I have been lerking on MN for a long time picking up advice, i have never posted before but could really do with some advice about my DS who started secondry school this year.
We moved house just before the end of year 6 and as a result my DS is at a school where he did not know anyone previously.
Almost straight away a group of about 6 boys from his form has started bullying him, the useal name calling, threts and mild phisical violence.
some examples would be comments from the other boys such as 'you have a bed in your house to rape people in.' and 'you black shit.' as well as lots of 'arseholes' and 'fuck you's' this in addition to having his stuff 'accedntaly' knocked off the table and being repetedly hit round the head.
We had open evening yesterday where DS has loads of positive feedback from teachers about his academic proformance and confidence in class etc. He left fealing really good about himself. Fast forward to today where he came home in floods of tears after a really dificult day where these boys taunted him all morning. at lunchtime he had a hot drink on his tray, one of the boys began shaking the tray so his drink spilt, he was really cross and in response knocked over the other boys drink, things got heated and DS had the sense to leave the lunch hall and go to the bathroom and sit in a cubical to cool down. The boys followed him in and began throwing wet tissues over the door. this behaviour continued untill DS lost his temper and ended up fighting with one of the boys.
The schools response was to call all the boys into the key stage leader who discussed it with them. After this all the other boys were allowed back to class except for DS, in addition one of the boys was allowed to go and play in a school football match, and my DS was told this was ok because it was for the sake of the team.
I feel really upset at how the school have chosen to respond to what is gong on.
So tomorrow I will need to spek to the keay stage leader and was hoping someone may have some advice on how to approch the situation.
