Probably coming in a bit late here and at the risk of doing this subject to death but this is something close to my heart, having been involved in helping a friend expose a violent paedophile teacher at a local school. The extent to which institutions(clearly relevant currently) will go to cover up allegations of this type of activity has to be experienced to be believed. We were in turn ignored ,vilified, blamed and then threatened by an Executive officer of the Local Authority and others - all to cover up evidence which was in plain sight (not even hidden). No one wanted to know not even the local MP or the Board of Governors all the while the paedophile teacher plied its sordid trade at the school in question. Fortunately I do not take kindly to threats and finally after 6 attempts to get the Police involved I had to have a very "interesting" "discussion" with senior Police officers which eventually resulted in the paedophile getting 3 years. But it took 6 years to do it! Quite why the Authorities considered this acceptable remains a mystery. As a teenager I used to live near where JS mother lived and often saw him in his Roller with "company". Blimey there is a telly interview which shows him saying that God would forgive him for his dalliances with the young ladies. Makes my blood boil! Rant over.
Good for you! well done mate ..
Both me and my Sister met weird teachers. We both briefly went to same sex schools, I remember her telling me about a teacher (at Highclare School, Sutton Coldfield) who would tell one of the girls to come and sit with him at his desk at the front of the class, he would covertly (behind the desk) give the girl something they called a 'horse bite' she said .. apparently that meant nipping the top of the girl in question's leg (like a crab claw) .... the girls didn't make a fuss about it and just laughed it off at the time
.. it makes you wonder how much further he might have been going ?..
At my school (Wylde Green College, Sutton Coldfield), a male teacher took a shine to me .. nothing weird about that I suppose but I remember once being in a classroom on my own with him as home time was just about to happen when he came out with (in a serious tone of voice) "You like me, don't you?" .. even as a ten year old who had no idea what a pedo was I thought the question was a bit weird .. "Yes Sir, but not when you tell me off" ... "No, that's not what I meant" was his reply .. I got out of that classroom quick sharpish.
At my next school, our janitor, Jock, went to prison for sexually assaulting his Grandaughter .. he lived on site (John Taylor High School, Barton Under Needwood), afterwards his wife had to continue working there, often in the tuck shop .. us lot, being stupid little bastards used to shout "Jock the ripper!" in earshot of her .. I've felt bad about doing that ever since
.. that poor woman .. Frankie Boyle brought that all back to me with his joke "When I was at school, sex education was a muttered warning about the janitor."
