Manchester attack: Give children chance to talk

Headteacher Richard Sheriff says at times of crisis they have to make sure that "school is a safe place to be" for children.

Seven children from Harrogate Grammar School in North Yorkshire were at the concert at Manchester Arena - all are safe but two are still in hospital with shrapnel injuries.

Mr Sheriff said their fellow pupils were shocked by what had happened, which made teachers want to make
"school as normal as possible", allowing children to openly discuss their feelings "in a safe environment with people that they trust".
