An assistant housemaster at a private school, reported to earn about £51,000 per year, is banned from teaching following allegations involving a female pupil. According to reports, disciplinary action is linked to claims that he failed to maintain professional boundaries and developed an “inappropriate” and overly familiar relationship with a student. The account describes conduct including stroking the pupil’s hair and communicating outside normal circumstances, including sending late-night emails.
The reports say the school dismissed the teacher after concluding that his behaviour breached expected standards of professional conduct. The same coverage states that the ban is imposed following the finding that he did not uphold appropriate boundaries with the student. Specific details of the formal decision, including the authority imposing the ban and the length of the prohibition, are not included in the provided material. The reporting focuses on the nature of the alleged behaviour and the school’s conclusion that it was unacceptable, leading to the removal from teaching.
