Emma Pattison, her seven-year-old daughter Lettie and husband George were found dead at their home in the grounds of independent Epsom College in the early hours of Sunday.
A source told the Telegraph that a member of school staff called emergency services on Sunday after hearing gunshots. Surrey Police said it had contact with Mr Pattison last Thursday after he notified officers of a change in address.The force added the firing range at the school did not form part of the crime scene and was not a line of inquiry in the investigation.
