Headteacher issues apology following allegations of affair with pupil's mother

A headteacher has issued an emotional apology after allegations arose that he was having an affair with a pupil's mother.

Aled Rees would often leave Ysgol Teilo Sant in Llandeilo during the school day without telling staff. He would also spend a lot of time talking to a child's mother at the school gates while frequently taking personal calls in his office.

During a fitness to practise hearing, it was alleged that he told a pregnant teacher "that will teach you to open your legs" - or words to that effect - after she complained of her classroom being moved, which he denied. However, he admitted to five other professional conduct allegations against him, including an extramarital relationship with a pupil's mother, Wales Online reports.
