The secondary school had created a "culture of racist bullying and harassment", it was claimed.
Henry Webster, who is now 18, suffered a fractured skull after he was repeatedly punched, kicked and hit with the sharp end of a claw hammer by a gang of Asian pupils.
Thirteen teenagers, and a man who did not attend the 1,400-pupil Ridgeway School in Wroughton, near Swindon, Wilts, were convicted of the attack at Bristol Crown Court last year.
Mr Webster is seeking compensation from the school, claiming there was a negligent failure to maintain proper discipline and deal with racial tension.
His counsel Robert Glancy, QC, told the High Court in London that the "undue indulgence and leniency" towards disaffected Asian pupils created an "obvious risk of racial violence".
Mr Glancy added: "We say there was a failure to provide security at the school and to prevent intrusion by trespassers.
"There was also a failure to supervise the tennis courts exit from the school and a failure to impose and maintain adequate disciplinary standards, including control of the group of pupils known as 'Asian Invasion'.
"There was a failure to deal with racial tensions and incidents, or to promote good relations between different racial groups.

イギリスで、アジア人の不良にぼこぼこにされた、という白人学生の記事で、学校での人種的緊張が高まり、不満を持ったアジア人学生が暴力を振るっているが、そうしたことに対する、学校におけるしつけ・指導・管理がしっかりしていなかった、という主張です。

　一部在日欧米人がほこる欧米における多文化主義・多民族主義ってのも、なかなか大変そうですね。

　日本でも、さまざまな人種の人が学校にいるでしょうし、そうしたケースがもっと増えるでしょう。
　
　教育に携わる方々も多民族、多文化主義をとる欧米の学校などのケースをいまのうちに研究されておいた方がよいかもしれませんね。
