\"knifing<\/a>A 14-year-old boy was handed an 11-year sentence on Monday for stabbing his teacher in the stomach in a racially-motivated attack.
\nThe teenager, who cannot be named due to legal restrictions, admitted causing grievous bodily harm with intent to Vincent Uzomah at a school in Bradford, northern England.
\nThe boy used a racially-offensive term before knifing the 50-year-old teacher in a pre-planned attack in June before his classmates, then bragged about the attack on Facebook.
\n\u201cWhat you have done is utterly shocking \u2014 deliberately, callously stabbing him,\u201d judge Jonathan Durham Hall said at Bradford Crown Court.
\nHe sentenced the boy to six years in custody and a further five years on license. The youth is likely to serve three years in detention.
\nAround 20 minutes after the attack, the boy posted a message on Facebook which said Uzomah was \u201cgetin funny so I stick the blade straight in his tummy.\u201d
\nSome 69 people said they liked the post.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s an appalling reflection on a small microcosm of our society that within minutes or hours after posting, 69 people \u2018liked\u2019. How sick,\u201d said judge Hall.
\nThe teenager yawned and folded his arms as Hall passed sentence.
\nProsecutor Jonathan Sharp said Uzomah had suffered serious physical and psychological injuries and it was uncertain whether he will feel able to return to teaching.<\/p>\n
