Newport: So, there was this pretty shocking incident at Newport High School. A former student, who’s around 11 to 14 years old, broke in and attacked three teachers. It’s really concerning, right?
One of the teachers ended up in the hospital, but thankfully, the injuries were minor for the others. The whole thing happened in front of other staff and students, which must have been really scary.
The school quickly went into lockdown mode to keep everyone safe. They’re now looking into whether they could have done anything more to prevent this. It’s a tough situation for everyone involved.
Gwent Police showed up to handle the situation, and they’re still investigating what went down. The school and the local council said it was an “extremely upsetting” event for both staff and students.
