A WOMAN has died at a primary school with psychologists now "supporting pupils and staff" after the tragedy.
Paramedics battled in vain to save the woman after being called to May Bank Infants School in Staffordshire.
Emergency crews found the woman in a critical condition and immediately began administering advanced life support.
But there was nothing they could do and she was pronounced dead at the scene in Newcastle-under-Lyme.
An air ambulance had landed on Wolstanton Marsh as part of the emergency services response after the alarm was raised just after 4.30pm on Friday, April 12.

Staffordshire County Council is supporting the school with "education psychologists".
Councillor Jonathan Price, cabinet member for education, said: “We were sorry to hear about the death of a visitor to the school and our sympathies are with their family.
"This was clearly upsetting for the staff involved and our education psychologists are assisting the school.”
A West Midlands Ambulance Service spokesman said: "We were called to a medical emergency at an address on Basford Park Road.
"An ambulance arrived on the scene in two minutes and was followed shortly afterwards by a second ambulance, a paramedic officer, and the Midlands air ambulance from Cosford.
"On arrival, crews found a woman in a critical condition and immediately began administering advanced life support.
"Sadly, despite everyone’s best efforts, she could not be saved and was confirmed dead at the scene."
