Teenager to stand trial later this month over Ammanford school stabbing
The 14 year old will stand trial at Swansea Crown Court on September 30th.
A teenage girl accused of stabbing two teachers and a pupil at a school in Wales has appeared in court.
The 14-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, faces seven charges - three of attempted murder, three of wounding with intent and one of possession of a bladed article on a school premises in Ammanford, Carmarthenshire.
The girl, who wore a white shirt and black tie, appeared via video link at Swansea Crown Court on Tuesday for a review of the case before it heads to trial on September 30.
William Hughes KC, appearing for the prosecution, told Judge Paul Thomas that there may be 19 witnesses to be called but said that number "may be significantly reduced".
He said he expects witness testimony to last 15 to 20 minutes, with witnesses first being called on Wednesday October 2, with evidence concluding in the second week of the trial.
The trial is listed for two weeks.
Caroline Rees KC appeared on behalf of the defence.
The girl previously denied three counts of attempted murder but pleaded guilty to the lesser charges of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm at a hearing last month.
Pupils at Amman Valley School, also known as Ysgol Dyffryn Aman, went into lockdown on April 24 after the incident at the end of morning break.
Teachers Fiona Elias and Liz Hopkin and a pupil were hurt but have since been released from hospital.
