Ch Supt Paul Money of West Yorkshire Police said the victim received a number of stab wounds and a knife was recovered from the scene. He said the 15-year-old pupil was detained by other teaching staff and arrested in connection with the stabbing.

"The incident itself was over very quickly and no other pupils or staff were threatened or injured. However this has clearly been a very traumatic situation for those involved," Mr Money said.

He said the attack was an "unprecedented event" and schools in Leeds were "generally very safe places" to work and study.

Some pupils at the school today said the boy who allegedly stabbed the teacher was 'strange' and 'depressed', Daily Mail UK reports. Pupil Jacob Hill, 16, from Leeds, said: 'He had gone through stages of depression and used to be on anti-depressants.'

West Yorkshire Police Chief Superintendent Paul Money said tonight: 'The alarm was raised by the students in the school, some of whom witnessed the offence.'A 61-year-old member of staff was treated by paramedics at the scene then taken to hospital but she tragically died.

'A 15-year-old pupil at the school was detained by teaching staff immediately after this incident occurred and was taken into custody in Leeds.'

He described the incident as unprecedented and said staff he had spoken to were in shock. He also confirmed the victim suffered a number of stab wounds and a knife was recovered from the scene.

The school, which is a specialist technology college, is consistently oversubscribed - and also has 'a strong Christian and community ethos'.
