The school had called Sal's mum asking her to pick him up after he had "a bump". But after putting him to bed with Calpol, Yaseen's mum could not wake the tot up the next morning. His dad Simriel Uddin told the Mail: "He was a bright, joyful spirit and he was a beautiful, kind-hearted little boy.
"He had a head collision in school -the school told my wife 'Oh, your son has bumped his head'. "When she asked if it was anything serious they said, 'No it’s nothing serious, it’s just a bump'.". Last week Marlborough Primary School paid tribute to little Yaseen, who was described as a "wonderful and much-loved pupil".
The school is "devastated" to hear of Yaseen's death and fellow pupils are being supported by the school's pastoral team. Razia Ali, executive headteacher at Marlborough, told paid tribute to the student. Ms Ali said: "While some of you may already be aware of this, it is my sad duty to ensure you are all aware of the tragic news that one of our pupils, Muhammad Yaseen Uddin, a wonderful and much-loved child in Year 2, passed away.
