Educator of the Year
Teacher Banned for Classroom Strip
supply teacher was asked to leave a secondary school after removing his shirt in front of a class of 13 and 14-year-old pupils, education authority officials said today.
The incident at Sudbury Upper School in Sudbury, Suffolk, in April was filmed by a pupil on a mobile phone and footage broadcast on internet website YouTube.
Education authority Suffolk County Council said the man was asked to leave the school and the agency which supplied him informed.
"It is not the case that children were put at any risk," said a council spokesman. "But the school felt his behaviour inappropriate."
In the 40-second YouTube footage the teacher is seen to remove his shirt and point to his left bicep - as girls and boys giggle and scream - before getting dressed again.
