OK, bullying (racist or otherwise) is totally unacceptable, but I really don't understand how it could ever get that far. Surely expulsion should happen long before the child is taken to court?

It sounds more like a case of getting revenge on the child rather than punishing him, which is just wrong and happens far too often in society!
However, as always who knows the full details of the case, maybe there's something I've overlooked that makes this a perfectly acceptable way of dealing with it. I can't see what that would be though...
