Three teachers were attacked and four fights broke out among pupils at a school while the headteacher was having sex with a colleague in his office. Adam Price spent almost four hours of one school day "engaging in sexual activities" with the female member of staff.
While he was doing so, three other colleagues were being attacked as violence broke out at the school he was supposed to be in charge of. The affair came to light a month later after two anonymous letters were sent to the school.
Mr Price was suspended, but immediately resigned. Prior to the incident, he was said to have had "an impressive track record in a challenging education sector".
