And Samuel Ljackson Stars in the latest king kong movie. Well get mark kerdmodes take on that and more in the film review at 5 45. Good evening and welcome to bbc news at five. The Education SecretaryJustine Greening has been heckled by headteachers after she defended Government Plans for more Grammar Schools in england. She was addressing the conference of the association of school and College Leaders. She insisted that Grammar Schools help disadvantaged children, but the unions General Secretary said there was no evidence that they raise standards or improve social mobility. 0ur Education correspondent Gillian Hargreaves reports. Peter woodman at the weald school might be a head teacher, but he still likes to work at the chalk face, partly because he enjoys it and partly because it saves money for the shcool. The only reason we can survive is we are carrying forward money from last year, if the government stick to their pledges with the cash flow and budget, we will be making cuts of around £70,000 every year, year on year. Peter is one of dozens of heads in Southern England who wrote to parents informing them of the impact of cuts. In a poll of more than 1000 members of the union almost three quarters said they had had to make cuts to gcse or vocational courses in the last 12 months. The most common subjects to have been removed were design and technology, performing arts courses, music and german. Many teachers reported bigger class sizes to save money. Headteachers gathered in birmingham this morning for the first of a series of teachers conferences where cuts dominate the conversation. Its the first time Education SecretaryJustine Greening has laid out the governments case about how schools should operate in these straitened times. The Education SecretaryJustine Greening has told headteachers that while there is no more money she will do her utmost to help them ease their way through the worst financial pressures in schools for 20 years. Its really annoying to find government constantly saying funding has never been higher. Thats true because weve got more students and because of inflation. Weve got an 8 cut and were expected to continue delivering quality. How difficult is it at your school . I think like many schools across the country we are all struggling to make ends meet. Its absolutely dire, were having to make cuts to our curriculum and its untenable, really. The government points out class sizes are at their lowest level for a decade and that £40 billion is being spent on schools in england this year, the highest cash figure ever. With me is our correspondent sarah campbell. The fact that there were those interruptions while Justine Greening was talking shows the strength of feeling. This is the Head Teachers conference and they tend not to have those big shows of emotion. We would like to show you, because normally we have these conferences filmed, but the cameras were not allowed in today which is interesting in itself. The union said it was their decision and they wanted an open response from the Secretary Of State and for her not to be constrained by the presence of tv cameras, so that is why we could not show you. But it was in the questions and answers after she had given her speech. She said Grammar Schools helped to close the Attainment Gap between well off and who wrote children. That is the point where she was heckled and people shouted no rubbish and a couple of dozen of people made a lot of noise and it interrupted her and afterwards the president did acknowledge the interruption and it showed the strength of feeling. We know Grammar Schools are a contentious issue, but it is also an issue about budgets and money which has been underlying this entire conference. This comes days after money was allocated for new preschools and Grammar Schools in the budget but State Schools are saying they have problems at the moment. The government points out that the £40 billion budget this year is the highest it has ever been for schools, but Pupil Numbers have risen, there are costs such as pay and teacher pensions and National Insurance contributions which also fought on the shoulders of employers. This shows a real time cut for pupils in england of about 78 . Cut for pupils in england of about 7 8 . Much of this conference has been dealing with that and talking about how schools are cutting exam courses, increased class sizes and cutting back on trips and clubs and there are significant issues in england. The Funding Issue really fed into the bad feeling in the room as well as the Grammar School issue itself. Offset as a new head, what have we been hearing from her . The inspectors for schools in england. Amanda spielman was appointed in january. This is the first time she had to address the headteachers in the schools she will be inspecting. Much of her speech touched on issues raised by teachers like workloads, and she acknowledged they had a high workload and 0fsted woodwork to try and reduce that, not least because of the workload and 0fsted inspectors. But her main focus will be on how the National Curriculum is implemented. She highlighted insta nces implemented. She highlighted instances where pupils who might drag down results are moved, where the curriculum is narrowed in order to improve School League table results. She talked about playing the system and using qualifications inappropriately. The european computer driving licence, which is said to be worth a gcse, but there are reports that the study time required to pass it can be as low as three days, which is not compatible to other subjects. She received polite applause, as you would expect ata polite applause, as you would expect at a headteachers conference. They are waiting to see how she will compare to her predecessor. Lets discuss some of that in relation to headteachers. Mary sandell is the head of Forest School in winnersh in berkshire. Shes written to parents to tell them she would be resigning in august in protest at the state of school funding. Mary sandelljoins me now from windsor. Is it purely funding that is driving you out . Is this all about resources 7 you out . Is this all about resources . Yes, it is, u nfortu nately. Resources . Yes, it is, unfortunately. So the impact on your school is what . 0n unfortunately. So the impact on your school is what . On your pupils is what . There are so many impacts and also on the staff as well. Staff are working harder, so there are bigger teaching groups, fewer subjects, fewer resources , teaching groups, fewer subjects, fewer resources, including things like it and textbooks. What happens ina like it and textbooks. What happens in a situation like this, when there isa in a situation like this, when there is a landscape of cuts, morale is very low both for the pupils and the staff. That is the kind of environment that schools are becoming. So you have actually removed some subjects from the curriculum that pupils used to study. You have simply remove them because you do not have the money to staff that many subjects. Is that accurate . Absolutely. Last year at gcse week at Food Technology. Give it isa gcse week at Food Technology. Give it is a Boys Programme at School It Isa it is a Boys Programme at school it is a crying shame. With a level subjects with low Pupil Numbers we are cutting them. Next year from september there will be no spanish a level in year 12, further maths. 