Schools across the country have been dealing with 'rioting' students after a mass rebellion over changes to the use of toilets during lessons and break times. Police were called out to a number of schools yesterday after pupils 'went on the rampage' during their TikTok planned protest which teachers allege was sparked by a social media trend.
Riot police attended Richmond School in North Yorkshire after reports that teachers were allegedly pushed over and a tree was set on fire. The school children were behaving uncontrollably as they let off fire extinguishers, kicked down doors and smashed windows, the Mirror reports.
It's understood the uproar was sparked after rules were announced by schools to lock the toilets during lesson time and for a part of their breaks. At Penrice Academy in St Austell, Cornwall tables were flipped and a girl had her hair 'pulled out' after a demo was staged this afternoon.
