Anjorin was a pupil at Bancroft’s private school in Woodford Green attended also by Nottingham attack victim Grace O’Malley-Kumar.

Daniel’s family described the victim as a “wonderful child” who was “well loved” and “hard-working,” saying his death “leaves a gaping wound in the family”.

The family further lamented to Sky News that, “No family should have to go through what we are experiencing today,” they said. “Any family will understand it’s an absolute tragedy.”

Anjorin’s school flag is flying at half-mast following the incident in Hainault.

Bancroft’s said Daniel had been a pupil there since age seven and they were “devastated by the heartbreaking news.

“He was a true scholar, demonstrating commendable dedication to his academic pursuits. His positive nature and gentle character will leave a lasting impact on us,” the school said.

Officers have arrested the man who perpetrated the attack after four persons suffered non-threatening injuries even as police ruled out terrorism from the attack.

Metropolitan Police chief, Sir Mark Rowley said one of the officers nearly lost her hand while apprehending the suspect.

Officers were called at 7 am, with dramatic footage showing police later tasering and arresting the man with the sword.

Police said a 33-year-old man was hit when the suspect began his rampage by crashing a van into a house on Laing Close. The man was then attacked and suffered a wound to his neck.

According to the police, a 35-year-old man also suffered injuries to his arm when he was attacked inside a nearby property before the suspect went on to attack Daniel.

Met chief Sir Mark said officers were “on the ground in 12 minutes” and that “some of the first contacts led to officers being very severely injured”.

He said the two persons who were hospitalised suffered “horrifically serious injuries”.
