Jack

• Since the arson attack, some kids are really
  scared of Jack. Hes always had to live in Seans
  shadow, and although his brother has always
  looked out for him and warned him to stay out of
  trouble, even before he got excluded, people
  expect him to be like him. Jack is very different
  to Sean. He is a really good rugby player, does
  quite well academically and is popular. However,
  now fewer people want to talk to him and he feels
  even teachers look at him differently.
• He hasnt spoken to his brother since he was
  sentenced and he hasnt replied to any of Seans
  attempts at contacting him he even tore up the
  birthday card he sent. He knows who Josh is, but
  hes never actually spoken to him before. He
  feels really terrible about what his brother did
  to him and his mum.
