A teacher who told a pupil 'you're so thick it's a good job you're pretty' and kissed and cuddled another has been banned from the profession
The following year, he held the hand of a girl known as Pupil C during a walk and kissed her on the lips.
Mr Richardson also kissed and cuddled her when she got upset at his home - and admitted that he had given her a house key.But during a police interview, he stated: "There was never a sexual thing, more of a friendship, like I love ya, let me help you sort of thing." He also told police, alerted after a complaint to school, that he had told Pupil C that they could get married in the future.
The TRA panel found his behaviour was sexually motivated and that he had failed to maintain a professional pupil-teacher relationship, that he had shown no remorse and that he had little insight into the impact of his behaviour. Mr Richardson had indicated he had no intention of returning to the profession but he was prohibited from teaching with a minimum review period of 10 years.
