A bit of a long story so bear with me...
Basically DS 11 has high functioning asd, he goes to a mainstream school but the school is supposed to be the special needs facilitated I. The area. So anyway since the first week in year 7 back in September one other boy who was in all of my sons classes has took a disliking to my son. Nothing had happened to merit this but I understand not everyone gets on fine, then more and more things have been happening, he regularly taunts my son, shouts in his face, calls him names, talks about our family etc, my son hates this so has said stuff back to him, pretty tame compared to what he’s said. We let it go for a while but then things started getting serious, he kept getting other’s involved. He’s not only picking on my son but also picks on whoEvers in his way, shouts things at older kids calls kids cunts etc. The school suggested we move him sides of the year which we have said no to because my sons friends are all in his class, why should the boy being bullied be the one to have to change. They wouldn’t move him because apparently there are kids on the other half he doesn’t get on with. He’s said some super disturbing things, like at Halloween he said to my son ‘ I bet you piss on the sweets’ and just last week told my son ‘ I bet you suck your sister’ no I’m all for a bit of banter but coming from an 11 year old is rather disturbing. He’s been excluded around 7 times that we know about, most for stuff he’s done to other kids. We’ve basically told my boy to ignore him and on Monday that’s what he did and what did it do, the boy assaulted my son. He wrote his own name all over my sons locker, and when he started saying to my son stuff and my boy turned around and said I don’t care and walked off the boy saw red and went mental. It’s all on camera and the head was supposed to be making sure he wasn’t coming back after another 3 day exclusion yet
We’ve just got a phone call to say he’s coming back and they can’t guarantee my sons safety. So now my son has to be off school tomorrow because they can’t safe guard properly. He’s had 8 exclusions that we know of so probably more and he’s still in the school. The police are involved as it was physical assault. I’m so angry. Moving schools is not an option for my boy and he is fine when the little shit isn’t thier. I’m also concerned they are setting a precedent for kids to act naughty and know they will get away with it. We’ve spoke with county hall and they’ve advised us to keep him off school and they are handling the complaint as the school are unable. Sorry had to get it off my chest. Am I wrong in thinking he should have been kicked out by now?
