My son has been getting ‘bullied’ by a lad at school, harassing him, intimidating him, threatening him, all over a period of time. School can only do so much.
Walking home today My sons friend turned off to go a different way and this lad/bully then started on Ds. (When Ds was alone)
Pushing him to the floor and hitting him etc. Ds trying to stick up for himself and loosing his temper manage to get on top of this lad shouting and swearing telling him to leave him alone.
At this point a lady from a bungalow came out shouting at the boys and it looked like Ds was the bully as he was one top. This wasn’t the case Ds just happened to be stronger than this lad and got on top of him to defend and protect himself.

I’ve spoken to the parents
I’ve spoken to the child
I got abuse from the child
And pretty much the same from the parents who are trying to shift the blame onto My son.

I’ve spoken to the school, who told me
To report it to the police

Which was my intentions anyways!!!
I’m not having my son getting bullied day in day out.

And I’ll keep reporting it, just because your a 11/12 year old harassing intimidating threatening and attacking another 11 year old
Is not acceptable if you were an adult you’d get arrested!!!!

This all happened yesterday
Today my son went to school with his friend as usual
Who has now fallen out with him (convinced it is because bully's mam is friends with Ds friends mam)
Police and school have taken their time over dealing with it all so bully thinks he has got away with it and boasting around the school making my son look and feel stupid

He is hiding in toilets at break times etc

Today he wrote on a piece of paper that a teacher got hold of and then rang me
My Ds son is saying he is going to kill himself and begging me not to send him to school.

Obviously it's the law and that, I spoke to the teacher at half four today and she still hadn't addressed this attack with the bully or his parents 24 hours had pasted by
Wtf this should be a priority!!!!

I'm keeping my son off school tomorrow and taking him to the doctors but other than that I don't know what to do
Any advice would be grateful
He is in year 7

Can you door knock the area of the walk home to see if anyone caught it on cctv. Or post on local Facebook page?

Pull him out and find a new school. It's shit but that's the way it is. From your use of Mam I'm guessing your in the North? I'm from Newcastle originally and I had the same problem as your son. I left secondary school nine years ago and I still resent my mother for not pulling me out of that hell hole because she wasn't confident she could educate me. There are homeschooling groups and I'm sure that you'll be able to find another school. It may be harder for him to get to but it'll do wonders for his mental health.
