internally, speaking with him. and to talk about the present situation, opening the door at home, you have to know what will be there whenever you do. scoring the winner in the second half and taking on celtic and another quarterfinal tomorrow and on sunday, it is rangers against rovers. there is sean walsh with that second—half goal in the snow. world number onejon rahm has pulled out of the players championship with a stomach virus — ahead of today's second round, which has been abandoned due to bad weather. he had been playing with world number two scottie scheffler — who is three shots off the lead. with rory mcilroy set to miss the cut and rahm now out of the running, a fifth place finish or better would see scheffler reclaim the number one spot in the world rankings. american chad ramey had been leading the field by two shots — but found the water twice on the infamous 17th and picked up

a quadruple bogey to slip down the leaderboard. south african christiaan bezuidenhout and canada's adam svenssen lead by two on four under. american olympic skier mikaela shiffrin has made history — equalling the record number of world cup wins. she picked up gold in the women's giant slalom in sweden. the 86th win of her career — and it sees her tie with ingemar stenmark who won his titles in the 1970s and 80s. shiffrin became the women's world record holder when she overtook lindsay vonn�*s total of 82 in february. she could claim the outright overall record when she goes in the slalom — her best event — on saturday now what about this for the perfect storyline — england rugby league captain sam tomkins will retire from rugby league at the end of the 2023 seasonthe 33 year old appeared

in two world cups for england, captaining his country to the semi—finals in the most recent tournament last autumn. now playing full back for catalans dragons, he said a persistent issue with his left knee had contributed to his decision — but he'll stay with the club in an off—field role. meanwhile on the field of play, huddersfield giants have got their second win of the new season. they thrashed 36—6 — running in six tries — chris mcqueen with two of them. elsewhere there were wins for warrington, leeds and st helens. britain's cameron norrie cruised to a second round victory at indian wells. the british number one defeated taiwan's wu tung—lin in straights sets 6—2 6—4. norrie�*s next match could be against italian star matteo berrettini, who plays taro daniel in his second round tie.

another weekend of six nations action beckons, kicking off tomorrow afternoon with what could prove to be a battle for the wooden spoon. wales are in italy having lost their first three matches, most recently with defeat to england in cardiff. the italians are also yet to win a game, but boast a solitary losing bonus point. the players are working hard to try to give a clear message about improvements that were trying to make and against england and a improvements that we're trying to make and against england and a couple of times in a couple set piece players and so, we've done some good reviews this week on natalie and whether strengths are in some good reviews this week on italy and where their strengths are in potential opportunities for us from a defensive point of view at things from the attacking perspective as well. the big game of the weekend is at murrayfield tomorrow where unbeaten ireland will continue on their grand slam run. second placed scotland still have title aspirations of their own, but ireland, who are ranked the world's number one side

are chasing a first clean sweep of victories since 2018. we are responsible to show the next generation of kids coming through to show them what they're striving for, what they want to be involved in how they can be proud of their team and i suppose, we threw the net out a bit wider to the parents and supporters of these kids, etc and the whole of the nation, it is something we want people to be proud of and that's what drives us on in the way we want to play the game. and that's all the sport for now.

it's unbearable. he is broken. he started to suffer now. his mental health is deteriorating. if you like and begging. he is made out to be a monster and all these things and that's not the case. he is just a little boy with additional needs the needs help and support. it is that simple. s was the support coming from, would help are you going to get. it's like hitting your head against a brick wall. i get. it's like hitting your head against a brick wall.— get. it's like hitting your head against a brick wall. i feel like i'm failing _ against a brick wall. i feel like i'm failing my _ against a brick wall. i feel like i'm failing my children - against a brick wall. i feel like | i'm failing my children because against a brick wall. i feel like i i'm failing my children because i don't _ i'm failing my children because i don't even — i'm failing my children because i don't even know— i'm failing my children because i don't even know what _ i'm failing my children because i don't even know what i'm - i'm failing my children because i| don't even know what i'm asking i'm failing my children because i- don't even know what i'm asking for

even down to wearing shoes. school is actually the only place that she wear shoes which is why shoes are a huge battle. we don't normally wear shoes for any other event, really. and will intentionally throw it away so we have to redress. they wanted her to go to specialist school and the been mentally exhausting. as quick as i can get something on, she takes it off. and it's just every minute.

