An investigation has been launched into the death of a 12-year-old pupil at Liverpool’s King David High School.

Oliver King died on Wednesday after collapsing from what was thought to be a seizure in the school’s swimming pool.

Paramedics took him to hospital but could not save him.

Merseyside police are looking into what was described as an “unexplained death” while counselling is to be offered to staff and his peers.
