Tonight we bring you an exclusive report on how | :01:34. | :01:35. | |
a head teacher is being acctsed of misusing school funds whhle | :01:36. | :01:38. | |
Speaking for the first time, the former Chair of Governors at Gad's | :01:39. | :01:49. | |
Hill School in Higham near Rochester John Melville told BBC South East | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
Today that the headmaster D`vid Craggs awarded himself yearly pay | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
increases running into tens of thousands of pounds, and that | :01:56. | :01:57. | |
the school's credit card was used to buy fine wine and tickets | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
Our Correspondent Mark Norm`n has this investigation. | :02:01. | :02:11. | |
They are a small school comlunity. We do not just focus on academics. | :02:12. | :02:23. | |
Gad's Hill School in Higham. It describes itself as fibre and an | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
successful. `` vibrant and successful. Gad's Hill School is run | :02:29. | :02:35. | |
as a charity and parents assume their money is spent wisely, but now | :02:36. | :02:39. | |
the former chair of governors has gone public with claims that the | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
headmaster, David Craggs, h`s used school funds inappropriatelx, and | :02:45. | :02:50. | |
admitting that the board did not spot it, and decided to keep it | :02:51. | :02:58. | |
quiet. I was the disappointdd, angry and upset at the fact that the | :02:59. | :03:06. | |
headmaster had used charitable funds, and I'd assume we will have a | :03:07. | :03:12. | |
of evidence to confirm that. The advice we got from our solicitor was | :03:13. | :03:16. | |
that we should refer the matter to the police. The consensus of the | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
Board of governors was that we should not do that. The govdrnors | :03:25. | :03:31. | |
are responsible for finances, but they had has a two day control of | :03:32. | :03:38. | |
the money. However, in 2010, the governors and discovered th`t the | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
headmaster had been awarding himself annual pay rises of tens of | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
thousands of pounds, apparently without prior approval, for ten | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
years. When David Craggs got the job in 2000, his salary was a lhttle | :03:52. | :03:57. | |
over ?35,000 a year. Five ydars later, it was up to over ?100,0 0. | :03:58. | :04:09. | |
By 2011, he was paid almost ?270,000, a rise of over 380%. I | :04:10. | :04:15. | |
advised the review board th`t he had set his own salary. Their initial | :04:16. | :04:19. | |
reaction was, they were agh`st at this, and I asked what we could do | :04:20. | :04:25. | |
about it. Eventually, they had signed an amended contract of | :04:26. | :04:32. | |
employment and agreed to a pay cut of ?70,000. That same documdnt also | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
shows that they had master chosen not to contest concerns abott how | :04:38. | :04:39. | |
charitable resources might have been used for his personal benefht. | :04:40. | :04:52. | |
The school issued a statement on behalf of the headmaster, s`ying the | :04:53. | :04:58. | |
allegations had been raised in 012, and an investigation at the time | :04:59. | :05:01. | |
concluded that the headmastdr had not breached any school polhcy or | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
procedure and would not be disciplined `` subject to any | :05:07. | :05:09. | |
disciplinary process. They `lso pointed out that the matter had been | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
referred to the Charity Comlission, which had concluded that thd school | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
had acted appropriately and saw no need for further action. However, | :05:18. | :05:21. | |
when the governors told the Charity Commission about the salary issue, | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
they did not mention concerns about how thousands of pounds werd being | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
spent on the school's credit card. They told us they had not rdceived | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
any notification of alleged misappropriation of funds, `nd that | :05:35. | :05:37. | |
they regarded any such concdrns as very serious. Private education is | :05:38. | :05:46. | |
not cheap, and many parents struggle to pay the fees and afford the fees, | :05:47. | :05:52. | |
and if they are under any stspicion that these are not being usdd for | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
proper purposes, been quite rightly, in many ways, they will be | :05:59. | :06:02. | |
reluctance to send their chhldren to a school. Parents at the school gate | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
reacted to the news. I do not want to reply on camera. I think he has | :06:08. | :06:16. | |
done a good job here, and if he has been paid a lot, I think he has | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
earned every pending `` penny. IMS going to say anything on thhs one. | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
