The headteacher of an exclusive private school has been found dead alongside her husband and seven-year-old daughter on the grounds of the school. Police rushed to Epsom College, in Surrey, after being called by ambulance services at roughly 1am on Sunday.
Here, officers discovered the bodies of Emma Pattison, 45, her daughter Lettie, seven, and her husband George, 39. Tributes to Ms Pattison described her as a "delightful person" and "wonderful teacher", the Mirror reports.
Epsom College, which has 850-students and costs £45,000-a-year to attend, was recently crowned Independent School of the Year in 2022. Mr Pattison, who was made headteacher in September 2022, was said to have had a "distinguished career".
