Cali I am really furious that little man is having to endure this bullying - if the school is aware of the problem then they should have taken the appropriate action in the past and when the child returned not let him back!! You get good Headteachers and bad ones just as you get strong ones and weak ones, but in many many cases it is whether the Board of governors of the school is strong enough. It is no good having a strong Headteacher and a good Bullying Policy in the School only for the BOG not to back the teaching staff.
You have to take the no nonsense approach to this as you are fighting your little one's corner. I know from past experience and from the wife's experience when she was a school governor all those years, that schools do not like it when a parent starts to involve their MP or even better by taking the matter direct to the Secretary for Education. Schools hate to be investigated themselves - use all the means possible to get justice for your son.
Good luck and will be holding thumbs that all goes well.

Always enjoy life - and remember there is always someone worse off than yourself - treat others as you yourself would want to be treated.
