Boy, 15, seriously injured in stabbing at Nottingham school

A teenage boy has been seriously injured in a stabbing at a school in Nottingham.

Police said officers were called to Nottingham University Academy of Science and Technology (NUAST) in Dunkirk Road at around 1.30pm on Thursday.

The 15-year-old was taken to Queen's Medical Centre with serious injuries.

Another 15-year-old boy was arrested at the scene. It is understood the two teenagers are known to each other.

Nottinghamshire Police Superintendent Chris Pearson said: "This is obviously an unsettling incident to occur on school grounds, and we are working closely with NUAST."

He said there is nothing to suggest the incident is linked to "the national 'School Wars' social posts", a viral social media trend which encourages pupils from different schools to attack each other.

The injured boy's family "will be supported by specially trained officers", the superintendent said, adding the incident "is likely to cause alarm and distress" locally, "especially for parents and pupils in the area".