`` I will not say anything `bout this on television but I have my | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
opinion. John Melville resigned in April and two other governors | :06:36. | :06:38. | |
followed in May, but had talked about financial concerns in their | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
letter of resignation, and `ll three decided that the decision to not go | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
public was wrong. I had to tow the line, we all have to, having made | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
the decision. I have subseqtently resigned from the school, and feel | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
that I can now give my views as opposed to towing the line. | :06:59. | :07:06. | |
The school motto is, to thine own self be true. I'd think the actions | :07:07. | :07:17. | |
that IMX posing here make a mockery out of that. The Charity Colmission | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
has written to the school, `nd in the last 24 hours, the acting chair | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
of governors at Gad's Hill School has told us they are fully | :07:26. | :07:26. | |
cooperating with their requdsts And Mark joins us live | :07:27. | :07:30. | |
from the Medway Towns where many Mark, the Charity Commission aren't | :07:31. | :07:32. | |
launching an investigation xet, It is not yet a full investhgation. | :07:33. | :07:45. | |
The commission told us they were unaware of any concerns abott how | :07:46. | :07:52. | |
money was being spent at thd school in Higham. They told me the trustees | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
have a responsibility to report any alleged this appropriation of funds | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
in what is called a serious incident report. The new acting chair of | :08:01. | :08:04. | |
governors has been in touch with us and she now admits that the Charity | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
Commission was only informed about a number of these issues, and this is | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
the school is cooperating whth the commission, but add that thd chair | :08:13. | :08:19. | |
of governors, John Melville, was aware of the investigations at the | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
school and the outcomes and that he remained in post until he rdsigned | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
earlier this year, but they are very clear that the headmaster h`s the | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
full confidence of school staff and the governing body. | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
Facing daily abuse because of their family, the Kent MPs who | :08:36. | :08:40. | |

A Sussex war veteran who stffers from leukaemia says he feels | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
"violated" after he claimed he was robbed for ?40 while he lay injured | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
Craig Stevens, a former RAF engineer from Bexhill, thought a | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
Good Samaritan was coming to his aid after he broke his arm `nd cut | :09:00. | :09:02. | |
But the passer`by started going through | :09:03. | :09:06. | |

Craig Stevens was injured so badly in his crash he underwent three | :09:10. | :09:21. | |

they believe is connected to the robbery. The robbery took place on | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
the 7th of June on the Uxbrhdge Road. You have to be a diffdrent | :10:05. | :10:08. | |
creature to do that, becausd that is not acceptable, and to think that my | :10:09. | :10:15. | |
father could have died... Mr Stevens has interval leukaemia and says he | :10:16. | :10:22. | |
feels violated by the inciddnt. `` inch euro bull. The police say a man | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
left the scene as officers came to deal with the scene and say they are | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
doing everything they can to trace the person responsible for the | :10:32. | :10:32. | |
alleged theft. The former headmaster of an | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
East Sussex prep school attdnded by Boris Johnson has been arrested | :10:37. | :10:40. | |
on suspicion of child sex offences. Clive Williams, who's 49, | :10:41. | :10:45. | |
was the head at Ashdown House Preparatory School in | :10:46. | :10:47. | |
Forest Row for more than 25 years. He was questioned by detecthves | :10:48. | :10:50. | |
in connection with alleged offences of sexual assault | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
and child neglect against ptpils. Police in Kent have found cocaine | :10:53. | :10:54. | |
with an estimated street value of ?25 million hidden | :10:55. | :11:03. | |
among a shipment of bananas. The Metropolitan Police tracked | :11:04. | :11:05. | |
a lorry carrying the Colombhan bananas from the port of Dover | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
yesterday morning to The cocaine was hidden | :11:10. | :11:12. | |
inside plastic fruit. Three Colombian men | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
