Scots girl left with brain injury after vicious school attack 'treated like criminal' and taken to court

The mum of a Scots girl who was left with a brain injury after a vicious attack at school has hit out after claiming her own family were ‘treated like criminals’.

The woman told how her 12-year-old daughter was pulled to the ground by her hair with her head then repeatedly smacked off the floor in a busy corridor at a West Lothian school, which cannot be identified for legal reasons, in February 2020.

She was horrified to find staff had failed to call for an ambulance and whisked the youngster to St John’s Hospital in Livingston for emergency treatment to her head and back injuries.
