The pupil bloodied and battered beyond recognition by teenage girls

Her face bloodied and battered, this is Bethany James, the latest victim of the pupil-on-pupil violence blighting Britain's schools.

 

The appalling injuries inflicted on the 15-year-old are shocking enough. But what is more horrifying is that they were the work of two teenage girls.

This photo of Bethany was taken in hospital by her mother, Tracey James, who said: 'The picture is shocking. I want people to know what the reality of bullying means.'

Battered and bruised: Bethany in hospital in a photo taken by her mother

Bethany had been tormented by bullies at her school in Bradford, West Yorkshire, for four years – including being subjected to a torrent of insults and abusive text and internet messages.

But it was as she was leaving a video shop near her home in Undercliffe with friends on September 7 that she was beaten up.

She was kicked and punched to the ground by the girls, whom she recognised from school. They pulled her hair and stamped on her head as she lay helpless on the pavement.

One friend called her mother, who arrived in time to pull one of the girls away from Bethany and drive the injured girl to Bradford Royal Infirmary.

Mrs James, a 46-year-old hairdresser, and her husband Anthony rushed to the hospital.

 

Picked on: Bethany was bullied for four years

Mr James, 47, a telecoms engineer, said: 'It was horrific as a parent to see one of your children in a hospital bed covered in blood. I couldn't believe it. It was only when I got to the hospital that I realised the full extent of the attack.'

Mrs James added: 'I've never seen anything like it. One of the doctors said she looked like she'd been in a car crash.

'Her nose was split open, her mouth had been kicked and her braces caused lacerations, her lips were badly swollen, she was covered in blood, it was all over her clothes, and lumps of her hair were missing.'

Mrs James claimed teachers had failed to put a stop to the repeated bullying endured by her daughter at Immanuel CE Community College in Thackley.

She said: 'I've been to the school on at least six occasions to tell them Bethany was being bullied, but it has continued.

'Since the attack she has been going to school for only two hours a day in the isolation unit, while these girls carry on as normal. The school wants her back in class as soon as possible, but who wants to go back to these animals?'

Two weeks on, Bethany is still in pain. She said: 'My nose is still bruised and hurts at the top. I'm too embarrassed to go out.'

Police said two girls have been questioned as witnesses but no arrests have been made.

Chris Robinson, deputy head at Immanuel College, said: 'Any bullying that the college becomes aware of is dealt with in a robust manner supported by the additional care we show for each other through our strong Christian ethos.'

    If anyone ever did anything like that to one of my children then I would come completely unhinged.  There would be no stopping me.

    What kind of parents raised monsters like the girls that did this?  And how can their parents not consider sending them to a long stay in a psychiatric hospital after committing such a crime?   They don't need to be back in school until they have a long evaluation done on their state of mind.

    Boohoo.... maybe if she wasn't such a bitch they wouldn't of beat her ass?

     

     

    "this picture is shocking"

     

    Its a fat lip and a cut on the nose she let bleed all over herself after losing a fight.... if she had washed her face instead of letting blood dry all over herself as "evidence" for her mother to photograph it wouldn't look half as bad.

    I've been out of high school for close to 5 years now, and more girls got in fights than did guys.

    My last year of high school, 4 years ago, the school started getting out of control. At lunch, all the black kids were trying to take over the entire cafeteria, tables and lines. The year after I graduated a girl was stabbed in the bathroom, so I can only assume its gotten worse since then.

    That is EXACTLY what happened at my school my junior and also my senior year.

    The administration didn't know what to do.  They called all of us in for an assembly, but after it was over it just made things worse.  There was a group of black kids who thought that causing trouble was cool.  They would start fights with people and then get mad if they got suspended saying it was racist.  One girl even showed back up on campus after being suspended and then got arrested.  There were rumor then that they were going to cause even more trouble.

    This is how bad it was.  I was friends with this black dude (we have been friends since 5th grade) and I was just walking down the hall one day when I got threatened.  It was someone I didn't even know who was threatening me.  I was with my buddy and he told the guy to lay off that I was cool.  Then the guy started threatening him saying that he was someone trying to be white.  A teacher in the art classroom heard what was going on and came out.  But the guy even threatened her (the teacher).

    I guess every country has their type of bully crowd.  I don't think all black people are like the ones at my school (I know they're not), but I have to admit that there weren't any white bullies there.  None.  At least none that I saw.  But I saw a LOT of blacks bullying other kids.

    Worst fights at my school were always between girls. When it was guy v guy it was mostly a silly little skirmish that was broken up fairly quickly, but a catfight was somthing you didn't get in the middle of.
