DD aged 8 has been actively targeted by a child who is on the autistic spectrum. There have been a wide range of events, including the worst of a punch to the face. I had been emailing the teacher, the KS leader and the deputy head as these incidents carried on, but the punch to the face lead me to escalate this to a formal complaint with the headteacher. The child was internally excluded for 2.5 days after this incident and full 1:1 provision was put in place to include break times and lunch times. The day the findings of the school's investigation were due, I received a telephone call from the head informing me that two further incidences had occurred that day involving the SEN child and mine, resulting in a 2.5 day external exclusion. I have had a further meeting with the head about what they are going to do for my daughter, as the focus has been very much on the other child, in terms of calming her anxiety and feelings of intimidation as a result of these events. What I'd really like to know is, if this continues and further incidents happen, what rights do I have on behalf of my daughter, to insist that this child is removed from the class altogether and is educated completely separately, to include different break and lunchtimes. This is not an isolated case. According to other parents, this child has been doing this for 3 years and since October 2015, decided it was my daughter's turn. I'm not sure quite what else to do. Many thanks.
