Good evening. The late formdr Scarborough Mayor Peter Jaconelli | :00:12. | :00:14. | |
could be posthumously stripped of his title following child sdx abuse | :00:15. | :00:18. | |
allegations. Mr Jaconelli, ` friend of the disgraced broadcaster Jimmy | :00:19. | :00:24. | |
Savile, died 15 years ago. @s we reported on the late news l`st | :00:25. | :00:26. | |
night, North Yorkshire Police's handling of the claims against both | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
men will now be examined by the Independent Police Complaints | :00:31. | :00:41. | |
Commission. Phil Chapman reports. The decision by North Yorkshire | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
Police to refer itself for investigation comes just wedks after | :00:44. | :00:46. | |
a BBC Inside Out investigathon into online claims that Peter Jaconelli | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
was a paedophile. After that the police said they wanted to speak to | :00:50. | :00:53. | |
at least five people, who s`y they were assaulted or propositioned as | :00:54. | :00:55. | |
children by Jaconelli. An online blog called Real Whitby | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
told inside out it had heard from a number of alleged victims who claim | :01:00. | :01:03. | |
they were abused. And today the man behind the blog is sceptical about | :01:04. | :01:06. | |
the police referral. I regard it as a positive | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
development. I have sceptichsm about how much we can rely on the IPCC to | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
do their job. After all, as everybody knows, most of thd IPCC | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
are former police officers `nd there is no doubt in my mind that there | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
has been at least a two gendration cover`up of this Jaconelli | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
situation. It's something I've known about since I was a nine`ye`r`old | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
boy. Everybody in Scarborough is aware of it, and yet for sole reason | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
Scarborough Council has lavhshed civic honours on Jimmy Saville and | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Peter Jaconelli, arguably two of the most prolific paedophiles in the | :01:38. | :01:39. | |
country. Trevor Harrington was 11 whdn he | :01:40. | :01:42. | |
worked for Jaconelli. He's said Jaconelli assaulted him in his van, | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
and that what was going on was well`known in Scarborough. | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
I would say that if the polhce force didn't know about it, then they must | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
have been the only people in Scarborough that didn't know about | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
it, and it's a bit of a bad reflection on them. | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
I am surprised it didn't cole out much earlier. But I am now very | :02:01. | :02:04. | |
pleased it has come out, and I think we should move forward. We can have | :02:05. | :02:07. | |
sympathy with the family relaining of Jaconelli, but I think wd've got | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
to have greater sympathy with the victims of sexual abuse. | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
Well, Woodlands Cemetery here in Scarborough is the final resting | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
place of these two men. Jimly Saville is buried in a paupdr's | :02:18. | :02:20. | |
grave, an unmarked pauper's grave, and Jaconelli is named as Alderman | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
Jaconelli on his headstone. And now people on both sides of the world | :02:25. | :02:28. | |
are calling for him to be stripped of all civic links to the area. Phil | :02:29. | :02:31. | |
Chapman, BBC Look North, Scarborough. | :02:32. | :02:42. | |
Children in Middlesbrough could be sent to secondary school earlier, to | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
try to improve failing exam results. That's just one radical proposal | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
being considered, after Ofsted said the local council needed to take | :02:49. | :02:51. | |
urgent action to improve thd town's schools. It said exam results for | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Middlesbrough's children were well below the national average. Stuart | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
Whincup reports. Chris Wain has been a head teacher | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
in Middlesbrough for 17 years. She says much of Ofsted's report was | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
unfair, made gross generalisations, and was often inaccurate. In fact, | :03:08. | :03:10. | |
more than 80% of Middlesbrotgh's primary schools are rated "good or | :03:11. | :03:17. | |
"outstanding". For anybody who works in a | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
Middlesbrough school, the commitment to the children of the town is huge, | :03:21. | :03:24. | |
and you put your life's work into it, whether you're a head tdacher or | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
a teacher or a teaching asshstant. And, as far as I can see, that | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
report, it wasn't a fair report Ofsted's report was damning. Exam | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
results for Middlesbrough's children were well`below the national | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
average. Pupil progress slowed down after primary school, and h`lf of | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
all children were at second`ry schools that were considered "less | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
than good". So why is Middldsbrough doing so badly? | :03:47. | :03:53. | |
Some of our higher attainers don't actually go on to Middlesbrough | :03:54. | :03:55. | |
secondary schools. And therdfore that is a bigger challenge for the | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
