.across the region. Lyveden New Bield in
:06:35. > :06:37.Northamptonshire, a historic listed building that campaigners say would
:06:38. > :06:40.be spoiled if four wind turbines were built nearby. They'd be almost
:06:41. > :06:43.twice the height of Nelson's Column. So the National Trust, English
:06:44. > :06:50.Heritage and the local council took the case to court and won. I am
:06:51. > :06:55.overjoyed. It has been a great week off of our shoulders. Hopefully this
:06:56. > :06:56.is gone. I club they will go away now.
:06:57. > :07:07.In 2010, East Northamptonshire District Council refused permission.
:07:08. > :07:09.The developers appealed and in 012 the planning inspector granted
:07:10. > :07:13.permission. But last year the High Court said that decision was flawed.
:07:14. > :07:17.The developers then went to the Court of Appeal, but lost. So why is
:07:18. > :07:20.the National Trust blocking a green energy project? Sharrine Scholtz we
:07:21. > :07:24.have supported many renewable projects and we have our own targets
:07:25. > :07:32.to reduce our energy use by 50% by 2020. This is over and inappropriate
:07:33. > :07:35.skill and location and we believe that renewables can be incorporated
:07:36. > :07:38.within our landscape and a West Coast Energy could now ask the
:07:39. > :07:40.planning inspector to reconsider their application afresh.
:07:41. > :07:44.Much more sensitive way. In a statement the company said "We
:07:45. > :07:48.are disappointed with the decision of the Court of Appeal. We will have
:07:49. > :07:51.to carefully consider the detail of the judgment before deciding what
:07:52. > :07:54.action to take." This decision by the Court of Appeal
:07:55. > :07:58.means those pants for those particular carbines have been
:07:59. > :08:02.halted. The effect of this potentially goes beyond
:08:03. > :08:05.Northamptonshire. Three senior judges underlined that whenever a
:08:06. > :08:09.development like this is proposed next to a historical site, serious
:08:10. > :08:14.consideration must be given to the potential harm of winning it up
:08:15. > :08:24.against the potential benefits. `` weighing it up.
:08:25. > :08:27.Police have launched an investigation after a body was found
:08:28. > :08:30.in a river in Bedfordshire. A member of the public raised the alarm
:08:31. > :08:33.yesterday afternoon. The body was seen floating in the River Ouzel in
:08:34. > :08:37.Leighton Buzzard. The police say it's too early to confirm if it is
:08:38. > :08:39.that of missing 36`year`old Neil Devlin who hasn't been seen since
:08:40. > :08:42.New Year's Day. Next tonight, the changing face of
:08:43. > :08:47.A departments. The increase in people turning up at A nationally
:08:48. > :08:57.is pretty stark. In 2004, a total of 17.8 million. By 2012 that had risen
:08:58. > :09:04.to 21.7 million. So across the region hospitals are experimenting.
:09:05. > :09:07.Installing new buildings,diverting some patients and using their staff
:09:08. > :09:17.in different ways. The latest to make changes, the Queen Elizabeth in
:09:18. > :09:22.King's Lynn. Kim Riley reports. They call it ACE, that is ambulatory
:09:23. > :09:28.emergency care. This nurses attending to Anthony who suffered a
:09:29. > :09:34.collapse. He will be visiting a consultant very soon. People like
:09:35. > :09:38.myself who have chronic conditions need places like this where they can
:09:39. > :09:44.drop in to keep themselves on track. This unit can deal with 16 of them
:09:45. > :09:47.was comical `` common medical conditions.
