children being slammed against doors, hit, kicked and left sitting in the room. we also learned about the school bus inc. response, six members of staff are proven by the school's own documents on the bounce up school's own documents on the bounce up abilities to have been abusing their pupils, but they weren't sacked, and we learned one referral to the dbs wasn't made. a whistle—blower who worked for the school describe these investigations by the school as a whitewash. it is really disturbing detail, so much of what you found out — what did the parents know? what you found out - what did the parents know?— what you found out - what did the parents know? we've spoken to nine ofthe parents know? we've spoken to nine of the 39 families _ parents know? we've spoken to nine of the 39 families affected, - parents know? we've spoken to nine of the 39 families affected, and - of the 39 families affected, and they say they were misled about the use of isolation at the school. they imagine to the schools to be sensory rooms with colourful lighting and comfortable seating. they also say they've been repeatedly denied the footage. now in response, the multi academy trust which runs the school
5:37 pm
in london told us that new leadership had taken over since the rooms were closed, it shared the footage immediately with police when it was discovered, and they've been learning from failings. it said the current management team wasn't legally obligated to make the dbs referrals about these six numbers of staff, this is because the staff weren't removed from their roles, but rather suspended. you put that to the dbs and they said the duty to refer the staff to dbs wasn't altered by decision to suspend. noel altered by decision to suspend. noel, thanks for taking us through all that. anthony leblanc and is injordan to present a list of measures he says will increase the flow of him entering aid into gaza —— antony blinken. he's been speaking and repeating calls for hamas to accept a true steel. have a listen. fiur a true steel. have a listen. our views on _ a true steel. have a listen. our views on roth _ a true steel. have a listen. our views on roth i _ a true steel. have a listen. our views on roth i think— a true steel. have a listen. oi"
5:38 pm
views on roth i think are very well—known. the president has been very clear about it, i've been very clear about it and repeated as recently as yesterday at —— our views on the five. where our focus is right now, along with the humanitarian effort, ourfocus is is right now, along with the humanitarian effort, our focus is on getting a cease—fire and hostages home. that's the most urgent thing, and it's also i think what's achievable, because the israelis have pretty strong proposal on the table, they've demonstrated that they are willing to compromise, and now it's on hamas. no more delays, now it's on hamas. no more delays, no more excuses, the time to act as now. so ourfocus is no more excuses, the time to act as now. so our focus is on this and we want to see, in the coming days, this agreement coming together, because again, that is the best way and most effective way to really deal with the suffering of the people, and also to create an environment in which we can
5:39 pm
hopefully move forward to something that's really sustainable and a lasting peace for the people who so desperately need it, and a lasting security for israelis, as well. antony blinken speaking in the little last while, we are keeping an eye on what's coming out of the white house too, they've been talking about the various hopes they have about increasing aid into gaza, and also talking about the prospects of a new cease—fire deal, the white house urging hamas to actually take the deal that is on offer. so more on that as it comes into us. the race to find scotland's next first minister and snp leader has begun, after humza yousaf announced his resignation yesterday. former finance secretary kate forbes and former deputy first minister john swinney are both considering whether to run. political correspondent kirsten campbell is in edinburgh for us. take us through the likelihood of

the field being any whiter than the two names ijust mentioned there. what is the feeling where you are? nominations have opened this morning and candidates need 100 signatures from 20 different branches by monday lunchtime if they are going to stand. but so far, there are no declared candidates. the names everybody is talking about ourjohn swinney, the former deputy first minister who was leader of the party 20 years ago and is now considering a come back — he had considered standing the last time around when humza yousaf was elected. but ruling that out, he said it was time for a new generation and a fresh perspective. but he is considering whether to stand this time, he says he's had lots of people contact him and ask him to do so, and that he's one person who listens to such representations. the other person
5:41 pm
who is considering standing is kate forbes, the former finance secretary. now she stood against humza yousaf in the last snp leadership election, and she ran very close, getting 48% of the vote, and her supporters argue that she would appeal beyond the snp to the wider population, although there are concerns about some of her socially conservative views on issues like 93)’ conservative views on issues like gay marriage. so, so far, unclear whether they'll be joined by anyone else, in fact it's not even clear that there will be a contest — it could be that we have a coronation, and if that's the case, scotland could have a new first minister as soon as next tuesday. we could have a new first minister as soon as next tuesday.— could have a new first minister as soon as next tuesday. we will watch that particular _ soon as next tuesday. we will watch that particular aspect _ soon as next tuesday. we will watch that particular aspect of _ soon as next tuesday. we will watch that particular aspect of it _ that particular aspect of it all, but whoever emerges as the new first minister, huge challenges lay ahead. yes, all the issues that have been
5:42 pm
facing humza yousaf will face whoever replaces him, and this'll a minority government because humza yousaf decided he'd no longer wanted to continue with the bute house agreement, that power—sharing agreement, that power—sharing agreement with the greens. so they are in the minority, they don't have are in the minority, they don't have a majority in they'll need to work issue by issue cross party to get legislation through, to get budgets through, and that'll be a difficult thing to do in the current climate, in the run—up to an election where perhaps the political feeling in the run—up to an election where perhaps the politicalfeeling is not so much for consensus and very much in favour of competition. we so much for consensus and very much in favour of competition.— in favour of competition. we will leave it there _ in favour of competition. we will leave it there but _ in favour of competition. we will leave it there but thanks - in favour of competition. we will leave it there but thanks for - in favour of competition. we will leave it there but thanks for that update, live from edinburgh, thank you. thursday's local elections are just two days away, and thousands of councillors mayoral candidates and police commissioners up and down the country are still busy on the campaign trail. this round of local elections is attracting a lot of interest

about king charles' first major public engagement since his cancer diagnosis in february. he's attended a specialist cancer treatment centre in london, speaking with patients, who're shared their experiences. it was also announced today that the king is the new patron of the charity cancer research uk. and we can talk to the chief executive of the charity, michelle mitchell. white made a big smile from you because presumably that's a big boost to you and your charity, to have the king as the new patron? absolutely delighted controls has chosen to be the patron of cancer research uk. it of course brings a spotlight to the important issues of cancer survival and cancer research. so absolutely delighted, yes. hour so absolutely delighted, yes. how sirnificant so absolutely delighted, yes. how significant do _ so absolutely delighted, yes. how significant do you _ so absolutely delighted, yes. how significant do you think it's been today and over the past months of

