Thank you for getting in touch.
We would suggest that you report the incidents to your child's school and arrange a meeting with school staff to discuss your concerns. At the meeting you can talk about the impact that the incidents are having on your child and try to work with the school to find solutions.
If you are unhappy about how the school is dealing with your concerns, you can make a complaint to the school using its official complaints procedure – you should find information on how to do so on the school website.

I took my son from his primary school this morning as a Safeguarding issue, he has been bullied every yr since being in school. He is SEN, but today I draw the line as it's affecting his mental health and routine at home, he is upset all the time and the school are always to busy to deal with this, how do I keep him safe but need him in education

My child is being bullied by a child who has SEN needs. How do I address this with school? My child has been hit, kicked, spat at, name called, chased and intimidated. Many other class members have experienced this behaviour also.

What if someone is bullying you who would yo tell
Thank you for getting in touch. If you have any worries or concerns try not to deal with problems on your own, there is always someone who can help.
We suggest working out who is on your helping hand – think about 5 trusted people that you would tell if you were being bullied. That could be an adult at school such as a teacher or lunchtime supervisor, a parent or carer, a friend or sibling, or perhaps another family member like a grandparent, Aunt, or Uncle.
It is important that bullying is reported to the school so that it can be investigated and stopped.
