A teacher at a grammar school in south Manchester has been struck off the teaching register after booking a hotel room before having a sex with a former student.
Robert MacCallum, 39, was a PE teacher and head of Year 12 at William Hulme Grammar School in Whalley Range when he first met the pupil, who was attending the school at that time. A professional conduct panel heard that Mr MacCallum and the student, referred to as 'Pupil A' had formed a 'very close' relationship whilst they were both at the school.
There was no suggestion to the panel that any criminal offence was committed.
