Maximum sentence for an assault occasioning grievous bodily harm (GBH) is LIFE imprisonment

As is ANY racially aggravated assault

An assault which occasions actual bodily harm (ABH) the maximum term is 5 years imprisonment

It depends how serious the assault is, here's a rough guide though

Common assault and battery - Max up to 6 mnths imprisonment

Assault Occasioning Actual Bodily Harm - Max 5 Years inprisonment

Malicious Wounding or Inflicting Grievous Bodily Harm - Max 5 Years (but can be longer as is more serious than ABH)

Wounding or causing Grievous Bodily Harm With Intent - Max Life inprisonment

For more detail search the net for the Offences Against The Person Act 1861, hope this helps!
