The 14-year-old boy who died in yesterday's sword attack in Hainault, northeast London has been named.

Daniel Anjorin was knifed to death whilst on his way to school when a man launched into an attack, leaving four others injured.

He was a pupil at Bancroft's private school in Woodford Green - which was also attended by Nottingham attack victim Grace O'Malley-Kumar.

The school's flag is flying at half-mast following the incident.

His mother works as a teacher at Holy Family School in Walthamstow, who said the following in a statement published on their website: "It is with great sadness that I share with you the news of the death of the child of one of our staff members.

"Mrs Anjorin's son was taken from this life suddenly this morning on his way to school. Please keep Mrs Anjorin, her husband and their other children in your prayers."
