A terrified Scots parent has spoken out about the shocking injuries her young daughter has suffered at the hands of school bullies.
The woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, says she has broken down in tears on several occasions after dropping off her daughter at school in the morning, and has raised concerns over how the incidents have been investigated and dealt with by teachers and Midlothian Council.
The mother of the six-year-old girl, who was five when the majority of the incidents occurred, has also shared photos of bruises and cuts that her daughter has returned home with, according to EdinburghLive.
