16 year old arrested
Notifications OFF
Hi everyone, I know you'll all understand what I'm going through right now, this is all unbelievably heartbreaking. My son had just started his A Levels, got himself a Saturday job and things were finally looking good for us after a few rough years (other circumstances). Then he got arrested. Released under investigation, but has Category A B C images on his phone. We're absolutely devastated. He's been expelled from school and had to give up his job (was working with minors), and we don't know where to go from here.
Hello,
I'm so sorry to hear that, it is the worst feeling. We are out the other side now, so wanted to reassure you that things do get better.
Has he been expelled from school because of this? Please reach out if you have any questions.
Hugs xx

Yes, permanent school exclusion, we're just dealing with the fallout at the moment. Seeing if it's possible for him to continue A levels or not ...
Glad to hear that life has got better for your family, that's reassuring. Thanks for responding

That's so unfair. Could he move to a college instead to compete his A levels, as they will be all 16 and over? My son did not have to leave school, we had a SW contact us and she said she was going to inform school, but we didn't even hear from school about it! He was 15 at the time, the end of year 10.
We have younger children also but he got to stay with us. The SW who called us only once, did not seem overly concerned and said they get so many referrals like this now.
Let me know if you want to talk or have any further questions. We waited a long time and in the end despite lots of images being found, it was resolved out of court and with a community resolution order, which isn't a charge.
He is 17 now and doing A levels.
If you are in the Midlands I can recommend a solicitor, she was amazing.
