Ds attacked on the street. Police called.

Take pictures of any injuries. Phone and report it, give the names of the perpetrators/witnesses if you can. I would pursue this via the police direct and not the school. Get your son to pen a quick account of what happened before he forgets bits. Depending on if they have any previous they might be eligible for a caution or community resolution, or if this isn't their first rodeo, a youth court order. Hope he is ok-kids can be such shits.

I’d call the police again and report it again. They can’t just do nothing! I’d also get him checked out by a Dr so that any potential injuries are recorded. I’d be looking at taking legal action against the perpetrators. If he can identity them, all the better. I’d be telling the school that there is a criminal case going on and until it is resolved, DS needs to be kept away from his attackers for safeguarding reasons.
Well done to the adult who intervened too. Do you have their details?

do you mean that he tried to prevent them entering somewhere outside school grounds ?
that seems rather foolhardy, esp if there are a group of them.
ok to state a rule, but tell him not to put himself in danger by antagonising an unruly group in an area where he has no back up.
i may have misunderstood the situation. sorry this happened. hope he's ok. is it worth being a prefect if makes him a target. i would keep my head down and avoid trouble.

I agree contact the police yourself now.

Ask them why they didn't attend to a situation where a minor was actively being assaulted.

Ask them what they are doing next. How are they going to take action to make sure it doesn't happen again and isn't worse next time.

Hope your ds is ok

You should ring the police yourself now to make sure it was recorded and say you want action taken. Get the crime reference number.

Take a written statement from your DS yourself for future reference.

Request a meeting with the Head tomorrow to ask what will be done in school.

This is a violent crime in public, school should take it very seriously.

That’s awful op. Nasty arseholes. I hope your son is ok.

The police will more than likely have words with these kids and that will be the end of that
the same thing happened to my dd years ago and that’s all that happened even though she was badly hurt and her new school bag/most of her new uniform was torn to bits

If it's anything like my kids school, nothing

Didn't happen in school grounds so they don't want to know.

I hope you son is ok, poor kid

Terrible. Hope your DS is ok.

No idea what happens next, but sending support.
