Two students have been excluded from the school after footage of them assaulting another student emerged last week.
The incident took place at Darfield High School in Canterbury last Tuesday and was captured on camera by another student.
The video shows two boys punching another boy and standing over him before kicking him in the backside after being told to leave the scene.
It appears the boy was punched in the head twice by the same boy where he lay on the ground.
Today, Darfield High school released a statement outlining the action they have taken over the incident.
"On Tuesday 18 September a student was seriously assaulted at school by two other students.
"Following an investigation, the students were suspended from school pending a Board of Trustees disciplinary meeting. On Friday evening at the disciplinary meeting the Board of Trustees decided to exclude the students.
"This means they may not return to Darfield High School. Due to the confidential nature of the discipline meetings no further details can be released.
"Support has been offered to the victim and the school is liaising with the family to support him on his return to school.
"A complaint has been laid with the Police who are investigating the incident with the cooperation of the school."
