The decision to allow a boy who repeatedly sexually abused a 15-year-old girl to stay at the same school as his victim in Derby has been branded a “disgrace” by the girl’s mother.
The 15-year-old girl, who cannot be named, told the Derby Telegraph she attends counselling because of the abuse, which happened regularly on the bus to school.
“He would grab my chest and put his hand up my skirt, but I was too embarrassed to tell anyone what was happening because he was in the year below me,” she said.
It was not until a second victim told the school about the boy’s abuse – naming the 15-year-old in the process – that she was contacted by her school and the boy was questioned by police.
The boy, who was 13 at the time, pleaded guilty to two counts of sexually touching underage girls without their consent.
