A mum claims her 11-year-old son has been beaten 'black and blue' by school bullies "because he's English". Kelly Wood says her son Liam has been targeted by classmates for more than four years, with children hitting, punching and calling him names due to his nationality and because they consider him overweight.
She says the youngster, who is a Year 6 pupil at Waunarlwydd Primary School, used to to be "happiest boy ever" before the bullying started. Now, the schoolboy is regularly met with verbal insults, including being called "fat," English p***k" and "English idiot," and subjected to attacks where he is hit and punched all over his body, his parent alleges.
Speaking to Wales Online, Kelly said: "My son has been severely bullied for four years. He's been beaten black and blue, he's been pinned down by two boys and kicked in the private area, it's terrible.