:09:48. > :09:52.Where does it get its patients? Like Anthony B can be directed for prompt
:09:53. > :09:56.treatment. They can be deferred by this assessment unit where patients
:09:57. > :10:00.would have a stay overnight. Or they can be referred by their own GP who
:10:01. > :10:04.has direct access to the duty consultant. The new unit began as a
:10:05. > :10:10.pilot last summer. Things here happen quickly. The patients we see
:10:11. > :10:14.here historically would have stayed in hospital for one night. Our
:10:15. > :10:20.average turnaround is three hours and nine minutes. Since opening last
:10:21. > :10:24.August we have seen 1200 patients. Only 96 of those have had to be
:10:25. > :10:30.admitted to hospital. We have a 100% response rate from her patient
:10:31. > :10:32.satisfaction surveys. It is to do with the fact that they get prompt
:10:33. > :10:38.treatment from admission to treatment all in one day. Jim
:10:39. > :10:42.Cassell from King's Lynn is here with swollen legs and serious pains
:10:43. > :10:50.and looking for answers. What do you think about the staff? We are very
:10:51. > :10:59.nice and friendly. They are doing their job. I have just got to wait
:11:00. > :11:02.and see what can be done. This is a new treatment and we want to share
:11:03. > :11:09.this with local hospitals. We wanted to evolve around the whole of the
:11:10. > :11:14.NHS. That is part of the solution to ease the pressure on A
:11:15. > :11:17.departments. Two and a half years and the panning, morale is high gear
:11:18. > :11:23.but the team is soon to be suspended. There is genuine
:11:24. > :11:25.enthusiasm, not least the saving of hundreds of overnight stays in the
:11:26. > :11:28.hospital that are no longer required. The aim is to have begin
:11:29. > :11:40.it up and running eventually around the clock.
:11:41. > :11:46.First Capital Connect has given `` been given a six`month extension to
:11:47. > :11:51.its current contract. The contract was due to end next month.
:11:52. > :11:54.Yesterday, a Which? Report placed the company joint bottom of the
:11:55. > :11:57.table for train cleanliness. First Capital Connect has said it's

:12:27. > :12:34.maths than we are? Education experts in Bordeaux East to learn more ``
:12:35. > :12:37.will go. A professor from the University of
:12:38. > :12:39.Bedfordshire is being hailed as a real`life Indiana Jones, after
:12:40. > :12:43.cracking the code of a mysterious mediaeval document. This is it. It's
:12:44. > :12:46.called the Voynich manuscript. We know it's 600`odd years old. And it
:12:47. > :12:49.shows plants and stars as well as mysterious human figures. But it's
:12:50. > :12:54.the script that makes it famous, because no`one has ever deciphered
:12:55. > :12:57.what these symbols mean. Over the years it's become infamous and it
:12:58. > :13:01.even features in the Indiana Jones books. And the man who cracked it is
:13:02. > :13:05.Stephen Bax, Professor of Applied Linguistics at the University of
:13:06. > :13:14.Bedfordshire. Earlier I asked him how he did it.
:13:15. > :13:17.My background is in linguistics, and basically what I did was try to
:13:18. > :13:20.identify pictures and match them with particular words alongside. I
:13:21. > :13:25.see it as a picture crossword, working out which latter letters
:13:26. > :13:32.match the sound. Why is it important? It is a big manuscript,
:13:33. > :13:34.with lots of interesting details. If only we could understand the
:13:35. > :13:39.manuscript, it would give us an insight into mediaeval thinking. The
:13:40. > :13:43.script has been uncrackable for 600 years, so I think my efforts, which
:13:44. > :13:46.are still partial, are a kind of chink in the armount of the
:13:47. > :13:54.manuscript, which I hope will open it up to future understanding of the
:13:55. > :14:00.mediaeval mind. There has been an air of mystery around it. You think
:14:01. > :14:03.it is a treatise on nature? I think it is a mediaeval treatise on
:14:04. > :14:18.nature, written in an un`known script. I think we are now a step
:14:19. > :14:24.forward cracking it. The words you found, can you describe the ones
:14:25. > :14:32.you've managed to crack? The interesting one is the word Taurus,
:14:33. > :14:36.which is next to a picture of stars. The word alongside it seems to be a
:14:37. > :14:39.foreign word, which if you use those letters and compare it to the two
:14:40. > :14:48.plants, you can start to build up the system of letters as a whole
:14:49. > :14:53.system for the manuscript. There is still more work to do. You are being
:14:54. > :14:59.hailed as a real`life Indiana Jones. What do you make of that? My
:15:00. > :15:12.children had to laugh at that. They pointed at my balding head. Great to
:15:13. > :15:15.talk to you. A group of teachers and education
:15:16. > :15:19.experts are going to Shanghai next week to learn how they teach maths.
