The family of a 7-year-old autistic boy has raised serious concerns after alleging that he was assaulted by another student inside a municipal school in the Santa Cruz neighborhood of Campina Grande, Paraíba. The incident was made public through social media, with the family asserting that the school failed to inform them about the situation. Reports from G1 indicate that the child was found with bruises on his arms and groin, and his mother mentioned that he also experienced head pain, leading them to seek medical attention at the Hospital de Trauma de Campina Grande.

The child, characterized as Level 2 autistic, is enrolled in the second grade at Escola Municipal Padre Cornélio Boer. His family expressed dissatisfaction with the school's supervision protocols and criticized the lack of immediate assistance following the incident. The case highlights significant concerns regarding the safety and well-being of children with disabilities in educational environments, particularly regarding appropriate supervision and responses to incidents of violence.

This incident not only raises questions about the specific incident but also about broader issues of how schools accommodate and protect vulnerable students like the one involved. It prompts inquiries into the measures that schools have in place to prevent such occurrences and the communication protocols followed when incidents happen, particularly in situations involving children with special needs, who may require additional support and protection from bullying or aggression.
