School excludes boy for having a nut allergy

A bright pupil has been excluded from his new school because staff were unable to cope with his nut allergy.

George Hall-Lambert, 11, attended lessons for only four days before being told to stay away until the school could carry out a "risk assessment".



His mother, Judith, said her son had been labelled a "health and safety hazard" by teachers.

He is currently being taught at home, but Mrs Hall-Lambert, 37, warned he was already lagging behind in his schooling. "I'm absolutely appalled," she said.
