A teacher at a more than £30,000 a year boarding school has been struck off after repeatedly declaring his love to a pupil.
Benjamin Phelps, 31, was banned from teaching indefinitely after a disciplinary panel found he committed serious misconduct by his relationship with a student at St Bede’s School, East Sussex, while working as a deputy boarding housemaster, tutor and performing arts technician at the senior school for students aged 13 to 18.
