A headteacher has been struck off after she failed to act on concerns over a staff member who was later jailed for abusing pupils.
Angela Paterson ignored 'serious allegations' over Carol Ann White, 40, and her relationship with a schoolboy. Paterson had been in charge of a North Lanarkshire primary school when White targeted the youngster.
White was later arrested following a huge police investigation which revealed she had abused two boys at two different schools. She was convicted of two charges of engaging in sexual activity with the youngsters and possessing indecent photos of a child at Airdrie Sheriff Court between August 2018 and May 2020.
