Husband of murdered teacher Ann Maguire thanks inquest jury

The husband of murdered teacher Ann Maguire has thanked an inquest jury, saying they have gone further than the police and council in investigating his wife's death. But he added: "There is more to learn." Don Maguire was speaking after a jury at Wakefield Coroner's Court concluded there had been safeguarding failings and "missed opportunities" in the run up to the attack on his wife by 15-year-old Will Cornick at Corpus Christi Catholic College, in Leeds, in April 2014. The jury returned a conclusion of unlawful killing, but also noted as a contributory factor how none of the 10 students Cornick told what he was going to do to his Spanish teacher informed an adult before the tragedy. Mr Maguire pushed for an inquest into his wife's death, arguing that no-one had ever looked properly at the facts surrounding her killing - especially why these children did not report what they were told that morning.
