Teenager, 16, jumped from bridge over fears of school punishment after she was caught downing vodka shots



A teenager downed shots of vodka at school then jumped to her death from a motorway bridge because she was 'worried about getting into trouble', .


Wendy Maguire, 16, left the school grounds after being sent to the headteachers office when staff reported smelling alcohol on her breath.

Two hours after her parents were called into the school in Ilford, Wendy, who had consumed twice the legal drink drive limit, jumped off a bridge and died.

Recording a verdict of suicide, coroner Chinyere Inyama said: 'Wendy was not the type of person who would do things on impulse. She was the kind of person who thought things through.
'My view is that Wendy, thinking she was going to be in trouble, in a short space of time thought things through and decided she was going to jump off the bridge.'


‘Bright and bubbly’ Wendy downed shots before classes started after noticing the smell of alcohol on her breath, staff sent the 'tipsy' teenager to the headteachers office at Palmer Catholic Academy in Ilford.

Wendy, who was predicted A and B GCSE grades, stormed out as Deputy head Paul Egan was on the phone to her parents asking them to pick her up.
But two hours after her parents were called in, she had jumped from a footbridge in Leytonstone.
