My DS is in Y2. Since reception, he has been intimidated and hit by one of his classmates. The other child we believe is SN and has difficulties integrating with the other boys.
DS was told he had to play with this child, and he did not even questioned it. In reception, mum invited herself to two playdates to my house. Mum was, in my opinion very umpleasant to my DS. For instance, when her DS did not want to leave home, she had a go at my DS because her DS did not want to go home.
Both boys went to same afterschool care in Y1. DH witnessed the other child hitting my DS and DH told the staff. That night the mum called us to have a go at my DH for complaining. During Y1 DS was hit and came home with marks in a few occasions.
School eventually intervened and things seemed to improve. Then, the other child's mother sends me a handwritten and hand delivered letter (4 pages) calling me a nasty character and demanding my DS to be friends with hers.
I have totally ignored her since then, but this year I have noticed that she goes to the school gates and if I she doesn't see me, she tries to engage in conversation with my DS.
Then it was her DS's birthday and my DS was invited, my DS said he did not want to go to the party because the other boy would hit him, so I turned down the invitation and gave not reasons. Not happy with my answer, she runs to me at the school gates and demands an explanation about my DS not going to the party. Then, she calls me names in front of my DS.
My DH then witnessed an incident were the mum was telling her child to go to my DS's face and shout at him until he is acknoledged, when DH tries to stop it, he gets called names and this woman complains to school my DH has been abusive.
Appart from this issue, no problems with the school. DS is a bright little boy who every morning wonders if it is going to be the day that he is going to be left alone.
We have been offered a place in a different local school. Would you move? Any advice? Please.
