The inquest into the death of six-year-old Liam Hogan is due to take place in Bristol on Wednesday.

Liam died in Crete in August 2006 when he fell from a hotel balcony with his father, John, and sister Mia, who was then aged two.

Mia and John survived the plunge and John later stood trial for murder but was cleared of any crime earlier this year.

The inquest throws up the possibility of an unlawful killing verdict and will hear from eyewitnesses who were not called at the Greek trial.

We’ll post coverage and links to other media sources on this website during Wednesday.

Update: 6.45pm - There’s a short piece from the Evening Post here previewing the inquest

The new draft plans for a sixth form and dance hall at Bradley Stoke Community School have been released.

We’ve got the high-resolution versions for you to browse through here at the Bradley Stoke Examiner.

You can check out both the mock-up images and the plans themselves here - then tell us what you think of them.

Head teacher Dave Baker says that South Gloucestershire Council needs to gain planning approval for the sixth form before the Learning Skills Council will approve or even fund the project.

The plans - once a final version is completed - will now need planning approval and then funding will need to be secured.

New leaflets outlining the plans for Bradley Stoke’s town centre are available in Tesco detailing what we can expect in the coming months.

The leaflet, from store manager James Fawbert, promises adult and kids fashion, electrical goods, a new pharmacy, opticians and photo lab.

The leaflet also says the wider town centre develop will feature a shopping mall, cafe and restaurants.

It’s mostly information we already know but it does feature a handy map should you want to know where everything will be.

A small update to our exclusive story a week ago about numbers of pupils offered and refused places at Bradley Stoke Community School.

We’ve got the numbers in full for those who are interested: There were 465 applications in total for the 180 places. 264 of those were first choice applications, 116 were second preference and 85 were third preference.

In terms of actual offers, 163 pupils were offered places from their first preference, four from their second preference and none from their third.

The final 13 offered places were those with special educational needs.

The finishing touches are being completed at the new petrol station in the Bradley Stoke town centre development.

Petrol pumps have been installed as well as tarmac put down around the new building next to the Three Brooks pub.

Once the work in finished the old station will be demolished to make way for more building work in the new centre.
