Sample copy from BBC - Head teachers have called for urgent action over the legal drug mephedrone following the deaths of two teenagers. The National Association of Headteachers (NAHT) says it has the same dangers as any Class A drug and the government should consider a ban. Louis Wainwright, 18, and Nicholas Smith, 19, died in Scunthorpe on Monday after taking the drug. The government has asked the Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs to examine the dangers and report back. Sample copy from BBC - Concerns about the quality of food given to thousands of toddlers in England's nurseries have been raised in a government-commissioned report. The School Food Trust report suggests food served by childminders and nurseries is too high in fat, sugar and salt, and lacks essential nutrients. It also warns toddlers could be eating adult portions and additives usually banned from young children's foods. Nursery food will now be reviewed to see if it needs to be regulated. The School Food Trust report concludes that food may be poor because of a lack of up- to-date guidance on nursery food.
