PUPILS have been disciplined at a Wilmslow secondary school after playground violence left a boy with a broken cheekbone.
The boy was treated in hospital for his injuries following the fight between rival groups of `moshers' and 'chavs' at Wilmslow High.
It is understood the fight was filmed on a mobile phone and posted on the internet. Parents said the school has suspended nine pupils following an investigation into the fight.
The 2,331-pupil comprehensive breaks up for the summer holidays tomorrow and staff have assured parents that the issue will be addressed in the next school year.
Police are not investigating.

... and this from someone that constantly berates GMP, and supports illegal money-lenders and 'proper' gangsters - as opposed to the 'fake' ones'.
Some consistency. please.

Iran would deal with these thugs, a nice rope and a public hanging once they reached 18, super way to deal with scum, the rope costs around £20 and all the public come and watch the hangings, shame this type of penalty isnt and never will be available here but if it was it would sort out the vermin who continue to take everything out of the benefits system and put nothing back into it.Wonder what would have happened if the victims were ethnics, a lot more than what will happen because they are mosher or goths.
Why not move to Iran then John? Sounds like you favour their form of Islamic justice. Then you would also gain an idea what it is like to be an 'ethnic' in a foreign land. It could be a good learning experience.

one of the top high schools in the country has problems like elsewhere.
I have been working in that area recently and these kids are no different from others no matter where they live.

Just wondering how much time you've spent in Iran?
You've posted a lot of comments on various stories with references to Iran - what's the score?
