Police were called to a primary school in the Dyce area of Aberdeen after a child was attacked by a fellow pupil.

Officers attended the school – which cannot be named for legal reasons – at around 2:40pm on Monday.

The alleged victim did not require any medical treatment and police traced another child “in connection with the incident”.

A report will be submitted to the relevant partner agencies.

Parents concerned by alleged bullying

A parent, who wishes to remain anonymous, said they are concerned about bullying at the school.

They told The Press and Journal: “I went to go pick up my children on Monday and there were two police cars stationed outside the school, on school grounds.

“At the end of the day, this is a massive safety concern and I’ve said to the school multiple times.

“I just really don’t want to see anybody get hurt.”

School ‘dealt with the incident immediately’

A police spokesperson said: “Around 2.40pm on Monday, July 1 we were called to a report of an assault on a child in Aberdeen.

“Officers attended. No medical treatment was required.

“Another child was traced in connection with the incident and a report will be submitted to partner agencies.”

An Aberdeen City Council spokesperson said: “The school dealt with the incident immediately and took the appropriate action.

“The safety of everyone in our schools remains our top priority.”
