Having published this article I received an email from one of the teenagers involved in this incident.
He said "Unfortunately, I was one of those teenagers and my friend was the one who ended up with serious head injuries. He was left unconscious with trainer marks in the side of his head.
"Whilst I was able to escape with only minor bruising to the face, a broken lip and a swollen ear, my friend spent the night in hospital and has not come into school yet.