0urdrama A Level in year 12, further maths. 0ur Drama Teacher is going to teach year 12 year acting together and possibly after school to save money and that is the way things are going. When the Department For Education says the government has protected the cause Schools Budget in real terms since 2010, we had various in real terms since 2010, we had various announcements in real terms since 2010, we had various announcements in the budget on wednesday. What is your response when you hear the government defending its spending . Well, i am at the chalk face and i do not know whether i have different years because it is nowhere near me and i cannot use it on my pupils. The fact that they are about to spend money on free schools and Grammar Schools is wrong in my opinion. That is the wrong direction, we should be funding existing schools and if there is a need for further places expand existing schools and invest in education for the future. In 2017i should not be a teacher having to cut subjects and in large class sizes. Do you talk to other headteachers in your area or other parts of the country . Do you feel that yours is a shared experience . do. The only thing about working in this case we have been the lowest funded borough in the uk for the last 10 15 years, so it is hitting us last 10 15 years, so it is hitting us first and hardest. We get £4300 per pupil per year which should way short of other barriers and it is not enough. If we want to give choice and we want children to fire their passions, we need to keep the curriculum brought. We are now coming down the global Pecking Order and we have less and less money. Thank you very much for your time. I think she has lost the audio connection. We could hear everything she said to us and she has written to parents to say she will be leaving in august specifically because of funding. We will be talking to the former head of 0fsted after half past. A man who admitted killing a child actor and his aunt after a High Speed Police chase has been sentenced to 12 years. He was on licence at the time and he had 53 previous convictions and he said he was reckless and stupid when he drove into the ten year old and his grandmother rosie cooper in south london in penge last august. Downing street says it is confident it will meet its own deadline of the end of march for triggering the start of britains departure from the european union. It comes as eu leaders meet in brussels to shore up unity between the other 26 nations. 0ur Correspondent ben wright has this report. This does not quite as usual this morning as 27 eu heads of government gathered without britain. Within weeks the uk will start to undertake its decades long relationship with the eu and try to build a new one. Everyone here expects the divorce to be difficult. A crucial player on the eu side will be this man, donald tasker, re elected yesterday to the job of president of the European Council which represents eu leaders. He says it will take only two days for the eu to have a First Response to theresa mays lettered trigger in article 50. Todays debate was not about brexit, and i thinkjohn god uk can also confirm this opinion, but we are well prepared for it and we will be ready in 48 hours. The president of the European Commission said he hoped brexit might not be for ever. I do not like brexit because i would like to be in the same boat as the british. The day will come when the british Will Re Enterthe will come when the british will re enter the boat, will come when the british Will Re Enterthe boat, i hope. Will come when the british will reenter the boat, i hope. In a fortnight eu leaders will meet in italy to celebrate 60 years since the Treaty Of Rome was signed, a Foundation Stone of the european union, but brexit will undoubtedly overs ha d ow union, but brexit will undoubtedly overshadow the party. Theresa may, who left the summit last night, insists she will trigger the start brexit by the end of the month and the Foreign Secretary has been clear about one aspect of the talks to come, the future of the cost of access to european markets. Come, the future of the cost of access to european marketsm come, the future of the cost of access to european markets. It is not reasonable for the uk having left the eu to continue to make vast budget payments. I think everybody understands that and that is the reality. But they will have to be compromises in talks about money, trade, the rights of eu and uk citizens and more. An eu state has never left the club before. The risks for both sides are high. Ben joins us now from our brussels studio. In terms of Whatjean Claudejuncker had to say, was a romantic notion . Was it serious . He has a very twinkly turn of phrase and he is a bit of a tease and i think he knew what he was saying. He deeply regrets brexit is happening and so do other eu leaders. He thinks it is a mistake for britain. He thinks both the eu and britain will lose out. He does not want it to happen, but he does not think within his lifetime we will be knocking on the door asking for re entry. They know it will happen and in a way it is already happening. The formal negotiations cannot start yet until theresa may triggers article 50 in a letter, but she was not in the talks this morning while the remaining 27 think about the future, map out their priorities and talk about the Negotiating Position they are going to adopt. I had a strong sense that brussels is ready for the letter and they want theresa may to get on with it. It would be fascinating to have been a Fly On The Wall listening to all their observations once theresa may had left. I wonder what you are making of the town and the mood. 0nce Making Of The Town and the mood. Once you get all the others in a room together what is being said now that the end of march is rapidly approaching . This was a momentous summit ina approaching . This was a momentous summit in a muted way. It is the last time the 28 will all gather in a room as equal members of the club. Next time maybe the 27th eu leaders, we think in april, if theresa may triggers article 50 in march, there will be the meeting as early as the 6th of april and that will be the 27 getting together to work out how to proceed. The atmosphere will be different, as they will every time a british minister comes to brussels from then on in. It is about the divorce settlement and it is about planning a future trading relationship between the eu and britain. People i have been speaking to in the commission, which will lead this negotiation, they are clear it is the terms of the divorce that have to be figured out first, the money, the brexit bill, the financial commitments, the rights of eu citizens and workers in the uk, all that has to be sorted out before big Picture Discussions about future trading relationships. That is the commissions view and disagreement on the basic structure of the talks could be wide this gets acrimonious and difficult very quickly. This feels like we are very much at the end of the phoney war with brexit and it will get serious very soon. Interesting. Some of the other stories making bbc news at 5.
