Family of boy who lost finger while running from school bullies 'forced to move'

A boy who lost his finger while running away from an alleged attack at school has moved away with his family after facing "constant" bullying, his mum claims.

Shantal Bailey says her 11-year-old son Raheem was subjected to racist and physical abuse while at Abertillery Learning Community in Blaenau Gwent after starting in September last year.

The parent alleges that he was assaulted by bullies on school grounds in May and seriously injured his finger on railings while trying to run away - resulting in the finger being amputated, Wales Online reports.
