Southport killer Axel Rudakubana was the most sinister pupil I’ve ever seen, says his teacher

But his parents thought he was a ‘good boy’ and it was all ‘someone else’s fault’

A headteacher today described the Southport killer as ‘sinister, unpredictable and the most unusual’ pupil she had ever encountered in her career.

Axel Rudakubana was enrolled at The Acorns School, in Ormskirk, Lancashire, aged 13, after being expelled from mainstream education for taking a knife into classes.

Headteacher Joanne Hodson told the public inquiry investigating his crimes that, from his first day, she realised the teenager was ‘very high risk’.