have been arrested. Brighton and Hove City Council's | :11:16. | :11:22. | |
policy and resources committee has failed to agree plans to put up | :11:23. | :11:24. | |
council tax by 5.9% next ye`r. The Green Party says | :11:25. | :11:30. | |
the rise would safeguard services amid a ?25 million shortfall it | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
faces next year. This year, | :11:34. | :11:35. | |
the party wanted to raise t`x by 4.75% but members voted for Labour's | :11:36. | :11:37. | |
proposal for a 1.99% rise instead. Our political reporter Ellid Price | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
joins us from Brighton now, Ellie, there's a bit of deja`vu | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
about this proposal. The same issues as last timd. The | :11:45. | :11:58. | |
green a minority administration does not have the support of the Labour | :11:59. | :12:01. | |
and Conservative group, and even if they did, it would require ` | :12:02. | :12:07. | |
referendum. What is different this time are the numbers. A proposed | :12:08. | :12:11. | |
increase of 5.9%, even more than last time. The Green Party says that | :12:12. | :12:17. | |
would generate an extra ?7 lillion for disability services and adult | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
care, and they say it would cost an extra ?1 and 48p per week for the | :12:22. | :12:27. | |
average household. This will be discussed again in December and then | :12:28. | :12:30. | |
in February. We are likely to feel some d?j? vu again, because the | :12:31. | :12:36. | |
likelihood of the other parties supporting this measure and it's | :12:37. | :12:37. | |
going through, very slim. It's long been illegal to | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
discriminate against someond on the grounds of race, relhgion or | :12:45. | :12:47. | |
sexuality but caste discrimhnation is a growing problem in the UK. | :12:48. | :12:50. | |
Now, the Gravesham MP Adam Holloway is calling for the government to | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
introduce new legislation to prevent people suffering abuse | :12:54. | :12:55. | |
and prejudice because they `re considered to be from familx | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
of a lower social status. Our political editor Louise Stewart | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
reports. There was worldwide outrage when to | :13:04. | :13:16. | |
girls were hung in India after being raped and murdered. Caste is not | :13:17. | :13:26. | |
confined to South East Asia. It is a growing problem here in the South | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
East. This caste problem we're having in this country, it followed | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
us from India. It should not happen. Our government needs to | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
protect people in this country, because we desperately need the | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
help. This man tells me discrimination is common in | :13:45. | :13:48. | |
community care, and describds a recent incident involving hhs young | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
nephew who tried to take a taxi home. The driver refused to take | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
this fair home because somebody had mentioned a caste and identhfied | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
himself from a different colmunity. The driver did not want his car .. | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
He said that men have dirtidd his car by entering. Now the and he `` | :14:10. | :14:16. | |
MPs are joining forces to fhght against the discrimination. We do | :14:17. | :14:19. | |

Our Environment Correspondent Yvette Austin reports on how local food is | :15:48. | :15:50. | |
The sheet and the cattle ard always a favourite at this show. Btt | :15:51. | :16:02. | |
increasingly, there is a focus on the other end of the production | :16:03. | :16:06. | |
line, food, and especially hf it is locally produced. But the government | :16:07. | :16:09. | |
thinks local producers could take their marketing a step highdr by a | :16:10. | :16:14. | |
racing the European protectdd food name scheme. There is this thing | :16:15. | :16:19. | |
called protective suit names that we can use to protect local food, and | :16:20. | :16:27. | |
we are keen to have more of them. It adds to the identity and adds value | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
to the product. This ruler has got its ale on the restricted lhst. In | :16:34. | :16:41. | |
his gut to use water from a canned artesian well, lashings of Kentish | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
hops in there as well. You put all of that together, you end up with | :16:48. | :16:52. | |
this unique beer style. Othdr producers say they would consider | :16:53. | :16:55. | |
applying to join the list. Ht is about assigning an area and what is | :16:56. | :17:01. | |
special about it and relevance. It might be the variety of applying | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
that we use or the slope whdre the area of the village, but it is a way | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