5:52 pm
your survival will be significantly improved. so making sure people are aware of themselves of the signs and symptoms of cancer, that they get an early diagnosis is critical in improving cancer outcomes in the united kingdom. sadly, although we have world—class research and innovation, our cancer outcomes are lagging behind many other countries — and that's why we've also been calling upon the government to introduce a cancer strategy that prevents more cancers, diagnoses them early, ensuring people get timely access to test and treatments to see an overall improvement in cancer survival, which is what we all want. . ,,., , cancer survival, which is what we allwant. . , ~ . all want. absolutely, michelle, thanks so much _ all want. absolutely, michelle, thanks so much for— all want. absolutely, michelle, thanks so much forjoining - all want. absolutely, michelle, thanks so much forjoining us | all want. absolutely, michelle, l thanks so much forjoining us on all want. absolutely, michelle, i thanks so much forjoining us on a really busy day for you, but thanks so much for your time.— eurovision has catapulted many acts

to global fame over the years, but one performer triumphed without even competing. michael flatley was the half—time entertainment when he stole the show in 1994, with riverdance, his fresh take on irish dancing. 30 years on, he's been talking to our culture correspondent charlotte gallagher. eurovision, 1994 in dublin. and this was the interval act — riverdance with michael flatley. my goodness, that brings up a lot of memories. it was a very unique evening. it was very, very special. i'll tell you a story, i don't think i've ever mentioned it before. right before i went on stage, they came to me beside the stage. a couple of them said, "please, we're getting calls from all the dance teachers. please don't wave your arms around. you're going to make us look ridiculous in front of the world and we'll be very embarrassed. so can we just ask you this time, whatever happens, keep your arms down." and i said, "no."
5:54 pm
irish dancing quickly became a global sensation and fans filled arenas. and that impact, going right across the world. how cool is that? so we nailed it. my dream, for 35 years, i was working in construction sites and digging foundations in chicago, in those freezing cold winters. but i was creating those steps and my dance style in my mind that whole time. and that's what got me through the hard labours. michael set up his own show, lord of the dance. but growing up and wanting to be an irish dancer in the late—19605 wasn't easy. i got bullied at school, terribly. so i know what young lads go through. and it's trying. it's mentally difficult. it's stressful to have to walk into school and hope somebody doesn't say something negative toward you. and it's fair to say that
5:55 pm
irish dancing has changed a lot over the decades. music: back in black by ac/dc so what about the new generation of irish dancers? we took michael to meet a group of students in castleknock, county dublin. hiya. one, two, three. four, five, six. point and up. point toes. good job! allunder nine. beautiful. my god! and did you ever think, 30 years later, you'd be talking still about that moment? when riverdance finished, on that last stamp of the feet, when it stopped, even i was blown away with the response. and it was one of those moments in time, you know? we were so blessed. charlotte gallagher,

bbc news, dublin. stay with us here on bbc news. hello there. the southerly breeze brought the warmer air further north across the uk today, mainly for eastern areas where we had the dry weather and the sunshine. further west, it was different story because as you can see from the satellite picture, we've had much more cloud and that's been bringing some rain as well. this cloud, though, continues to threaten the southeast with a few showers, and those could run their way northwards up these eastern coastal areas up towards the northeast of england. further west, though, the cloud will tend to thin about, the rain tending to die out in many places, becoming dry. misty, low cloud, though, could develop in eastern scotland, perhaps northeast england. temperatures on the mild side, and it may well be a little bit
5:57 pm
warmer than last night in the southeast. but we've got some cloud and some showers coming across northeast england into eastern scotland, further west, it's going to be a drier and brighter day with some sunshine. just the odd shower, a few showers breaking out in the midlands ahead of this rain that's developing here in southern parts of england. but for western areas, those temperatures will be higher than today, 18 in the northwest of england and western scotland. it's going to be cooler in eastern scotland and northeast england, especially where it stays grey and misty with some warmth. further south, though, and that rain coming in from france. we've got the risk of some thunderstorms for a short while on wednesday nights. more likely, southern england and south wales could be some large hail and some gusty winds. most of that rain then clearing away. we've got that weather front stuck across southern areas and to the north. the easterly wind is continuing to pick up. now that is going to bring some warmer air from the continent. trouble is, it's moving over the cold north sea where sea surface temperatures are only 8—9 degrees. so it's going to keep it cooler around north sea coast and there could be some mist and low cloud around it, as well. but otherwise, we'll see some sunshine coming through the cloud taking a little longer to break up
5:58 pm
here in the southwest after the overnight rain. and we could trigger a few sharp showers across those central areas, but many places will be dry on thursday. it's going to be warm through the midlands, northwest england and northern ireland, this time making 20 degrees in western scotland. still cool into friday for eastern scotland, maybe a few showers here and some more wet weather developing across england and wales, pushing northwards, bringing some thunderstorms into northern england. that will drop the temperatures here. we could get some sunshine in southern england. the highest temperatures, 20 degrees again will be in western scotland.
