There is a history of my dd , ( year 3), and other children in her class, since reception being bullied, ( bitten,punched, hit), by one particular child fairly regularly, once or twice a week, for the initial term at school. The school always says that that this child has difficulties dealing with change and they are monitoring the situation. Usually, the violence stops by Xmas time.
Forward to this year, yes, the thumping, hitting starts again, this year however, sticks and pencils are being used as weapons, teachers and TAs hurt as well. Of course, as parent I am making appointments with the head to try and protect my child and inform them of the incidents. The school have now removed the child from the classroom for 1:1 supervision in the corridor, however only for 10 days.
I worried what will happen after this time is up. The school keep telling me the situation is being monitored. I keep a diary of my Childs injuries and keep the school informed. Where do I go for help? What is the procedure if I am not confident that the school if keeping my daughter safe? I would really value any experiences as I feel I am hitting a brick wall and at wits end.
