Shocking School Brawl Caught on Camera Sparks Outrage
A brutal classroom fight at a Chatham girls’ school has gone viral, exposing a disturbing wave of bullying and racial tension.
Violent Fight Recorded by Pupils
A 30-second video, filmed by one of the students, shows a white girl lunging at a black classmate, sparking a chaotic brawl. Kids punch, kick and pull hair as tables fly and other pupils watch — some even filming the violent scene. The terrified girl desperately tries to defend herself, but no teachers step in until half a minute has passed.
Parents Demand Action Amid Claims of Racism
The victim’s family is furious. Her mother, speaking anonymously, revealed she was advised by the school to move her three daughters elsewhere for safety. The family says bullying is rife, with the victim targeted “because of the colour of her skin.”
One sibling shared clips on Twitter, describing the attack as a “racial assault” by students allegedly linked to the traveller community — though this remains unconfirmed.
“This room has been set up to separate non-white kids from traveller students, but violence is still happening. My sister was kicked and stamped on the head,” she said.
School Vows to Crack Down on Violence and Racism
Chatham’s 1 Girls’ School said it is investigating the incident. Acting headteacher Louise Campbell said:
“The school is dedicated to stamping out violence and racism. We are committed to protecting all children and keeping parents informed during the investigation.”
But parents remain anxious. One told KentOnline her 12-year-old daughter is “too scared to walk down the corridor” following the fight, adding: “The racism is atrocious. This is not the first time — the school has seen riots over the past three years.”
Violence and Fear Spill Beyond the Classroom
After the fight, another video surfaced showing an angry woman shouting at a student outside the school bus, threatening violence.
With fears mounting, calls are growing for urgent action to end bullying and racial abuse at the school before more children suffer.
