一名10岁自闭症男孩因在学校携带仿真蝴蝶刀而遭永久开除，英格兰高等法院日前推翻了该决定 1。该男孩于2025年7月携带的刀具具有无锐边和圆形末端 1，学校随后对其先行临时开除，继而做出永久开除处分 1。
副高等法院法官Alan Bates在裁决中指出，永久开除应为"最后手段" 1，认为学校的决定缺乏比例性 1。法官同时建议教育部更新关于永久开除的指导方针 1。该案例属极其罕见的学校开除案件上诉至高等法院 1。根据教育部数据，2024-25学年秋季学期英格兰共有3700起永久开除，其中85%发生在中学、14%在小学、1%在特殊学校 1。
男孩母亲对法院裁决表示满意，她表示："我对高等法院的裁决感到非常高兴，我希望它能帮助其他学校的许多儿童和年轻人的生活" 1。
A ten-year-old autistic boy's permanent exclusion from school has been quashed by the High Court after he brought a replica butterfly knife to class.1 The knife, which the boy carried in July 2025, featured no sharp edges and had a rounded tip.1 Following an initial temporary exclusion, the school had moved to permanently exclude the child, but Deputy High Court Judge Alan Bates reversed that decision.1
In his ruling, Judge Bates determined that permanent exclusion should remain a measure of last resort and that the school's decision lacked proportionality.1 The case represents an exceptionally rare instance of a school exclusion being appealed to the High Court.1 According to Department for Education data, England recorded 3,700 permanent exclusions during the autumn term of the 2024-25 academic year, with 85 percent occurring in secondary schools, 14 percent in primary schools, and 1 percent in special schools.1 The judge has recommended that the Department for Education update its guidance on permanent exclusions.1
The boy's mother responded to the court's decision, stating: "I am very pleased with the High Court's ruling and I hope it will help the lives of many children and young people in other schools."1
