Knives at the School Gate

Available for over a year

What happens in a small community after a child is stabbed to death? Last month in Fartown, Huddersfield, a 15 year old was killed outside his school. In his community, the youth workers, the police and the families try and make sense of it. Reporter Annabel Deas knows this place well; she spent a year there drawing together all the strands that entwine and trap some British youngsters. Now she goes back to find out what this tragedy means to the local people, and meets those trying hard to make sure this will be the last needless death.
