The 17-year-old was set upon by a group of up to 20 youths outside the Chadwell Heath campus of Redbridge College at about 3pm on March 26.
Officers have said there was no obvious reason for the attack.
The victim escaped serious injury, and suffered only a cut to his finger, which was later stitched at Queens Hospital.
