Kiyan Prince, 15, is thought to have been stabbed as he tried to break up a fight outside the London Academy school in Edgware, north London, on Thursday.

A post-mortem examination gave the cause of Kiyan's death as a single stab wound to the chest.

Kiyan, who lived with his mother and 18-year-old sister, had been leaving school with dozens of fellow pupils on Thursday when police believe he became involved in an altercation.

School principal Phil Hearne said teachers saw the 15-year-old collapse a short distance from the school outside Stamford Court, in Kings Drive, and immediately contacted the police.

Tributes have been left at Loiftus Rd.

We offer sincere condolences to his family.
