Like everyone I'm shocked and stunned.

Hard to image the 'why' and 'how' such things happen. Must have been traumatic for those pupils in the class.

RIP Anne Maguire

Dreadful

What is the reasoning behind these kind of incidents? RIP Anne Maguire!

The alleged killer is a 15 year old - so if convicted one supposes he will get some sort of "life" sentence.

We need a mandatory death sentence for pre-meditated murder - vermin like Lee Rigby's murderers would think twice if they knew they'd be swinging from a noose rather than spending 20 years in Butlins

From the reports that I've seen she appears to have been an exceptional human being.

A tragedy for her and all those who cared about her.

I don't think there is much that can be done to stop one in a million teenagers behaving irrationally in this way, but thank goodness we at least have strict gun laws here.
