15-Year-Old Boy Dies After Medical Emergency at School in Chislehurst

A 15-year-old boy has tragically died after suffering a medical emergency at a school in Chislehurst, southeast London.

The incident occurred at around 1.25pm on Tuesday, May 13, at a school located in Hawkwood Lane, near Botany Bay Lane. Emergency services, including the London Ambulance Service and London’s Air Ambulance, were dispatched immediately.

The teenager was treated at the scene and transported to hospital, but was sadly pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police confirmed:

“On Tuesday, 13 May at 1.25pm police were called by the London Ambulance Service to a school in Bromley, where a 15-year-old boy was suffering a medical emergency.

London’s Air Ambulance transported the boy to hospital where he has sadly now died.

The boy’s death is being treated as unexpected but not suspicious at this time.

His family and the school are being supported by officers.”

While the school has not been officially named by authorities, Coopers School is the only secondary school situated on Hawkwood Lane, and it is understood the boy was a student there. The school has been approached for comment.

A spokesperson for the London Ambulance Service added:

“We were called at 1.20pm yesterday (13 May) to reports of a person unwell in Hawkwood Lane, Chislehurst.

We sent two ambulance crews, a paramedic in a fast response car, and an incident response officer to the scene.

We also dispatched London’s Air Ambulance.

The first paramedic arrived in less than five minutes.

We treated a teenager at the scene and took him to hospital by road as a priority.”

The boy’s death has sent shockwaves through the local community, with support now being provided to the school and his grieving family.
