SIX youths have appeared in court in connection with the stabbing of a 16-year-old pupil outside his school.
The boy was stabbed repeatedly outside Salesian College in Battersea, central London, on Thursday afternoon.
One youth, 16, of south London, appeared at West London Magistrates Court charged with grievous bodily harm with intent and violent disorder.
Five other youths from south London - one aged 14, two aged 15 and two aged 17 - were charged with violent disorder and appeared at the same court.
Ian Fraser, prosecuting, said the incident took place at about 3.15pm as pupils were leaving school for the day.
District Judge Andrew Sweet denied the 16-year-old bail and remanded him in police custody. He also remanded both the 17-year-olds in police custody.
He granted the 14-year-old and both 15-year-olds conditional bail.
The three youths will be electronically tagged, must reside at their home addresses under a curfew, and are banned from contact with their co-defendants, witnesses or the victim.
The victim, who was taken to hospital by air ambulance, is in a stable condition.
All six youths will appear at Balham Youth Court on Tuesday.
Salesian College is a Roman Catholic school for boys aged 11 to 16. It has 640 pupils
