The Telegraph A teenage girl from a leading private school was fatally stabbed moments after she rejected flowers from a boy, The Telegraph understands.
The 15-year-old, who has not been identified, was attacked outside a shopping centre on Wellesley Road, a major road running through Croydon town centre, at around 8.30am on Wednesday.
The Old Palace of John Whitgift school confirmed the victim was a pupil and said staff are shocked by her “senseless and tragic death”.
Eyewitnesses at the scene claimed an argument erupted on a bus between the girl, her friends and pupils from another local school, which then spilled over onto the pavement.
