DS2 is going to an independent specialist school (dyslexia based) (LEA court case) in September. He is really excited to be taught with other dys/dys kids and only 6 in a class - I have told him it is a massive deal that we/he won this case against the LEA and to look forward to it.
A kid in his Year 6 mainstream class called him a retard today about going to his new secondary school, therefore my kid bopped him on the nose and said "don't call me a retard or I will hit you again".
He got called into Headteacher's office HT said - "why did you hit him", DS said "cos he called me a retard".
HT said "OK".
I have only heard about this through DS. Frankly, I think "fair enough". I have said, don't hit first, but hit back.
What do you think?

My kid was called a "retard" today - I thought he was right to punch the other kid
