In 1967 junior school master was arrested in men’s toilets. My father came home & told Mum ‘that Mr— has been caught importuning’.
Head mistress announced in assembly that Mr— had left because he is er..ill’.
I shouted out ‘yes, he’s caught importuning’.
Staff muffled laughter.— Chrissie Burgess (@chrissieburgess) October 25, 2020

A former student lived in the school for several weeks. He went to some classes, worked on the set for the school play, and slept behind the stage. He carried an old student ID. He was living in the US illegally. When he got caught, he got deported.

SHOCKING.

Remember finding one of my teachers passed out drunk when I was in 6th form. Locked his room and went to get another teacher I could trust to help him. One kid petrol bombed a teachers car on the last day, teacher was not in the car btw.

Middle school, teacher ended up jailed for being a pedo. It was back in the 70s, why nobody thought it odd he only took the boys camping or to his apt for overnights…in high school, girl I knew married the guidance counselor. What’s a 25 year age diff when you’re 16? Lurve.

Not my school but… headmaster had affair with woman living above fish and chip shop. Punched her when relationship soured. She smashed a window in his marital home and ended up in court. News of the World covered case where affair became public; boys called him Coddy thereafter

We had two. First was the gym mistress having a ‘relationship’ with one of the boys and in my next school someone was killed by a javellin. Horrendous experience.
