A Glasgow secondary school is in 'mourning' after one of their pupils passed away on Sunday.

Artian Lushaku was struck by a red Toyota Aygo on Balmore Road at around 5.45pm last Wednesday. Emergency services rushed the 13-year-old to hospital where he sadly died four days later.

The Cleveden Secondary School pupil has been described as 'confident' and 'caring'. His classmates have been left 'devastated' following his untimely death.

Headteacher, Claire Wilson, said: “Our school community is in mourning, and we are devastated about the tragic death of Artian who was loved by everyone who knew him.

“He has been with us for two years and in that time, he has left such a mark on our school with his confident, outgoing, friendly, caring, and enthusiastic nature. Artian brought a sense of fun to anything he set his mind to.

“We will do everything we can to support our school community over the coming days and months.”
