Ann Maguire 'more friend than teacher', says former pupil

A teacher has been stabbed to death in front of pupils inside a school in Leeds.

Spanish teacher Ann Maguire, 61, was taken to hospital following the attack but later pronounced dead.

A 15-year-old boy was detained by teaching staff at Corpus Christi Catholic College and later arrested.

Nathan Valentine, a former pupil of Mrs. Maguire at the school, told the BBC she was more like a friend than a teacher.
