A 15-year-old boy has died after falling unwell at a secondary school.
The teenager was at the school in Hawkwood Lane near Botany Bay Lane, Chislehurst, south East London around 1.30pm on Tuesday when the incident happened.
Police and two ambulance crews, along with a paramedic, an incident response officer and the air ambulance rushed to the scene.
The boy was taken to hospital, but sadly was pronounced dead shortly after, News Shopper reported.
The death is currently treated as unexpected but not suspicious.
It is understood he was a student at Coopers secondary which is the only school in Hawkwood Lane but this is yet to be confirmed by emergency services.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police said they had been called, along with London Ambulance service, to a school, where the student was suffering a medical emergency.
It confirmed the boy's death and that 'his family and the school are being supported by officers'.
The Met Police and London Ambulance service have been approached for comment.
