Fears have been raised that children with additional needs may have been abused by more than one teacher at their school.
Linda McCall, 61, was found guilty in July 2021 of physically and emotionally abusing five children between the ages of five and seven, in 2016 and 2017. The five youngsters are all autistic and non-verbal.
McCall, who worked in a school in the Scottish Borders, was sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid work for the abuse.
