Hi, a boy in my daughter’s year punched her friend in the throat and kicked another in her stomach, he recently struck again on another child but this time much worse, kid ended up
in hospital again unprovoked! Turns out he’s got anger issues and does MMA so lashes out randomly and whoever is there gets it! School are brushing his behaviour under the carpet but I’m worried and have raised this with the head only to be dismissed as have other parents.He was suspended for two day so we’re all waiting for him to strike again but he gets worse with each attack. I spoke to
some of the parents and turns out he’s been doing it inside/outside of school for years! His parents are total Aholes and don’t care and his mum even told another mother to talk to her and not the school but I don’t want it to be my child next. Am I making a big deal for nothing?

Thank you @Dramatic , school just don’t want to do anything. I want to force their hand but just don’t want my child targeted

Should have added she’s in junior school, year 6

Presumably over the age of 10 then? If anything like that happened to my child I'd be calling the police.

Schools should be able to permanently exclude for this type of behaviour. In fact my daughter's school did exclude a child (year 8)permanently because she attacked another child, dragging her to the floor and stamping on her head and the poor girl also ended up in hospital.

I would report this to the police for starters along with a complaint to the LEA.