secondaries. We think English and Maths is the biggest challenge. We | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
do have a lot of children that don't achieve the grade C in their GCSEs | :04:04. | :04:11. | |
in both of those subjects. Much of the blame in the report is | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
levelled at the town's secondary schools, and the council adlits that | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
results have not been good dnough. Now one radical idea being | :04:19. | :04:21. | |
considered is to move children from primary schools to secondarx schools | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
earlier, so they'll find it easier to settle in. | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
In the half term before thex leave in the summer, primary school | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
children move up with their class teacher into the secondary school, | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
maybe four days a week. So they re still top dog in their prim`ry | :04:36. | :04:38. | |
school and they can do sports and the things that they like to do in | :04:39. | :04:41. | |
the last term. That's just one idea that whll be | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
put to Ofsted as the council finalises its action plan ahmed at | :04:46. | :04:48. | |
improving exam results. Stu`rt Whincup, BBC Look North, | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
Middlesbrough. The 18`year` old man who went | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
missing on a night out on Wddnesday in York, is a soldier based in the | :04:58. | :04:59. | |
city. Signaller Tyler Pearson hasn't been | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
seen since he entered the Rhver Ouse in the early hours of Thursday. | :05:04. | :05:08. | |
An underwater search has continued throughout today. It's the third | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
time this year divers have searched York's rivers. In January, Jackie | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
Roberts' daughter, Megan, stumbled into the River Ouse after a night | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
out with friends. It took wdeks to find her body. Now, Jackie's backing | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
a national alcohol awareness and river safety campaign. | :05:21. | :05:27. | |
It is getting harder for me, emotionally, as time goes on because | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
it's like I keep expecting to see her and, of course, I'm nevdr going | :05:31. | :05:34. | |
to see her again, and that's the hardest thing for me to copd with. | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
It's the frightening feeling of never being able to see her or speak | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
to her again, so I suppose getting involved with the campaign hs quite | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
a good way, because it's kedping her alive in some ways. I don't want her | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
to be forgotten. Police searching for a Teesside man | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
missing in the Lake District have released CCTV images of him. Matthew | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
Jordan, who's 20, is from Ntnthorpe. He was visiting the Windermdre area | :06:03. | :06:05. | |
with friends. These are the last confirmed sightings of Matthew, seen | :06:06. | :06:08. | |
here leaving the Stag's Head pub in Bowness in the early hours of | :06:09. | :06:12. | |
Thursday March 27th. He then returns a short time later, sits down, and | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
then heads off towards the Lake Road promenade. Anyone with any | :06:16. | :06:18. | |
information is asked to contact police. | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
That's all from me tonight. Whatever you're doing, have a great weekend. | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
Now it's over to Paul Moonex for the weekend weather forecast. M`ke it a | :06:27. | :06:28. | |
good one Paul. Mostly dry at the minute. M`ny | :06:29. | :06:43. | |
places will stay dry. If yot patches of missed here and there. As we head | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
west, the cloud will thicken up Computers for most of us no more | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
than five Celsius. Just a shade killer in parts of Northumbdrland. | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
Tomorrow, it mostly dry start in the East. Outbreaks of rain sprdading | :06:59. | :07:07. | |
eastwards throughout the dax. This room will become more persistent. | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
The temperatures will peak tomorrow at about 13 or 14 Celsius. Through | :07:13. | :07:22. | |
Sunday, a lot of cloud and outbreaks of rain. Quite breezy as well. Some | :07:23. | :07:29. | |
spells of rain to come on Monday. Next, the national forecast. | :07:30. | :07:32. | |
A few clear spells ahead of that for a time across the Midlands and | :07:33. | :08:09. | |
eastern England. Staying clear across the north-east of Scotland, | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
barring only patchy mist and fog. Temperatures could dip away a touch. | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
Generally, it is a mild night, as the cloud rolls in, accompanied by | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
the outbreaks of rain. A pretty grey start for most of us to the weekend. | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
A lot of cloud around. Always this rain around too, particularly across | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
western and northern areas. Some will be on the heavy side. The | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
further east you are, the better the chance of managing to just about | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
stay dry and avoid the rain. Tomorrow afternoon shows a cool | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
breeze on the southern coasts. Inland, the air is inherently still | :08:46. | :08:47. |
