Riley Roberts was expelled from Haywood Academy due to 'behavioural issues'
Riley Roberts was expelled from Haywood Academy, in Burslem, Stoke-on-Trent, because of 'behavioural issues' which previously resulted in multiple warnings and temporary expulsions. Despite this, mum Katey Cowans and step-dad Dan Walker, both 31, argue that Riley needs more one-to-one support in lessons - something they claim the academy can't provide.
"He was always wanting attention and pushing teachers to the limit," Dan said. "They couldn't handle him. “I have always said that he needs one-to-one work and a special school. It’s a joke and this should have been dealt with by now but no-one is doing anything. “We waited eight months for a tutor to come out and they only spend an hour a day with him which is pointless. He is very immature and needs to be around people his age. He is not growing up as he is spending a lot of time with his younger brother.
