Her family claim two female pupils, both 12, from Oldfield School in Bath, Somerset, were suspended and one aged 14 expelled following the incident. The school said that “appropriate sanctions” had been imposed.
The girl’s brother said his sister “was followed home” and ordered to fight one of the girls or be beaten up.

Levi’s death was yesterday released and will face no further action.
Police said all those involved in the incident in Rushden, Northants, on Saturday night knew each other and it was “not a random attack”.
Supt Dennis Murray said: “My understanding is that two vehicles were involved in an altercation.
“A 25-year-old woman was pronounced dead at the scene. My heart goes out to the family.
“What we don’t know is exactly what part the two vehicles had in this.
“We believe the perpetrators appear to be known to each other.
“Those two cars had an altercation before they came to a stop. There was a crash when the vehicles came together.
“My understanding was she was injured when she was outside the vehicle. We believe this is an isolated incident.
“Our officers are working to ensure that people are kept safe as
I am sure people will be scared.”
A friend of Levi, who according to
Facebook had worked for the British
Army and as a disability support staff worker, said: “What I’ve been told is two lads were getting into a stabby fight. “She tried to get in the middle and she got stabbed. It’s awful.” Another pal said Levi had recently broken up with her partner and it had “hit her pretty hard”. They added: “She was a wonderful mum and one-in-a-million. I feel so sorry for her two little girls.” One neighbour said they heard a “loud bang” and screams. Pattamaea Kuttppa, 77, who lives nearby, said: “I heard a big thud. I thought it was a car accident.” Last night forensics teams were examining a £500,000 detached house close to the scene.
