'Racism and constant abuse' of Raheem Bailey, 11-year-old boy who lost finger
"He has been called the n-word as well... I don't think he understood 100% what the n-word meant," she said, but added that any adult would have identified it as racism."Each day he had to build himself up to go in because he knew he was going to get picked on... that's painful, that a child has to almost prepare themselves before going into a place that's meant to be safe and tranquil.
Ms Bailey said teachers and head teachers need to step up efforts to ensure it is not the bullied child that ends up having to be moved from a school. More needs to be done to make parents take the complaints more seriously, she said."But it shouldn't be the child that's coming to school and behaving that's feeling the pressure," she said.She set up a fundraising campaign following the incident which has received over £100,000 in donations.
He has mostly accepted that this is his "new normal", she said, although he does occasionally get down.
