Jessica Baker, 15, one of about 50 students onboard, was killed in the crash
The driver of a school bus which crashed on a motorway died from natural causes, a coroner's office has said. Stephen Shrimpton, 40, died when the coach he was driving crashed on the northbound M53 in Wirral, Merseyside, on September 29 last year as he was taking children to West Kirby and Calday Grange grammar schools.
No more details on his cause of death were released. When his inquest was opened in October, senior coroner for Liverpool and Wirral Andre Rebello said CCTV footage showed Mr Shrimpton slump to his left while driving the coach, which at the same time left the carriageway and went up an embankment before ending up on its side.
An inquest for Jessica will be held at a later date, with a review hearing scheduled for July, the coroner's office spokeswoman said. The inquest opening heard the teenager, from Chester, was partially ejected from the vehicle and suffered instantaneous fatal head injuries.
