Probably not, you attempted to report it and needed more information.

Report it to police, then get a quote and send it to her registered mail or courier, signature required, with a note saying she got 7 days to cough up, no cough up, straight to tribunal.

She will be banking on the fact that you will not do anything about it...... surprise her.

Been there done that.... have always won.

The 50 also take a dim view of incidents around schools.