:15:20. > :15:23.In the most recent league table, China comes top. England is down in
:15:24. > :15:27.26th place. The delegation is being led by the Norfolk MP and Education
:15:28. > :15:31.Minister Liz Truss. It also includes Dame Rachel de Souza, who runs a
:15:32. > :15:35.number of schools in Norfolk. We'll hear from Dame Rachel in a moment,
:15:36. > :15:43.but first the background from Dawn Gerber.
:15:44. > :15:47.The contrast could not be clearer. Shanghai schoolchildren are the best
:15:48. > :15:54.in the world at maths, while British peoples like behind, ranked 26th in
:15:55. > :16:01.this study. That is why the education minister and North MP
:16:02. > :16:05.Elizabeth truss it heading east. Businesses in her county want
:16:06. > :16:09.skilled staff. This engineering centre is a hub with over 30
:16:10. > :16:15.companies in the energy and motor industry and many people with the
:16:16. > :16:20.right qualifications. It is important that students looking to
:16:21. > :16:23.work in engineering sector have got good competency in both maths and
:16:24. > :16:29.English. If you take the energy sector, it is growing and growing.
:16:30. > :16:34.We need the workforce that can manufacture these products to meet
:16:35. > :16:38.the demand. The classroom is where changes have to be made. Norfolk
:16:39. > :16:43.schools have been criticised for being among the worst performing in
:16:44. > :16:58.the country. We have to be open`minded and DeMarco minded to
:16:59. > :17:02.new schools. `` two new learning. If students fail to get good grades,
:17:03. > :17:09.they could lose out, because places like this will have to look further
:17:10. > :17:12.afield and maybe even abroad. Dame Rachel de Souza is the CEO of the
:17:13. > :17:16.Inspiration Trust, which runs seven schools in Norfolk, and has helped
:17:17. > :17:22.two schools out of special measures and into "outstanding" . And when I
:17:23. > :17:27.spoke to her late this afternoon, she told me why she thinks the
:17:28. > :17:33.Chinese are doing so well. I think there are two things. There
:17:34. > :17:36.are the methods they use, and we are already using those methods and
:17:37. > :17:43.seeing great result in our classrooms. There was also an
:17:44. > :17:46.attitude towards maths. Parents and students are pro mathematics. They
:17:47. > :17:53.see maths as the key to unlock a great future. We need to do that.
:17:54. > :17:59.Let us look at the methods. A lot of modern talk takes us back to how we
:18:00. > :18:08.used to do things. I used in Singapore mathematics in my primary
:18:09. > :18:14.schools. The students do rigorous timetables. The homework is done and
:18:15. > :18:19.marked and returned by the very next morning, so students get instant
:18:20. > :18:23.feedback. A lot is about rigour and intense teaching, so intense blocks
:18:24. > :18:28.of teaching. The little ones can do it. My little six`year`olds are
:18:29. > :18:33.doing Singapore maths and are only a year ahead of the students above
:18:34. > :18:43.them. It works. What about aspiration? What I'm dying to see is
:18:44. > :18:47.Chinese parents in action. There is a whole approach to mathematics and
:18:48. > :18:53.support for your child learning mathematics. We have to learn from
:18:54. > :19:01.over there. We can be a bit anti`maths, seen it as
:19:02. > :19:05.anti`creativity in the UK. Is to do with the way mathematics is taught?
:19:06. > :19:11.The teachers not make it interesting enough? If you look at the Chinese
:19:12. > :19:16.model, they not trying to entertain. They are teaching basic concepts,
:19:17. > :19:26.basic arithmetic in very intense blocks. Young people respect that.
:19:27. > :19:32.You remember that teacher who was rigorous and you remember it. Is it
:19:33. > :19:38.about discipline? Become back to that rigour and discipline.
