Hello and welcome to the Look East late news. | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
Ipswich becomes the region's second opportunity area, | :00:07. | :00:09. | |
it will be get millions of pounds to raise | :00:10. | :00:11. | |
An inquest into the death of Dean Saunders at Chelmsford Prison | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
hears there was a "lack of leadership, supervision | :00:16. | :00:16. | |
and support" at the jail and it would be the region's biggest | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
We report on the transport challenges posed by | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
The switch has been named as one of the government's new opportunity | :00:24. | :00:46. | |
centres, the government 's target places where it is not young people | :00:47. | :00:48. | |
are failing to reach their potential. The towel in Sicily | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
intends to develop better ships, create links with universities and | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
colleges in building relationships with employers. Last year Norwich | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
became one of the first opportunity areas in the country. | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
Two months ago this high school was celebrating a leap then it Ofstead | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
rating from requires improvement to good. The government says not enough | :01:10. | :01:14. | |
schools are making progress. It is giving 6 million to schools in | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
Ipswich, to raise aspiration. Each opportunity area including this ends | :01:20. | :01:22. | |
in East Cambridgeshire will have a research school to share evidence on | :01:23. | :01:28. | |
boosting the performance of disadvantaged children. Justin | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
Greening was a Norwich after naming the city among the first batch of | :01:32. | :01:35. | |
opportunity areas. It is vital we leave no stone unturned to find out | :01:36. | :01:40. | |
what it will take to have them aim high and go along way in their | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
lives. Baroness separate former Education Secretary is welcome | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
opportunity areas. We definitely need them, certainly be social | :01:49. | :01:53. | |
mobility commission is delighted when the government announced it | :01:54. | :01:57. | |
would set it up. Because what we have done is identify areas where | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
children from poorer backgrounds were falling behind more rapidly | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
than their counterparts in affluent areas. We needed the extra | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
attention, the extra re-sources and the boost that these areas are going | :02:13. | :02:16. | |
to give us. The thousand word she will have to write them, that is | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
like a university level dissertation. The University of East | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
Anglia has an active programme to tackle the mobility problem, here a | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
Ph.D. Graduates judging the brightest ten and 11-year-olds. | :02:31. | :02:34. | |
Airlie is the key and the earlier you can do things the better it | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
isn't that is one of the problems with policy in this area this point, | :02:38. | :02:43. | |
the earlier you can talk to people about getting a good job and have a | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
negative even going to university and better it is fed them in June. | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
Teaching unions welcomed the government's concern over the impact | :02:51. | :02:54. | |
of deprivation on children's education but they fear the new | :02:55. | :02:56. | |
money will not be enough to offset damage done by spending cuts. The | :02:57. | :03:05. | |
principle of Chantrey Academy in Ipswich joined us and I asked them | :03:06. | :03:09. | |
for a reaction to the opportunity area programme. I think we are very | :03:10. | :03:14. | |
pleased with the announcement, it gives us the opportunity to work | :03:15. | :03:17. | |
with disadvantaged students to raise their aspirations and gives them an | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
opportunity to see what else is out there. There is a huge untapped | :03:22. | :03:27. | |
resource in this area which given the right chance you can get some | :03:28. | :03:29. | |
really talented people into those top positions. But the donor what to | :03:30. | :03:34. | |
expect or how to expected or how to get there. The government says | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
expert has a problem with social mobility. Why is that? Two reasons, | :03:39. | :03:45. | |
one is that a lot of the families in the area don't have the pioneers in | :03:46. | :03:52. | |
the family so they have no idea in terms of what going to university | :03:53. | :03:58. | |
can mean for them and their futures. Secondly, you have the aspirin | :03:59. | :04:02. | |
seeing it is not for me. We have to raise expectations and say it is for | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
you, it is just for students like you and there will be a job at the | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
end of it. After university you will go into a job and into a career. | :04:09. | :04:15. | |
Somewhere where you have a work ethic and go on and on improving and | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
improving and recognising the fact that your development doesn't just | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
stop at the end of the day. There is money that comes with being an | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
opportunity area, what would you like to see it spent on? We want to | :04:29. | :04:34. | |
see generational change, it is not about the next three or four years, | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
it is about getting the kids the results of the next three or four | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
years to deal with the shortfall but beyond that the knowledge and | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
expertise goes back into the community so the next generation | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
promotes the next generation promotes the next, until you | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
establish a learning culture in this area. Thank you. | :04:52. | :05:06. | |
Dean Saunders electrocuted himself in his cell in prison last January | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
despite warnings from his family that he was suicidal. | :05:12. | :05:14. | |
Day eight of the inquest and Dean Saunders's parents and his partner | :05:15. | :05:20. | |
Clare have had to sit through disturbing evidence. The 23-year-old | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
died in January last year after allegedly hitting himself with a | :05:24. | :05:27. | |
television caught in his prison cell. Within days of arriving he was | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
taken off suicide watch and put on half hourly observation. Health care | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
at the prison operated by care UK, the inquest that heard that none of | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
