Depending upon the age of the defendant, the student in the fact pattern you described, can be charged with assault and possibly other charges. Certainly, a minor can make areprot the police about any crime that is committed against them. In most cases, the police will want to talk to the minor's parent or guardian. They might make the report out in sich away that the parent is the accused, with the attacked minor being a witness.
