Teenager in Wales given detention sentence for stabbing teacher in head

Thursday 3rd September 2026

Judge voices concern about possible copycat incidents after boy, 16, found guilty over attack at school in Pembrokeshire

A judge has expressed concern over possible copycat attacks on school staff as he sentenced a teenager who stabbed a teacher in the head to four and a half years in youth detention.

Judge Thomas KC said it was the second such attack in south-west Wales in two years and that the authorities might have to consider what security measures were in place to protect teachers.
