The youngest child in Bradford to receive an Anti-Social Behaviour Order could be admitted to a boarding school for problem youngsters funded by taxpayers.

His mum said she was "hopeful" that her 11-year-old son Aneeze Williamson would be accepted into the countryside private home for youngsters with behavioural problems following a string of convictions and Court appearances.

Williamson, of West Royd Close, Windhill, Shipley, was made the subject of a full ASBO which barred him from every street on the estate where he lives except his own for two years at Bingley Magistrates Court yesterday. He has also been banned from Shipley town centre and the West Royd and Wood End estates.

Williamson was given an interim ASBO in October but Shipley Community Housing Trust applied for the order to be made in full.

During the first hearing magistrates heard how Williamson had abused neighbours, shouted racial abuse and had been involved in burglaries and arson attacks.

The ASBO means that Williamson cannot even play on his street unless he is accompanied by certain members of his family.

But speaking after the hearing, mum Debbie Williamson said she hoped he would be admitted into the Priory Healthcare-run Eden Grove in Appleby, Cumbria, early next year.

Miss Williamson, 36, an unemployed mother-of-three, said: "Now he'll get a life and an education. It'll be better for him and for us all. We want to get through Christmas, get him to the school and start a new life. Now I know my family can help me have a break."

She said he would attend the school during the week and come home at weekends.

"He's going to have a much better life if we can get him off the estate and out of trouble," Miss Williamson said. "I'll be able to get a job. Everyone benefits."

She said after the interim order was passed she had received hate mail from around the country labelling her son "scum."

Under the order, William-son will only be allowed to walk a specific route to his home along Leeds Road.

He will be allowed into restricted areas if accompanied by his grandparents, Jean and Alec Williamson, aunt Jacqueline William-son, and uncles Malcolm Sharp, and Marc, Michael and Christopher Boocock.

It is understood the application to admit Williamson to the school has been made between Bradford Council's Social Services department, Education Bradford and other agencies. The Council declined to comment.

Williamson attended Windhill Primary School until he was excluded aged seven and then went to a pupil referral unit in West Bowling for two years but was excluded from there as well.

Lorraine O'Brien, executive director of Shipley Community Housing Trust, said: "We will not hesitate to take similar action against those who make life miserable for their neighbours."
