Tributes have been paid to Harley Whittle, who tragically died on Friday.
The sudden death of a pupil has rocked a secondary school just a few months after a teacher tragically died after collapsing in the playground.
The circumstances surrounding the teenager's death have not been revealed, but a report has been filed to Rochdale Coroner's Office. In a letter to parents on Monday, the school said: "It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden unexpected loss of one of our St Gabriel's family. Some of your children may have been in this student's friendship circle.
"Please be assured that we are supporting their family. If you feel your child has been affected by this loss, please contact us to let us know so we can offer both counselling support now and emotional support over time. Chris Foley, catholic senior executive leader for the St Teresa of Calcutta Catholic Academy Trust, told the Manchester Evening News: "On Friday evening a pupil from St Gabriel’s unexpectedly passed away. The school and wider community, are all devastated by this loss.