to draw more attention to your specific area. Not all of the food | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
is sourced locally. Here, you can try a crocodile burger were even a | :17:16. | :17:22. | |
zebra steaks. Nice for a ch`nge but on the whole, people like something | :17:23. | :17:27. | |
closer to home. It is an environmental issue with food miles, | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
but we also want to support our local farmers. It is much bdtter | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
quality. This ice cream is just amazing. It is special. It hs made | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
better. The people know abott their product. For these young farmers it | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
was a learning experience. But a sheet making a did for freedom was | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
not going to get the better of the judge. | :17:52. | :18:03. | |

back in 1934. Worn into the brewing family, he was a dedicated rally | :19:21. | :19:29. | |
enthusiast. He wanted for ?875. My father took me down to the garage. | :19:30. | :19:37. | |
We put the wheels on it. We actually went out, there was very little | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
traffic, and we did 60 mph will stop this was a great speed `` mhles per | :19:42. | :19:48. | |
hour. This was a great speed, Ira member it well. This is one family | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
heirloom that has not been `llowed to sit in gather dust. It is a | :19:53. | :20:02. | |
challenge, and that the ped`ls are the wrong way around. It is | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
extraordinarily heavy when ht is going slowly am a but it drhves | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
well. When you put your foot on the throttle, it pulls around the corner | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
very smoothly. I am always remembering Mike grandfather, when | :20:15. | :20:19. | |

future shows in Russian and Arabic. Well, tonight he's back | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
in his home town performing to raise Sara ,you're actually in thd | :21:06. | :21:08. | |
Izzard Theatre? Yes, I am. This is the colldge's new | :21:09. | :21:26. | |
theatre complex. It was a bden a few months ago by any Izzard and it is | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
named after him. He is here to perform for four nights. Last night | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
was his first night. How is it working? It is desired being in a | :21:38. | :21:45. | |
theatre that is named after me. But it is great. You are explorhng an | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
increasing number of foreign`language or. I think we have | :21:50. | :21:50. | |
a clip of you in French. You are obviously very comfortable | :21:51. | :22:11. | |
in French and can interact with the audience, but you are not stopping | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
there. I did two months in Germany and nice but German there and die | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
have done some Spanish. I al encouraging other people to come | :22:22. | :22:27. | |
over here. This is the first French guy that is going to do an hour for | :22:28. | :22:31. | |
a time at the festival. This is your first time doing this much hn | :22:32. | :22:35. | |
English. How much is a translation and how much do you have to adjust | :22:36. | :22:39. | |
your set? I try to not change my set, just to explain it to the | :22:40. | :22:43. | |
bridge audience, and they understand me. The stripper British audience. | :22:44. | :22:50. | |
We are obsessed that we havd the British sense of humour, but you | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
think it is not the case. Htmour is human and its references ard | :22:55. | :22:59. | |
national. I was talking abott the president of France in Paris, but | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
did he talk about strange pdople on the bus, talking about getthng the | :23:05. | :23:09. | |
train down here... I cannot say that like you say it. It is hard to say | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
that. But it works and people understand me and I am curious of | :23:17. | :23:20. | |
your culture, but I'd talk `bout my life and it works, they unddrstand | :23:21. | :23:25. | |
me. We are but surrealist comedians, so we both talked a lot abott | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
chickens. The influence of Lonty Python is around the world. He is | :23:29. | :23:34. | |
one of the five surrealist comedians in France. There are not a lot in | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
France and we are trying to change that. Thank you both of us for | :23:39. | :23:45. | |
joining `` you for joining ts. That was breaking up a little bit, | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
apologies. These days, everx phone has a camera, and it is hard to | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
remember when getting a holhday snap was actually quite a big de`l. There | :23:56. | :24:00. | |
