Student Affair Resigns Teacher

I would say it was a fitting response to the situation. Here is the article:

A female teacher at a prestigious Canterbury school has left under a cloud after declaring an "inappropriate relationship" with a student.


Christ's College principal Simon Leese yesterday confirmed the teacher had resigned after disclosing her relationship with an 18-year-old student.

Approached after a caller told The Press about the incident, Leese issued a statement saying the student's family was aware of the circumstances.

He wrote: "A female junior member of staff disclosed a recent inappropriate relationship with an 18-year-old student and has resigned from the college staff ...

"The college values the former staff member's awareness that this was (a) serious breach of professional behaviour, and her open disclosure. She was a highly valued staff member."

Leese said last night he was unaware whether the woman was still in Christchurch. The Press understands the teacher left two weeks ago and had been at the school for less than two years.

Places at the private secondary school are sought after, with fees of more than $12,000 a year.

School board chairman Peter Wardell said last night he was the only member of the governing body that had been involved in the matter. "It's a staff matter and a pupil matter. I've been informed of the outcome."

Wardell said he was happy with how the issue had been dealt with.

New Zealand School Trustees Association president Lorraine Kerr said these cases were still rare in New Zealand. "In my experience this doesn't happen very often at all. Probably in the years I've been involved in trusteeship, maybe it's happened three times."

Disciplinary action against a staff member was usually an internal matter, Kerr said.


You know, we used to have the 3R's in school. It was slang for Reading, Writing and Arithmatic. I never knew the "'s" was for sex as well. The last statement in the article was a strangely reminesent of the type of attitude that got the Catholic Church in trouble.

I think as more and more disclosure and instant messaging becomes more popular we will see this more and more as people get caught in these situations.
