Article plan.

I have decided that my article is going to be based on a shooter much like the events in Norway that I studied. However the shooter will be in a school, much like seen before but this will be large scale and widely reported, this will therefore mean there would be a competition for the best and most eye catching story between most tabloids.
Introduction:

• Will highlight the background information of the location of the school and the perpetrators of the shooting. These are likely to be a gang or group of boys from a surrounding area. 
• It will then give a brief description of what happened, giving some information and shocking facts but not completely giving away the story. Therefore making the audience continue. The story will then continue onto the next page with the full story.

Body of article:

• The main body of the article will go into the details of the attack, the full account of the story and step by step accounts of the events.
• It will also cover quotes and interviews from teachers, pupils, families of the victims and from members of the local police and Scotland Yard.
• It will also have details of what is being done following the attacks and how the community is dealing with the grief etc.
• There will then be a feature on the shooters, their backgrounds, their upbringings and families. The public usually like to know every detail about them so this will be included.
• There will then be information on the victims and stories about them, with comments from their classmates, friends and teachers.
• There will be quotes enlarged in places across the pages as to draw in the reader and make them read what that quite is referring to.
• Included will be references and comparisons to previous events like this such as Columbine etc.

Conclusion:

• Discuss what is now being done at the site of the school and how the families are dealing with their losses.
• Probably include information for a planned funeral service and what mourners can do for the lost lives.

In general the article will be set out in a simple format, with an equal text to image ration. It will also contain more facts than opinion and will have informative diagrams and map to give the audience further information.
