Commenting on the incident that occurred at Milford Haven Comprehensive in Pembrokeshire, Daniel Kebede, General Secretary of the National Education Union, said:
“The NEU is very saddened to hear of the shocking incident at Milford Haven Comprehensive School. Our thoughts are with the teacher, their family, and the whole school community.
“Schools should be places of safety for everyone who passes through the gates. No one should ever have to experience violent or aggressive behaviour while carrying out their work or their studies.
“The NEU has been in touch with our members at the school to offer whatever support they may need at this distressing time”.
