A Merseyside teacher has been banned from the classroom for life after he was said to have kissed a student, placed her hand on his genitals, and asked pupils to perform sex acts on him.
Lee Myers, a former ICT teacher, is not permitted to teach anywhere in England after a teacher misconduct panel found his actions while working at the Oldershaw School in Wirral amounted to unacceptable professional conduct and bringing the profession into disrepute, having used his position to exploit a student and engage in conduct of a sexual nature with her.
Mr Myers, 43, was employed at the Wallasey school between 2008 and 2016, having spent six years in a similar position at Halewood Academy. A series of more than two dozen allegations of misconduct were proven against the former teacher during a professional hearing earlier this year.
