Yara, an ethnic German girl, was a student at an immigrant-majority school in Germany where she was the only child who was fluent in the national language. She was bullied by the migrant children daily and stabbed by an Arab child. The teacher made her finish out the school day despite having been cut in the abdomen with a sharp object. The school board was notified and Yara changed schools.
A news item from German broadcaster Sat 1 tells about the traumatic experience 8-year-old Yara had at a migrant majority school. She became an outcast, was bullied and even stabbed.
Little Yara was the last person in her classroom who spoke German at home. Her school can be characterised as a migrant majority school with Turks and Arab migrants as students.
“They needed to employ an interpreter to translate from German to Turkish or Arabic in order for the Turkish, Arabic people to even understand what was going on. I felt a bit lost and that’s when I realised how it must feel for my daughter,” the girl’s father, Mike F., tells Sat 1.
