A TEENAGER will appear at North Avon Youth Court next month after being charged in relation to an alleged incident involving a knife at Marlwood School in Alveston.

The 13-year-old girl is accused of assault by beating and possessing a blade on school premises.

She has been bailed to appear at the court in Yate on January 21.

Police carried out an investigation after receiving a report of an assault on November 25 that involved two pupils aged 13.
