Dismissed deputy head launches legal fight

Just because you're not convicted doesn't mean you're not guilty

I am aware of a teacher who had the LEA 'move him on' every time he was accused of indencent assault. The basic premise was 'if you don't work in our LEA we won't put the accusations on your record'....

After about 16 years teaching he finally ran out of luck and was convicted of child sex offences. However, 8 other girls were willing to testify against him but he pleaded guilty as part of a deal so they wouldn't testify.

If the originally LEA had some balls he would have been convicted on day 1 and thrown out of the teaching profession. As a result he has destroyed countless lives because the Education system would rather sweep it under the carpet than deal with reality...
