I want to reassure the pupils, parents, school and wider Horsham communities that this investigation will establish the truth of what happened that day.
“We continue to work closely with the school to ensure that our investigation compliments the significant efforts that the school is making to return to normality at the earliest opportunity.
“It is important that the investigation is allowed to progress and I would ask that rumour and speculation via social media or other avenues - whilst understandable in the circumstances - are avoided to ensure the integrity of our investigation.
“I would like to appeal again to anyone with information that may help us in our investigation to contact police 101, email [email protected] or call the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111. “