the team who made the decision to take Dean of constant watch was | :05:40. | :05:42. | |
medically qualified. Today the company's medical director said that | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
was unacceptable. Care UK she said that since tightened up its | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
procedures and the commission must now be part of the team. | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
A review into Dean Saunders's definitely no lack of leadership | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
supervision and support and in her opinion as a former prison GP Doctor | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
Bromley said she felt Dean should not have been in prison, he was | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
clearly unwell she said and it was not the right place to be. Earlier a | :06:09. | :06:14. | |
forensics psychiatrist who assessed Dean before he died still the | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
inquest he was in a place of safety but noted that without safety his | :06:19. | :06:21. | |
mental state with be likely to deteriorate further. Dean hadn't | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
on remand, the Governor of on remand, the Governor of | :06:26. | :06:30. | |
Chelmsford prison for eight after the death except that this was a | :06:31. | :06:34. | |
prison had a duty of care to ensure prison had a duty of care to ensure | :06:35. | :06:37. | |
the prisoners could speak to their families. The review into Dean | :06:38. | :06:41. | |
Saunders's that said it was both predictable and preventable, was | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
killed in prison and care UK city have made a number of changes but a | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
year on some of the recommendations have yet to be fully implement it. | :06:52. | :07:00. | |
We have been looking at plans to build a new power station on the | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
Suffolk coast. The new Sizewell C would be up | :07:05. | :07:05. | |
here, there would be a contractors compounds over | :07:06. | :07:09. | |
here and accommodation for 2,400 Our environment reporter | :07:10. | :07:11. | |
Richard Daniel reports now on the transport challenges | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
for the area around Sizewell. Middleton Moor on a winter's | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
morning, an idyllic scene It sits on the B1122, | :07:21. | :07:22. | |
the main route for Sizewell traffic. EDF estimates nearly 5000 vehicles | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
pass by here each day, the construction of Sizewell C | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
could had another 2000. Plans to improve the road's junction | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
at Yoxford and introduce new speed EDF are talking about putting 1500 | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
trucks per day down this road, that is 100 an hour down | :07:41. | :07:49. | |
a little country road. Now to give you a sense of scale, | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
there are sections of motorway in this country that don't take that | :07:54. | :07:56. | |
number of HGVs. EDF points to the Hinkley C project | :07:57. | :08:01. | |
in Somerset where contract worth ?460 million have | :08:02. | :08:04. | |
already been placed. It says Sizewell C would bring | :08:05. | :08:05. | |
similar economic benefits. But that could also mean an extra | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
1300 vehicles per day passing This hazardous corner in Farnham may | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
have to be widened or Farnham and neighbouring Strafford St Andrew | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
could be bypassed. His caravan business | :08:20. | :08:26. | |
relies on passing trade. Massive implications, | :08:27. | :08:32. | |
I don't think we really know what those implications are until it | :08:33. | :08:34. | |
actually happens but it is a little bit late then, | :08:35. | :08:36. | |
we are as seasonal business, that relies on passing traffic, | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
we've been here since the 60s and we would like to see it | :08:40. | :08:41. | |
continue like that. EDF is proposing to park and ride | :08:42. | :08:50. | |
sites at Wickham Market and Darsham. And up to five freight train Friday, | :08:51. | :08:54. | |
possibly on a new track built That would mean upgrades | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
to the east Suffolk line EDF say Sizewell C would bring | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
significant benefits to the local economy but campaigners say not | :09:06. | :09:15. | |
at any price. The battle lines are | :09:16. | :09:17. | |
already being drawn. This region is bucking the trend | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
in the latest unemployment figures. The national figure | :09:20. | :09:27. | |
is down, but here it's up 4.6% of the workforce | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
here is unemployed compared One of the biggest hospitals | :09:30. | :09:32. | |
in the region has come out The Care Quality Commission says | :09:33. | :09:42. | |
significant improvements have been made at Addenbrooke's Hospital | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
in Cambridge thanks to In 18 months it has has moved | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
'from inadequate' to 'good". It follows a visit by | :09:48. | :09:53. | |

with Chris But from me, goodnight. Dry weather with others across the | :10:15. | :10:24. | |
region tonight, we see clear spells as well but especially the further | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
south and east, arts of Essex could drop off 2-3 or 4 degrees and maybe | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
even a -5 for a low tonight. North and of the region near freezing | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
under more cloud and into Thursday cloudy conditions, Misty and murky | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
for West Norfolk but otherwise some bright spells breaking through the | :10:43. | :10:46. | |
cloud at times and highs on Thursday reaching around 4-6 . About average | :10:47. | :10:51. | |
but feeling chilly under cloudy conditions. Misty and murky I think, | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
or in the way of cloud on Friday and high-temperature reaching up to 6 | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
degrees, maybe seven at the coast. The National forecast is up next, | :11:00. | :11:01. | |
this is the next few days, no great changes over | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
the next few days, more sunshine on the way. | :11:06. | :11:12. | |
Despite high-pressure sitting across the country so only slow changes in | :11:13. | :11:20. | |
the weather, we have had a variety of different weathers, for example | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
this beautiful sunset in Southampton which was shared by a Weather | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
Watcher, but grey and misty in Derby thanks to an awful lot of cloud | :11:30. | :11:33. | |
around and very little deviation by day or night from the rather grey | :11:34. | :11:36. | |
routine. That is because we have a weather | :11:37. | :11:42. | |
front, albeit very weak and very little wind to move the cloud and | :11:43. | :11:43. |
