Tributes have flooded in for a "special" teacher who was described as a "true legend".
David Harris, who worked at Ormskirk Cross Hall High School, was described as one of the school's "finest maths teachers", who became the department's "trusted and friendly face". Mr Harris, who died age 77, was also known for organising the school's ski-trips before he retired from teaching in 1997.
Ormskirk Cross Hall High School said in a statement posted online: "It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of another legendary teacher of our times. David Harris was one of our finest maths teachers, who passed away, suddenly last week.
