Petworth Boys School bombing by Ju88

Can anyone help me with the German raider which hit Petworth Boys School on the 29th September 1942.

I've got everything I need from the schools perspective but all I have is that it was a lone Ju 88, painted black with a red swastika on the tail, flying low on a course to take it directly over Petworth House. When the bombs were released, they just missed the house, hit the trees in the grounds, one of which then ricocheted into the school which completely destroyed it.

I know nothing else about the aircraft but am after as much as I can get, or even a pointer in the right direction as to where to look.

Can anyone help?

Cheers,

N
