A trans boy attempted suicide after a schoolmate jabbed him repeatedly with a knife and snarled: “Go kill yourself.”
The 12-year-old – who we are calling Adam to protect his identity – was terrified of returning to class, his mum says.
Police investigated a possible hate crime after Adam, who is in Year 7, revealed the same boy had previously bullied him over his gender identity. The suspect has been allowed to stay at the secondary school in Dorset but mum Ellie has removed Adam for his safety.
