A father has removed his son from school after he was left a mess when bullies stamped on his face leaving him needing medical treatment.
Dominic Mizon, 13, had to have an x-ray on his face to check there were no fractures and suffered bruises to his ribs, back and neck.
He has not returned to The de Ferrers Academy in Burton, Staffordshire, since the attack.
However, the school has said that the attack was entirely avoidable and provoked through Dominics own poor behaviour. He has been suspended four times and autism experts say his condition is not to blame for his poor behaviour.
Dad Sean Mizon, 50, said: I got a call from my partner to say that Dominic needed picking up and had to go to the hospital because he had been beaten up at school.

Hes my lad and I am passionate about getting this sorted. It is so scary – I dont want to have to go to my sons funeral.
Mr Mizon accepts his son has at times been violent and has been suspended several times. He said the alleged assault happened at de Ferrers on Thursday, July 4.
A spokesman for The de Ferrers Academy, which has sites in St Marys Drive and Harehedge Lane, said: Staff at The de Ferrers Academy go to incredible lengths to look after the pupils in their care, includRead More – Source
