Secondary school kids?

My son was just punched repeatedly by another kid in his class(secondary school). The other child has emotional issues because his parents have seperated (we are seperated). Our son and the school delt with the situation really well and we are really proud of how he and they delt with it. Although this is not the first time a child in anger management has hit our child. Should he have to deal with it over and over again? He works hard and is very respected by his friends and peers.....but pretty annoyed he has had to be the cool one again and rise above the situation yet again! If he was an adult this would be assault. Fab son and school, just sick of the toleration expected.

No he shouldn't!!!
I have an issue with some girls in dd's year who constantly disrupt lessons and consequently my dds education.
What do you do with these children? Are they going to behave like that for the next 5 years?

Welcome to the modern world!

That is what it is like in schools - not so much on actual physical harm, but constant disruption of lessons is a reality.

No it is not AMerryScot, I do not not tolerate disruption in my lessons. It is like that in some schools not all.

Your son should not have to put up with this and it may be that you need to speak to his head of house or head of year to find out what their long term approach is going to be.
