A disturbing series of videos has surfaced, depicting students being physically assaulted and mistreated at Firhill High School in Edinburgh, Scotland. Concerned parents have voiced alarm over the safety of their children following the circulation of three videos showing alarming instances of abuse.
In one video recorded in a school bathroom, three boys are seen attacking a young student who pleads for them to stop, while another clip shows a group of boys in a wooded area engaging in violent behavior towards each other. Additionally, footage captures two girls fighting outside, pulling hair and kicking each other.
One parent, speaking anonymously, expressed outrage at the lack of consequences for such incidents at the school, highlighting multiple fights and injuries sustained by students. The parent recounted a particularly distressing video where a boy was viciously attacked, resulting in serious injuries.
Edinburgh education chief councillor James Dalgleish reacted with deep shock upon viewing the footage, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy towards bullying and unacceptable behavior. Assuring parents of swift action, Dalgleish pledged to work closely with the school, education authorities, and law enforcement to address the situation urgently and provide support to the victims and their families.