by sending her to school in the state, she's going to go home in the state and there's no breastplate. the council is refusing to give her education and care plan. and without support, she is little chance of getting placed in a specialist school. the councils is each case is reviewed to determine whether her needs are currently being met. some children may be in the best place and for the in the best place and for some children, it's not. harper needs a play based curriculum and she needs to be able to play and she needs to have time off because she is not taking anything. she is too busy trying to hide how she feels and how she normally acts that she is actually not learning at the level that she should be able to learn at and it's difficult to watch. this family has had to spend thousands of pounds getting her presently assessed by an educational psychologist to get her a diagnosis of autism but they are worried, there are fewer than ten specialist places across the whole of sheffield. we're kind of in a battle. we get nothing from this. the bbc has learned that more than half of special education schools in england are full.

stevie's daughter hasn't attended her mainstream school for six months. she is autistic, has adhd and is struggling to cope. like an increasing number of parents across the country, stevie will face the local authority in a tribunal. i think mainstream is the easiest option, when they struggle, then we will tackle it. there's no need for them to be wasting this much money on taking parents to tribunals if they put as much money into building more schools than they are taking tribunals, though be less tribunals. stevie will represent herself and it is a daunting prospect with emmy�*s future at stake.

she's got a meeting with running equality and human rights uk and advocates for children who face discrimination. stevie has received paperwork from the council and get to grips stevie has received paperwork from the council and must get to grips with all of the information in the files and it is off to a bad start. first thing, the date of birth is wrong. it's not running properly. and there are more errors adding to be excited when she will fill in the tribunal. the bundle, it has things in it that should not be and it and that is deeply concerning and some of the pages do not correlate, they've been mixed up. of the bundle is next up, there's nothing worse than going into a tribunal. a few days to go beforehand. they're going back to work through and rearrange this. just to do this, that's taken me 14 hours it's not been easy. we have both kids at home

and my husband works and it'sjust trying to fit it in where i can and i don't own a computer i miss my mums computer. it is a lot. there will be sleepless nights for stevie as she prepares to take on sheffield city council. ijust want her to be happy and in somewhere that can support her, that's all i want. we have good practice but we also have horrendous experiences in practice that we have witnessed. there will also be sleepless nights as night falls and more cases. and two or three nights in a time, third nights ijust don't go to bed. it said because once you go to his documents, you see that they have been failed not just now but from their early childhood all the way through. one of them is 19 and the other one is 15 and this other one

hears a 13—year—old. one of them is 19 and the other one is 15 and this other one here is a 13—year—old. so up to that age they had battled than battle and still not gotten the resources they need. the sophistry support and advice and last year, she helped advocate for more than 400 children. the issue is that the families cannot afford the element to afford legal representation to a law firm are paid advocates because it's so much for them. and it costs a fortune to have so many parents are described are crumbling across the uk at the moment. as a result of the pressure. leanne got a few months ago and she was desperate for help. he bites himself terribly, he actually beats himself up. and to watch that, it's horrendous, you can't stop him and the more you try to stop him, the worse you make him.

harry has been diagnosed with autism, he also has violent meltdowns. with autism, he also has he walked into a mainstream nursery for 15 hours a week but the nursery was struggling to keep harry and the other children safe. he is now at home and leanne has had to give up work. it's hard because of the lack of communication, the promises are made and nothing follows through. there's a special educational needs school not farfrom home. which takes children from the age of two and i9. i think if he had been the special school from last year, where we would be now if he had flown support. maybe his communication would've come on over the years. his frustrations would be less. he's not getting an education, he's not getting any help with his communications or any of his needs.

leanne is waiting for educational health and care plan and a legal document documenting the support he should get. if a specialist school is named, he must be given a place. but there's a big question over when he will be able to start because of waiting lists. as a four year wait and he's going to be nine before he starts to get any kind of education. he's got to be able to live in this world and the society that he is not normal to, that he's got to fit into that starts from the very bottom of this education. this is lester's diary and appointments, who have and appointments, who i've got to speak to, chase up, chase up, every day. it is just constant, you never get a day off. some pictures he took in there. i think as a parent, you give your all.

