Just updating. So following on from the meeting on the we had last week, I responded to the school on Monday morning first thing looking for a copy of the minutes of the meeting and the recording as the meeting was recorded and we had given permission for it. Secondly I informed the school formally that DS would not be returning to the school as the school had left us no option. I got no response from the school Monday or Tuesday and eventually I had to call on them. I spoke to the school principal who was so arrogant, not once asked about DS's welfare and basically denied that the school failed in their duty of care towards the DS. Plus what actually set me over the edge was the fact we were told that they had destroyed the recording of the meeting which had occurred and we still have not received a copy of the minutes. Following on from that conversation I had to them email the school again requesting a number of items and I also had to get into more detail about the schools deliberate failure towards DS. I got a response the following day from the school, including the minutes of the meeting which were surprise surprise factually incorrect. They didn't even mention the fact that they had been recorded. Then the school outlined that the last two incidents That happened with DS there had been no provocation. This is in fact a blatant lie as we had meetings with the school surrounding both those issues and the year head Had confirmed at the time that in one instance DS had been hit in the face with an object, and in the second incident DS had been continually threatened for the whole day at school, told he was going to be beaten up, and they also took his school belongings and the school and the audacity to tell me that he was not provoked. The way the school discussed my DS and the way they have pursued things, makes him out to be the problem. When in fact he has been bullied from the very day he started in that school, the school even acknowledged that he was a problem but they could not solve and now the only thing to do was turn the tables on DS .
The only positive is that we have found DS a place in the new school which he will start directly after Easter.
I have to say I am very bitter and angry towards the school, the way they treated both ourselves and DS has been completely horrendous. They showed no compassion, no willingness to resolve the issues and just wanted to get rid of the problem the easiest way they could and that was get rid of the victim out of the school.
