    Ms Chambers said she was "shocked" at the reaction to the system.

    Greasley Baeuvale

    "In my playground when I’ve been out and about, everyone was really positive about it. It’s been sensationalised with 'headteacher grades parents'," she said 

    "I guess we do in a sense, but it’s grading the partnership."

    She went on to say the school has had "fantastic success stories of families that have had these interventions" - "It really does make a big difference," she added.

    You might have seen a story in the Nottingham Post, external and the Daily Mail, external today about Greasley Beuvale School, near Eastwood that's "ranking" parents.

    Well today the headteacher Donna Chambers has defended the system which she says is about engaging parents.

    She insisted the "parental partnership descriptors" she gives to parents are not grades.

    “For those who were not engaging with a child’s learning or with the school, we had a meeting with them to see what we can do," she explained.

    "For some, they might work full-time and they may need a parents' evening at 07:30, some can’t access a child’s learning because of their own literacy and numeracy skills."

    The Post Office has told me they met today with Bargain Booze who decided not to go ahead with the plan to have a counter in their store.

    For the time being the Post Office branch will stay where it is on Church Street but they are actively looking for a new location in Stapleford.

  12. Shar-peis bred to have wrinkly facespublished at 15:46 GMT 5 December 2016

    Hector was taken to a council pound where unclaimed animals are sometimes destroyed after a week.

    Luckily he was taken in by Halfway HomeDog Rescue, which has got his tail wagging again.

    The centre's founder, Val Hosegood, said: "Shar-Pei are bred to have these wrinkly faces but in Hector's case the folds are rubbing on his eyes and if not fixed, he will go blind."

    Hector's treatment could be as high as £3,000 so Val has turned to fundraising to cover the costs.

    Meet Hector. He's a Shar-pei and he needs a facelift to save his sight. Seriously.

    He came in to BBC Nottingham earlier and he was ace. But his story is a sad one.

    Hector

    He was found as a stray in Bradford and was in poor shape - severely underweight and with missing fur. He was in danger of being put down.

    But a Newark rescue centre took him in and is raising £1,500 so he can be restored to health and re-homed.
