A 14-year-old girl who experienced “bullying behaviour” died by suicide, a coroner has ruled.
Mia Janin was found dead at her family home in northwest London on 12 March 2021 one day after asking her parents about moving school.
The year 10 pupil had experienced “bullying behaviour”, the coroner said, but did not say that bullying led to her death.
The coroner said the Jewish Free School (JFS) she had attended brought in systematic changes after her death.
They acknowledged she had received hostile messages to a TikTok she had posted, but added she was never diagnosed with mental illness nor did she present signs she was thinking of suicide.
Mariano Janin, her father, said he believed his daughter was cyber-bullied by other pupils at the school.
“Horrible messages” were said to be circulating in a Snapchat group created by boys at her school, an inquest previously heard.
