AN INCIDENT at a rural school which has left a 14-year-old student hospitalised has teachers shaken and frustrated.

In fact, some teachers say they are fed up with the increased number of violent acts at the school and quick action is needed to control the festering problem.

According to reports, during a fight at the school on Tuesday a male student struck the victim around his head with a piece of wood. The victim is currently in the Intensive Care Unit at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

A source told the WEEKEND NATION the boy was struck during an industrial arts class. (RB)
