Teacher banned for life after sexually-charged relationship with female pupil, 17

A HISTORY teacher at Stratford-upon-Avon Grammar School for Girls who bought sexy satin nightwear for a teenage pupil, invited her to his home, shared a bed with her, and sent her a series of sex charged text messages has been permanently banned from the country’s classrooms.

The ban has been imposed by Education Secretary Michael Gove on Paul Brayford, 43, following a Teaching Agency disciplinary panel finding that he was guilty of unacceptable professional conduct whilst employed at the school during 2010 and 2011.

The panel found that Brayford engaged in an inappropriate, sexually motivated relationship with a girl named as Student A, who was 17 at the time.