used to be armies of photography 's `` photographers who would offer to | :24:01. | :24:04. | |
take your picture on the be`ch. Now an exhibition of his picturds | :24:05. | :24:07. | |
donated by the public has gone on display in Canterbury, and ht offers | :24:08. | :24:16. | |
exacerbating insight into d`ys gone by. A snap from Sunbeam could make | :24:17. | :24:25. | |
you feel like a king or quedn. They kids later, people are keen to see | :24:26. | :24:29. | |
if they are in these `` dec`des later, people are keen to sde if | :24:30. | :24:32. | |
they are in these photographs. And he visited these areas on your `` if | :24:33. | :24:38. | |
you visited these areas on xour holiday, Sunbeam were there, on the | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
beach and on the prom. This snapshot was created by you, when an appeal | :24:43. | :24:50. | |
went out for Sunbeam photos, and the response was overwhelming. 30,0 0 of | :24:51. | :24:53. | |
your cherished images came flooding in. Although a picture is t`ken in | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
black and white, you can sed the clothes start to change, thd | :25:00. | :25:02. | |
president start to be a bit more liberal, a bit more free, `` the | :25:03. | :25:09. | |
poses start to be a bit mord liberal, a bit more free. There is a | :25:10. | :25:14. | |
sense of the sunshine holid`y, happy snaps of the 70s. The company was | :25:15. | :25:22. | |
exposed to competition in the 7 s, because cameras became cheaper and | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
we took our own photographs. There was a discovery that Sunbeal did far | :25:29. | :25:31. | |
more than taking pictures on holiday, but while they worked, and | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
also their daily life. In its heyday, Sunbeam processed 34,00 for | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
the rest a day. It means st`y with the sites that come about when | :25:42. | :25:44. | |
disaster struck, the photographers were always on the scene. This | :25:45. | :25:55. | |
exhibition will capture holhday snaps from over four decades. | :25:56. | :26:01. | |
And finally, a man who was trying t return home to France on a Rickshaw | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
has been helped by Sussex Police after he took a wrong. | :26:05. | :26:08. | |
The Frenchman mistakenly pedalled onto the busy A27 near Lewes as he | :26:09. | :26:11. | |
Police advised him that it was to dangerous to be | :26:12. | :26:15. | |
In heavy rain they escorted him safely to the other end | :26:16. | :26:20. | |
of the dual carriageway where he was able to join a cycle path. | :26:21. | :26:26. | |
The weather has not been looking good. It is not looking much better | :26:27. | :26:36. | |
for the weekends. Not many of us managed to get too many sunny spell | :26:37. | :26:41. | |
today. Showers around today and some disappointing temperatures, up to | :26:42. | :26:47. | |
about 18 Celsius. As we go hnto this evening, we hold onto a lot about | :26:48. | :26:52. | |
cloud, so it will be quite picky as well. This temperature is not really | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
topping too far from the daxtime highs, with lows of the 50 or 6 | :26:57. | :27:01. | |
Celsius, and one or two showers around. The weekend, showers on the | :27:02. | :27:06. | |
way, not all the time, but certainly for a lot of the time, and cloudy at | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
times as well. Fairly humid as well. That is the main thing for the | :27:12. | :27:16. | |
weekend, particularly for the nights. As he gets into the | :27:17. | :27:20. | |
afternoon, we might see ABE `` bit more in the way of sunshine. Some of | :27:21. | :27:26. | |
the showers will be quite hdavy but the temperatures are starting to | :27:27. | :27:32. | |
lift, so we have highs of 23, 2 Celsius, even making it up to about | :27:33. | :27:37. | |
20 Celsius on the coast. It will be warmer tomorrow with bits and pieces | :27:38. | :27:41. | |
of sunshine as well. We havd showery rain pushing in from the West and it | :27:42. | :27:46. | |
will be fairly heavy at timds and it continues through the night. Those | :27:47. | :27:53. | |
of 60 or 17 Celsius. `` lows of 16 or 17 Celsius. The showery rain will | :27:54. | :27:58. | |
start to clear from the west later on in the day, but probably some | :27:59. | :28:02. | |
rather heavy showers and sthll to follow, but Sunday night, a much | :28:03. | :28:07. | |
more comparable night, so slightly cooler under clear skies. Monday, | :28:08. | :28:12. | |
much buying and drier, and Tuesday is not too bad either, and ht might | :28:13. | :28:16. | |
even get to 29 or 30 degrees by the end of the week. | :28:17. | :28:20. | |
We have plans that involve being outdoors this weekend! 13 ndxt | :28:21. | :28:25. | |
weekend? Blimey! Have a good weekend, whichever way it goes. | :28:26. | :28:26. | |
Goodbye. Imagine if you could | :28:27. | :28:34. | |
talk to the animals. Zoologist Lucy Cooke | :28:35. | :28:37. | |
is going to show us how. This is the first example we know of | :28:38. | :28:43. | |
of infrared communication. This is amazing. | :28:44. | :28:46. | |
So this is a dolphin greeting? | :28:47. | :28:51. |
