A 10-year-old girl was abused at school because of the colour of her skin and for issues related to her autism, according to her parents.
The girl, who the ECHO has chosen not to name, has reportedly been victim to abuse from fellow pupils at St Silas C of E Primary School in Toxteth for around four years. Her parents claimed the 10-year-old has been racially abused and mocked for issues related to her autism, including one disturbing incident earlier this week where she was asked "why her skin was so brown".
The girl, who is mixed race, reportedly came home and "broke down" after the most recent incident. Her parents, Steven and Jessica, said she doesn't want to return to the school because of the abuse and have taken steps to remove her from the school.
