A 12-year-old boy hasn't been to school in over a year after he was kicked out.
Riley Roberts was expelled from Haywood Academy, in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, because of 'behavioural issues' which previously resulted in multiple warnings and temporary expulsions. Despite this, mum Katey Cowans and step-dad Dan Walker, both 31, argue that Riley needs more one-to-one support in lessons - something they claim the academy can't provide.
While Riley has been left without a school for an entire year, medical tests have concluded that he doesn't have ADHD. Meanwhile, Stoke-on-Trent City Council is being urged to find a school suitable for Riley, StokeonTrent Live reports.
