Three teenagers killed in a crash last week have been named by police as their school pays tribute to them.

Harry Purcell, 17, Matilda Seccombe, 16 and Frank Wormald, also 16, all died following the two-vehicle collision on the B4035 near Shipston in Warwickshire on Friday (April 21).

A fourth occupant of the Fiesta, a 17-year-old boy, is in a stable condition following surgery.

Three occupants in the Fiat, a woman and two children, all sustained serious injuries and are in a stable condition in hospital.

The teenagers were year 12 students who attended Chipping Campden High School.

The school has written to parents and pupils to confirm the tragic news, which has been seen by the Oxford Mail.

Headteacher John Sanderson said: “There are no words that I can find to express the sense of loss that we feel, both as a community and for Harry’s, Tilly’s, and Frank’s families and close friends.

“Each one of these young people has been part of our extended school family and each loss is felt profoundly.

“In time, I would like to try and find the words to pay tribute to each of the young people we have lost, as each was remarkable and unique, having touched the lives of so many in such profound ways.”

Inspector Michael Huntley from Warwickshire Police’s Serious Collision Investigation Unit said: “Specialist officers are carrying out a detailed investigation to piece together the circumstances of the collision, and we are working with our partner agencies and the local authority.”

Anyone with any information is asked to call Warwickshire Police on 101, quoting incident number 248 of April 21 2023.