:19:39. > :19:42.Youngsters love to learn, and every get them young and start laying the
:19:43. > :19:48.foundations of good arithmetic, I have no doubt we can be topping and
:19:49. > :19:52.beating the Chinese. We need to do it for our own economy and that each
:19:53. > :19:58.of these young people. Mathematics is key to all the best jobs now. It
:19:59. > :20:09.is a different world. Thank you very much. Outdoor swimming pools are
:20:10. > :20:14.read enough. Outdoor pools donated to village by a local duke or
:20:15. > :20:19.unique. That is a story in Beds. It was built by the Duke of Bedford for
:20:20. > :20:32.his staff, but tonight it is on the verge of closing the good.
:20:33. > :20:41.It is a miserable debris night. `` February. This has been here for a
:20:42. > :20:45.century. It is run by a group of trustees. The recent weather has not
:20:46. > :20:56.been kind to the pool. There is a lot of maintenance needed. Here is a
:20:57. > :21:00.trustee. What is the problem? Lack of people to organise and take
:21:01. > :21:06.responsibility to get things done. We need a committee and more people.
:21:07. > :21:09.We had a great year last year. We made good surplus, but unfortunately
:21:10. > :21:13.the people involved have got too much work to do in other areas and
:21:14. > :21:19.are not able to give their time to it. We are on the verge of closing
:21:20. > :21:23.through lack of people support, not a money. That will be a shame
:21:24. > :21:29.because this pool has been used by generations. It is quite unique. I
:21:30. > :21:33.should think every child in the village has used this pool for
:21:34. > :21:39.enjoyment over the years. Many have learned to swim here. It is
:21:40. > :21:44.virtually a unique situation. You can come and have a picnic with your
:21:45. > :21:50.family. It is not a swimming pool, it is a lie down and place to have
:21:51. > :21:57.fun. You have called a meeting. Are you confident you will get people to
:21:58. > :22:05.come forward? Yes. We have had a few names come forward. Thank you for
:22:06. > :22:08.coming tonight. The pool is open at May. Whether it is open this may.
:22:09. > :22:18.Whether it is over Miss Maple depends on what happens tonight. ``
:22:19. > :22:21.this may. Peterborough United have made it to
:22:22. > :22:25.a Wembley final for the first time in 14 years. They beat Swindon Town
:22:26. > :22:28.last night in the southern area final of the Johnstone's Paint
:22:29. > :22:31.Trophy, but only after a nervous penalty shoot`out. The first leg
:22:32. > :22:35.finished 2`2. Last night they came from a goal down to draw level and
:22:36. > :22:37.will play either Chesterfield or Fleetwood on March 30th.
:22:38. > :22:40.Life is never dull at Peterborough Utd. Promotions, relegations and now
:22:41. > :22:42.the chance to win their first cup final at the home of English
:22:43. > :23:00.football. He runs to the near side to salute
:23:01. > :23:03.the fans. Tommy Rowe is out of contract at the end of the season,
:23:04. > :23:06.but his spot kick could prove priceless. For much of last night's
:23:07. > :23:10.game against Swindon they struggled, conceding a scrappy goal after half
:23:11. > :23:13.an hour. Swindon should have scored a second but tired towards the
:23:14. > :23:16.end.Posh meanwhile showed plenty of pluck, and 15 minutes from time,
:23:17. > :23:22.their top scorer Britt Assombalonga took advantage. Tied at 3`3 on
:23:23. > :23:28.aggregate, and with no extra time being played, it came down to
:23:29. > :23:33.penalties. Swindon started and promptly wished they hadn't. One of
:23:34. > :23:38.two bad misses for the home side. It was 3`3 when Tommy Rowe stepped up
:23:39. > :23:42.to strike the winning penalty. And after a torrid winter of poor form
:23:43. > :23:53.in front of fewer fans, Posh at last have something to shout about. You
:23:54. > :23:55.can't underestimate how getting into a cup final changes everything. You
:23:56. > :24:01.noticed the feel`good factor last night. It lifts everyone. Going to
:24:02. > :24:06.Wembley, for a club like Peterborough, is a big deal. It is
:24:07. > :24:11.not like Manchester United where it happens every so often. It is a once
:24:12. > :24:14.in a lifetime opportunity. Manager Darren ferguson will be hoping a cup
:24:15. > :24:18.final can inspire his team to promotion via the play`offa and, who
:24:19. > :24:24.knows, it may not be their only date at Wembley this season.
