Member of staff found dead at school in Rugby

Headteacher Alison Davies said: "It is with the greatest sadness that, following police advice, the decision has been made to close the school on Tuesday 29 January, 2019, following the death of a colleague on the school's site.

"Early in the morning, as the school was being unlocked, a member of the school's site team was found dead. The police have been informed and have advised us to close the school for the day.

"We have alerted as many parents and carers as possible that the school will be closed today, Tuesday 29 January, 2019.

"This is a huge shock for our entire school community and our thoughts and prayers go to our colleague's, family and friends at this very sad time.

"The school will be actively offering emotional support to staff and pupils who have been affected by the tragic incident in the days and weeks ahead."
