A cross-party group of MPs have written to Home Secretary Suella Braverman calling for the government to investigate a 'racially aggravated' assault on a black schoolgirl. Five have been arrested - including two 11-year-olds - and since released on bail. A 15-year-old remains at large.
Meanwhile, officers said they are also seeking another 15-year-old girl in connection with the attack.
"If accurate, this inadequate response is cause for considerable concern for the safeguarding of students, in particular black, Asian and ethnic minority students, at the school. Raising the incident in the House of Commons on Thursday lunchtime, Ms Daby she said she had"lost sleep" over Monday's"horrific" attack and said while a police investigation is under way"it's the responsibility of the local government and central government that this incident is being investigated fully".
Thousands of people have signed a Change.org petition criticising the school's response, while dozens attended a protest at the school on Wednesday afternoon.
