Sarah Flooks Missing in London

12/01/07 - THE family of Sarah Flooks have been told a woman's body found in Wanstead Park last night is that of the teacher who went missing in March.

Brother Tim Flooks, who is abroad, told the Recorder he had been telephoned by his mother last night with the news.

Speaking to the Recorder, Mr Flooks, who lives in Somerset, said his family was devastated and finding it hard to take it all in.

He said his mother had been told it was definitely the body of Sarah, missing since March last year.

POLICE hunting for missing teacher Sarah Flooks have found a body in Wanstead Park, just half a mile from her home.

The grim discovery was made at around 5.30pm yesterday (Thursday) in thick undergrowth 50ft away from a main path in a section of the park called Ornamental Waters. The area has been cordoned off.

Detectives at the scene are refusing to comment on the link with Sarah, 50, who vanished from her home in Wanstead Park Avenue, Wanstead in March last year.

One man, out for a jog in the park this morning, said: "It's upsetting if a body has been found. There are police all down Wanstead Park Avenue too. I've never seen anything like it."

Another dog walker in the park said: "It's very unusual to see police here, I thought it was a police exercise. It's weird how no one could have seen something like a body until now, although it is a woody area. It'd be a shame if it was Sarah Flooks."

Missing teacher's family in TV plea Mar 11 2006

The family of a missing teacher have made TV appeals and searched her neighbourhood in an attempt to find new information.

Sarah Flooks, 50, has not been seen since she left her home in Wanstead, east London, to travel to work at nearby Monega Primary School in Forest Gate on March 2.

Her brother Tim Flooks and sister Sally Childs have come up from Bridgwater, Somerset, and recorded appeals for ITV and BBC in the parks near Sarah's house. They have also been supporting the missing teacher's partner John Mouzouros.

"We are trying to get some more publicity," said Mr Flooks. "We are just desperate to see our sister.

"It's better than sitting around in Somerset. I don't know what else we can do. Last weekend I felt so guilty for not coming to London."

Mr Flooks said he had heard his sister had parked her car just a few hundred yards from her house that morning.

Ms Flooks disappeared on the day of an Ofsted inspection but her brother dismissed that as unlikely to be the reason.

"She was very level headed and didn't show any signs of stress," he said. "My other theory is it is foul play."

Ms Flooks is white and was wearing a three-quarter-length black coat and jeans when she left home.

She has distinctive shoulder-length red hair, is about 6ft tall and wears glasses.

Frustration over search for missing teacher

Missing: Sarah Flooks 

FEARS are growing for the safety of missing teacher Sarah Flooks with police admitting three weeks after her disappearance there is nothing to suggest that she is alive and well.

But her boyfriend of 30 years, John Mouzouros, says he is losing patience with police who, he says, "could be doing more" to help find her.

Miss Flooks left her home in Wanstead Park Avenue, Wanstead, at 7am on the morning of Thursday, March 2. But she did not arrive at work that day and police are dumbfounded as to her whereabouts.

Last Thursday, police revisited Aldersbrook Road to try to jog the memory of passers-by who might have seen Miss Flooks two weeks previously.

But the appeal ended without success and now they appear to have hit a brick wall.

Speaking to the Guardian last Thursday, Det Ch Insp Phil Jones said: "We have searched Wanstead Park, the route to school, the school itself and her home but have found absolutely nothing at all to give us a clue as to what has happened to her or whether she is alive and well.

"We are concerned because the longer someone is missing the more likely it is that something is seriously wrong. There has been nothing to show us that she is alive and well."

However DCI Jones also said there was no evidence so far to suggest foul play.

"Maybe it's just my frustration but I think they could be doing more."

A frustrated Mr Mouzouros said: "I am pestering the police to check CCTV. There are lots of CCTV cameras near Manor Park station but they just keep saying there is lots to go through. Maybe it's just my frustration but I think they could be doing more."

Police said they were working as quickly as they could. A spokeswoman said: "We are in the process of looking at CCTV but there is lots and lots of footage to go through and it is a long process."

Monega Primary School in Manor Park, where Miss Flooks works, was visited by Ofsted inspectors on the day of her disappearance, which initially raised fears she may have panicked and decided against going to work.

Originally police believed Miss Flooks' blue Ford Ka had been parked in nearby Northumberland Avenue since the evening before her disappearance, but now they say it was not there on the Wednesday night and was moved there, possibly by Miss Flooks herself, on the Thursday morning.

Witnesses claimed to have seen Miss Flooks walking along Aldersbrook Road on the Thursday morning and also possibly close to Manor Park station, although this has not been confirmed by police.

Tell us you are safe, family plea to Sarah
31 March 2006 

Appeal: Sarah Flooks' brother Tim, centre and sister Sue Jones with Det Chief Insp Phil Jones 

THE FAMILY of missing a teacher pleaded with her to get in contact yesterday ( Thursday), exactly four weeks after she disappeared.

Sarah Flooks' brother, Tim Flooks and and sister Sue Jones, travelled from Somerset, to appear alongside head of the investigation Det Chief Insp Phil Jones, at a press conference held at Ilford Police Station, High Road, Ilford. 

Apart from a sighting on the morning she disappeared, walking with her head down along Aldersbrook Road, Wanstead, Ms Flooks has not been seen since she went missing on her way to face an Ofsted inspection, at a nursery school based at Monega Primary, Forest Gate.

Mrs Jones said: "Sarah, please if you're around or anyone looking after her please call the contact information helpline. Sarah is 6ft tall, she normally walks tall. She is a redhead. How can anyone miss such a distinctive woman?"

She mentioned a postcard received 10 days before her sister's disappearance, which referred to a city break in Portsmouth they enjoyed together in February, on which Mrs Jones said her sister wrote: "Hope we will be able to do similar things soon," and "can't wait for the next one."

Photographs of a blue military-style jacket, green cardigan and a pair of black shoes similar to those detectives believe Sarah was wearing when she left her Wanstead Park Avenue home, were displayed.

Mr Flooks said their elderly mother was "doing very well considering." But he said: "She was very upset on Sunday morning, when all the Mother's Day cards came. We were all hoping something would come from Sarah. 

"She has either had a complete breakdown, which to me would seem amazing because she's been gone so long, or something not so nice has happened. Unless she has got some sugar daddy somewhere. Good on her if she has."

Mr Jones said: "Anyone who saw Sarah on that morning of the second of March after she left Wanstead Park Avenue, or, secondly, anyone who knows where she might be or anyone who is caring for her, please contact us."
