A 10-year-old boy has been arrested over an alleged attack on two women teachers.
One of the victims – who were both in their 50s – suffered a broken leg and suspected dislocated kneecap and the other sustained a facial injury, Scotland Yard said.
Both women were taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital following the alleged incident in Orpington, south-east London.
Police were called to the school in Avalon Road at 1pm on Thursday to reports that a pupil had assaulted two teachers.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “A 10-year-old boy was arrested at the scene on suspicion of grievous bodily harm and was taken to a south-east London police station.
“He has been bailed to return on a date in mid-February.”

The idea is part of an eight-step action plan to “high-tech growth” set out in a speech today by Mr Willetts, the universities and science minister, who said the government wanted Britain to become the “best place in the world to do science”.
He said the idea for a new university had been partly inspired by an initiative led by New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, under which Cornell University is to build a campus on the city’s Roosevelt Island in partnership with Technion-Israel Institute of Technology.
But Mr Willetts said the proposal, which would not receive any additional funding from government, also tied into the theme of opening up higher education to alternative providers, including foreign universities.

Texas A&M University continues to move up in Kiplinger’s annual listing of “best values” among the nation’s top 100 public colleges, now ranking 21st — and tops in Texas.
The widely circulated personal finance magazine has just released its 2011-12 rankings, which are based on a combination of academic quality and affordability, note the publication’s editors.
Texas A&M ranked 23rd on Kiplinger’s “best values” public college list last year and 30th the previous year. It is one of only three Texas universities to be included on that list this year, followed by the University of Texas at Austin and the University of Texas at Dallas.
