At such an awful time I’m sure that everyone in our community will join with us in passing on our deepest condolences and sympathy to everyone touched by this tragic event.”

He added: “Support will be made available to any pupils or staff in the weeks ahead but in the meantime our thoughts are with the family, we literally have no words.”
