10 year old spoke to by poilce after spelling terraced house terrorist house

Glad the teacher reported it. Teachers from July 2015 have a legal obligation to report signs of kids being radicalised or extreme. Sad for the kid but it's better safe than sorry...
Bit silly really the teacher should have asked him a few questions herself and found out it was just a spelling mistake.

based on a reasonable belief
If anyone truly believes that they should seriously consider seeking psychiatric help.

Precisely what has "happened" to him? He was asked a few questions, the misunderstanding was cleared up.
The tendency for the Muslim community and their leftist fellow travellers to go into hysterics and shriek about victimhood in response to complete non-events is pathetically sad.
If they took the plague of terrorism and elevated levels of criminality that exist within their community half as seriously as they take any opportunity to pose as benighted victims of the evil Western conspiracy against Islam, we might actually see some progress

Typical left-wing behaviour: "I am offended because someone, somewhere, somewhen may possibly be offended".
It seems like "BLM" attitude now crawled inside Britain and so everyone who isn't white is victimised whereas white, 'privileged' people are usually to blame for everything.

Poor little kid

Unfortunately, the working life of a teacher is now inextricably bound up with regulations, forms and protocols. It really isn't worth your career to skip official procedure because you think it's "a bit silly".
Said regulations need looking at. Of course sometimes it's necessary to get the police involved but this time seemed a little OTT and a waste of police time and money.
Isis are starting on them young and younge these days.

Poor little fella 
indeed- what kind of household is he coming from where he learns to spell terrorist before terraced
Exactly, what is the world coming to these days?! it's frightening to know that this type of thing can happen to anyone
Opps it seems here was a little more to this than originally reported
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/lancashire-police-say-terrorist-house-incident-not-about-spelling-mistake-a6824481.html
The student had written 'I hate it when my uncle beats me' and 'I live in a terrorist house with my uncle'.

Imagine how much trouble the school would have been in if they hadn't investigated it further.
Original post by HAnwar
Lol can't believe people are actually approving of police involvement here.
Ah well, that's TSR for you.
Ah well, that's TSR for you.
So when a child writes a report saying he hates it when his uncle beats him and he lives in a terrorist house the school is to do nothing!

So much trouble

Did you not see his father's response to that?

No but how would we know the fathers response if it hadn't been investigated.

And they really needed to get the police involved for that.

If a child writes
'I hate being beaten by my uncle' and 'I live in a terrorist house' who should get involved?
IMO yes the police and social serves should defiantly be involved along with the school.
Original post by Viva Emptiness
I'm usually all for necessary police intervention but this seems like overkill even to me. Surely a quick "What did you mean by this word?" would have sufficed when the answer inevitably turned out to be "my house is in the middle of lots of other houses".
Why is that answer inevitable? It's a possible answer, perhaps even a likely answer, but not the only one possible.
The same people complaining about this would be screaming their heads off if it turned out that a terrorist successfully launched an attack from this household and nothing had been done in response to this weak evidence. Everyone can be a genius with hindsight, and school children are used to perfect solutions being at least possible; in the real world, things fail more often than they succeed, most ends are dead ends, and even a 5% success rate in matters like terrorist detection is excellent.
There was a more than 5% chance that he meant what he wrote.
