Nearly £250,000 has been donated to a fund set up in memory of a Leeds teacher who was killed by one of her pupils.

The Ann Maguire Arts Education Fund was created through donations made in memory of Ann Maguire, who was tragically murdered in her classroom at Corpus Christi Catholic College two years ago today.

Coordinated by Leeds Community Foundation, the Fund provides bursaries and funding for the enhancement and personal development of young people under 18 years old through music, drama, language and dance.
