Hi,
So on Friday a family member picked my child up and was informed he had been attacked by another child - pinned to the floor and hit. He’s told me he was playing and this child has jumped on him and he had to shout for help. I’ve felt sick about it all weekend but thought I’d speak to the teacher today to see what’s gone on. She said today that she was with another child and could hear my little boy screaming, she’s gone over and he was pinned to the floor and the other child was clawing at his neck. He had scratch marks which faded, he was upset but settled down.
I’ve asked is it a case my son and this child don’t get on, but she said he’s not the only child and there have been other incidents, she’s suggested I complain to the head if I’m not happy.
my thinking is, what good will complaining do? As if this child has additional needs it’s obvious no 1-1 funding is in place yet. I also don’t want to then risk this child’s place at nursery by saying I’m concerned about his behaviour, but 2 others have suggested I do complain to the head. I just don’t know by complaining what I should be suggesting as a solution. However, I do think pinning my son down and scratching his neck is a lot more than just boisterous play, it seems very vicious.
