I recently reported 2 incidents of sexual harassment against my dd to her primary school. One happened at the end of last term and more recent one happened last week.
My dd hadnt felt able to talk about previous incident at the time - too embarassed but when the same child did it again to her, she told me about it.
She is in p7.
The school were quite blase about it and said it was typical boy behaviour in that class and that the girls were too senstive. I was annoyed at that and insisted that it be recorded as sexuual harassmen not "boyish high jinks" (their words)
I have now found out that another mother reported a similar incident by the same child the week before.
The school have said that they will speak to the boy but really it was my dauhters word against his so nothing they could do. There were witnesses to both of my daughters incidents, as well as witnesses to the other child who reported but the school dont plan on speaking to those cchildren
They suggested that they would get my dd and this boy together to see how they could improve their relationship. I said no to that.
The boy has been moved so he is no longer sitting beside my dd but is now beside a girl who has been crying. Today, she told the teacher in front of the class that she feels too uncomfortable by what he is doing to her. This girl was told that she had to stay there as the teacher was running out of places to put him as the girls were all too thin-skinned.
I am shocked at the teacher / schools response. I have asked for an update as to what the school has done so far / next stages but was told no meetings were available for up to 2 weeks.
