These past few weeks have been a complete nightmare. So much has happened I don't know where to start, will give the main points as this would be 10 pages long if I listed everything this bully has said and done. Right, My 10 year old is dealing with a bully, and a nasty one at that. She kept it to herself until it all came out when she came home from school one day and self harmed, then it all came out. She cried her little heart out and told me she didn't want to be alive anymore. I have been to the school, spoken to the other child's father, I've spoken with the parents of other kids in the class and they have spoken to thier kids who have all backed up my child's story (not that I didn't believe her anyway, I just wanted to be able to prove without a doubt that my child was telling the truth when I went to the school). I have logged it with the police and asked the school to keep them separate at all times, for all members of staff to be made aware of the situation and for my child and this girl to be monitored at all times, I also asked the school for a Space referral for my daughter. They did some 'investigating' apparently and the head teacher spoke to the bully yesterday morning... by yesterday afternoon the child was back doing it again. Telling my daughter that it's her fault she doesn't have a dad (it was an abusive marriage and when I left him he stopped bothering with the kids as I have a restraining order and he can no longer use the kids to get to me). She told her that her dad didn't love her because she was ugly and stupid and that her dad is just as stupid as she is. She said other things too but the dad stuff is a serious sore spot for my daughter. She is dealing with huge self confidence issues anyway because her dad doesn't want to know so you can imagine how much that hurt her. I've already had her in counselling to deal with the issues surrounding her dad. My daughter was so upset she got up and walked out of school! Thank god a friend of mine saw her running through the streets crying and grabbed her. I was shopping in a different city at the time and got a call to say please get here ASAP. It was awful! My friend also called the school who had no idea my daughter was even missing. The school have refused to move this kid to a different class because of covid bubbles (I have since been advised by the police that the school can move the kid to a different class and that doing so would not break any laws). My child has always absolutely adored school and now she's begging me not to send her. I have logged the incidents with 101, I have contacted my local councillor and I plan on going to the board of governors on Monday. What else can I do that hasn't already been done?