anything i can give him he needs, i do. but i cannot give him everything he needs. so, it is down to me to fight to get them what he needs because no one else is going to do it for him. the most rather frustrating part to you? trying to be the best mum i can and being to the point where you get suicidal. specialist schools across the country are facing pressure on places and this is the top school in rotherham. ten years ago, they had 82 pupils and now, they have 134 and there is a waiting list. so, what is causing pressure on places? increasing diagnosis of special educational needs in children with educational health and care plans. some mainstream schools are struggling to cope. funding is an issue, local authorities budgets are tight.

and new specialist schools are not being built quick enough to cope with the rising demand for places. doing some fantastic walking. how much time do you spend looking for space? mentally and physically, i got on the school time and time again to try to find available space this is a case in point when am about to show you is a former resource cupboard and now, we have members of the visual impairment therapy team conducting therapy or their children in this space. therapy with our children in this space. in a resource cupboard. good afternoon. lam ashamed. as the headteacher of the school, i genuinely do feel it is shameful that this is what we are providing for our children and also, i know it could be so much better for them. they deserve so much better. but through the lack

of investment, lack of foresight from external people, this is what we have to do and it is wrong. this is a school that prides itself on giving pupils the best chance to succeed. this isjano, a member of staff, pupil but works with us former pupil but works with us to the initiative and you do three hours a week for us. being able to break out into a space is so important for our kids and we just do not have that capacity. we do not have the designated break out space. you have a number of children up in the yard enjoying time outside and sending people in crisis need access to a break—out space and we do not have the spaces. having the space and a calm and quiet area for staff to connect with pupils makes all the difference but there are few places for people to go when they need to take a moment.

back inside, mckenzie is having a therapy session. mckenzie, can you go to the next one, please? it up some relaxing focus. the school in stauffer so much more pitch is limited and what it's able to achieve despite best efforts of the staff. it frustrates me so much in this room because ijust know that we need to get more students in like mckenzie, we need to be in three orfour or five times a week, not this one session every now and again they need to be able to become assisted and it's frustrating because i cannot be consistent a lot of the time. if so many children that needed. is there and the recognition with schools like you are going through? no, we shut up and get through it. that we put up with it we do

the best that we can for the good of the kids. but there comes a point where it's a breaking point and we are at other capacity. something has to be done. some pupils and had to leave the school because they cannot cope with the overcrowding. sarah was opening the state would not come. she is in school to collectors sun's belongings because he is no longer she is in school to collectors her son's belongings because he is no longer able to learn and the noisy cabins and is now at home. learning and he should be with his friends. - and he started to have panic attacks and hyperventilating. _ he wants to be here but is - the space, it is not allowing it. it is hard to see him and not engaging in anything other. than the same monotonous daily routine because of his— rigid need for control.

for emma, who iss looking around with daughter georgie, it is a different story. she is currently waiting for a different place of the school after visiting delays in getting her education health and care plan. by the time she'll be coming here in september, two years of education because of the process being so long that is double the proposed weeks and it took us ten months to get her this and to see her today with the other children and being somewhere where i know she really wants to be. it chokes you up. for this head and other�*s across the country, a lack of funding in the shortage of space and the high numbers of pupils is becoming increasingly urgent. the end ofjuly will come around incredibly quickly. if we do not have any concrete plans for where we are going to house all of those children, come next academic year, we're going to be in dire straits.

back in sheffield, the day of the tribunal has arrived. it is a tense start. i feel sick. i'm nervous and ijust want to get it over. i just want to know what they put us through they want them to put my daughter in the right school for it, did just want them to throw her anywhere that they feel she fits in because they don't even know her. they don't know my child. they don't know anything about. they're reading off a piece of paper. and by all accounts, i don't even think it's the right piece of paper. stevie has never done anything like this before. emmy�*s place at a special educational needs school depends on today going well. i got it then. but it's not on that. i can't find it. that's the first one to register it. apparently i've got to download an app. so eventually the tribunal�*s under way. it takes place online and behind closed doors. but there's a major setback for stevie. it appears that there was a place

