million pieces I love you so much Harvey. Hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight cos I wish I could." Another wrote: "Absolutely no words to this devastation. My heart
absolutely breaks. RIP Harvey Willgoose I'm so sorry this has happened to you you really didn't deserve this." Another added: "A city numb from this afternoons news,
questions need to be ask, punishments need to be raised for anyone using or carrying knives too many innocent lives are been taken. "Fly high Blademan, a cruel world you've been
taken far too soon lad far too soon. Thinking of all his mates and there's plenty of you stay safe lads and to all his family I send love." And a third said: "My hearts broken
for the young lads and lasses, I can't get my head around it he was such a lovely lad always giving banter. Going to miss him." A pupil at the school, speaking with her mum's
permission, said Harvey was "one of the sweetest souls and he lit up every room." She continued: "I will never forget him and all the funny comments he would make. He was
loved by so many and will be really missed." Former England cricket captain Michael Vaughan also took to X to pay tribute to the tragic teen, writing: "RIP Harvey Willgoose ...
Can't quite believe what has happened at a Sheffield school..x." A teenager who said he knew the 15-year-old left a bunch of flowers outside the school. The 17-year-old, who
studies at a local college, heard the news through friends and said the boy who died was a fan of Sheffield United. He said: "I'm a bit upset to be honest, it came as such a shock.
He seemed quite a happy guy and a nice guy to be around." Floral tributes, candles and balloons have been laid on a wall outside the school in memory of Harvey, a devoted Sheffield
United fan. A note which was left with a bunch of flowers calls the boy the “life of the party” with a “bubbly personality”. _GET ALL THE LATEST AND BREAKING SHEFFIELD NEWS STRAIGHT TO YOUR

student who came to stand outside the school to pay tribute to Harvey said it was “such a shock” to hear what had happened. The 17-year-old said: “He was such a lovely lad, he was cheeky,
but was lovely. He would make your day better hearing him down that hallway. You didn’t have to personally know him to be upset. “Teachers loved him, students loved him, everyone loved him.
I’ve been at the school for seven years now and nothing like this has ever, ever happened.” The teenager described the moment the “lockdown alarm” went off, the doors were locked and the
blinds were closed by teachers, which he said was “crazy”. Police vehicles and an ambulance remain parked outside the school while crime scene officers work inside the building. South
Yorkshire Police confirmed a 15-year-old has been arrested on suspicion of murder following the incident, which saw the school placed on lockdown for the second time in a week. Sir Keir

heart goes out to the family and loved ones of the boy, the staff and students at the school and the entire community of Sheffield. “They are grieving the needless loss of a young life and
the nation mourns with them. “Our schools should be places of safety and learning, not violence and fear. My Government is absolutely committed to tackling knife crime so young people are
safe on our streets and in our schools. “Tonight a young boy should be returning to the love and safety of his family. “We stand and work together against the devastating consequences of
knife crime, so no more families know this tragic loss.” Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson said she was “devastated” after hearing the news of the fatal stabbing in Sheffield. In a
statement on X, Ms Phillipson wrote: “My heart goes out to his family, friends and the entire school community at this distressing time. “We are in contact with the school and council to
