Teacher had sex with sixth-former and said of other pupil, 'I hope she dies of brain haemorrhage'

A teacher has been banned from the profession after having sex with a pupil. Dan Boulton also told a class that bisexual people are "just greedy" and said to a staff member he hoped a student would die of a brain haemorrhage.

A panel of the Teaching Regulation Agency (TRA) heard Mr Boulton started working at Brine Leas School in Nantwich, Cheshire, in 2003. As reported by Cheshire Live, the 56-year-old engaged in a sexual relationship with the sixth form student between March and December 2015 - revealed when an anonymous call was made to the school.

In 2018, he made the comment about bisexual people during a PSHE lesson on the topic of sexuality. The panel heard LGBT students were present.