available at a special school, but this comes as news to stevie, who says she was never made aware of it. the place has now gone to another child. if i'd known about the place, we wouldn't be here today. and she wouldn't be at home with no education. i've cried again. i don't cry. but i have done. ijust i feel angry, i've walked out of there feeling really, really angryjust because i found out things that should not happen to anybody. sheffield city council says there was nothing they could have shared with the family prior to the tribunal. i don't know how this is going to go. i really, really don't. i can keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best, but i don't know which way it's going to go. of course, we had often covered a normal conversation with a person since it started. it's always been about what i've got going on with this, and i don't think i know how to have a normal conversation any more. but when you do now, you have to have some lessons. what can i say to get back in? now, for stevie, it's a case of waiting and hoping. yes? what are you putting on there now?

which one are you putting on? suzy knows all too well what families can go through when they have a child with special educational needs. her son, jayden, is autistic. he's now 18. when we were first diagnosed, they went through all the things that he wouldn't be able to do. so said he won't be able to say, i love you. he says that to me every single night before we go to bed. we say our prayers, and then he says, i love you. that gave me a list of about ten things that he wouldn't be able to do. and he's done every single one of them and so much more. leigh set up sparkle sheffield, a charity which gives many children with special educational needs the chance to socialise, especially if they're not at school. shall i bring it for you? yes. i'll go and bring it for you in a bit. 0k? yes. with kisses, then. what you wish. see you later. with the help of jayden daughter, angel and volunteers,

leash with the help of jayden daughter, angel and volunteers, leigh has organised some outdoor adventure. but you're also going to be thinking about where to build your— shelter because you have to survive the night. - i love being with the kids. i love this. this is what it's all about, to be honest. but you know what? it's it's watching them use their skills. there's a lot of scouts and guides, groups and different things going on. but our children find it really difficult to get involved in all those groups. so we're going to have our own version of it with our own badges that they can they can do. the charity has grown with more families wanting to join in with events like this, but leash is worried about funding. it's very worrying for our volunteers and for us it's very worrying for our volunteers and for us and for our children. this could end. and or if all this ends, then what happens? charlotte and harper have come along to join in the fun. it's a chance to meet with other parents who understand the pressures. if the kids have a moent or there's anything going on.

we're all in similar boats, so you don't get weird looks and you don't get people kind of frowning and and making judgment. and that's, it's a community that we need. charlotte's next step is a tribunal in november, where she'll try and convince the council that harper needs an education and health care plan. and for stevie, it's a day to celebrate after the turmoil of going through a tribunal, she's got the decision she wanted. and her daughter emmie now has a place at a special school in sheffield. the council has apologised for the stress and inconvenience and says it will focus on making improvements. the school contacted me and said like, can we come and meet you? i cried like a baby and then rang my mum and cried like a baby again. and it wasjust like, we've done it. it means she's actually going to get an education and notjust palmed around for the next three years. don't get me wrong, the school that she's been in, i've done the very best for her and they have been amazing and i can't fault them at all. but she definitely does need more now. i'm excited for her because when we

took her to walk round, she was so happy and yeah, she absolutely loved it. in a statement, the government says it's providing £2.6 billion in funding between now and 2025 to help deliver new places and support for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities. this is in addition to increasing high needs funding to over £10 billion. there are calls for major change. for too many families, the fight for their child's education is long and daunting. but this is what keeps them fighting. it's moments like this. celebrating success. congratulations, we are proud of mckenzie. the joy of learning and thriving. and the recognition ofjust how

special their children are. well done, freddie. this is for you. hello. lots of focus on snow in recent days. tonight, it is about ice, widespread icy conditions

with temperatures is mightiest —ii celsius we have seen the snow and elsewhere in town and city centres we can see them right —3 and elsewhere in town and city centres we can see them aroudn—3 minus four celsius in a cold frosty icy start of the weekend and a good deal of sunshine for many platypus england, wales or northern ireland until snow, snow showers in southern scotland and a great day with the best of sunshine for the easter with later winds the resulting friday and temperatures still run three to seven celsius for many and across the far southwest of england. to northern england and into scotland to clear skies behind it and for many sunday will start much milder way from the north of scotland were it will still be cold, frosty and potentially icy. we can head was sunday and it looks to be increasingly wet day with some strong winds and turning quarter again by tuesday.
