I am not aware of any laws preventing a teacher giving a child a lift home.

yep there are, they r not even allowd now to give one on one tutoring and that stems back even to when i was in school. Afterschool some teachers used to run after hour tutoring for people doing GCSEs and they HAD! to have atleast 2 pupils with them at all times.

Unfortunately there is some truth in this.Some students have been known to make false allegations and some female staff have been victims of sexual assault.

Yeah Maggy, the music teacher at my school was male, and hes still a friend now and we are in contact via facebook. He used to come and find me every break and lunch time and give me his keys which also had his car keys and house keys on them and tell me i had to stay in the music room with friends because i was beaten up in the first year which led to my disability with my back just because i have psoriasis. That man saved my life literally thats how close i was to suicide and im glad i have had a chance to thank him.

This is crazy..............................

Surely if she had given the boy, a haircut and a manicure this could be misconstrued as grooming him?

What next......................?

My father, like many people his age, is 72.

How much longer must we put with this?

Wibble.

Until somebody important gets accused of being a paedophile for something so innocent. or you slap the PC people so much that they realise they're a big joke and it's time to stop.

The person or persons on the committee that thought she had a case to answer should be the targets here. They are clearly unfit for purpose and should be the ones removed following this whole sorry fiasco.

(imho)
