A teacher who had sex with one of his pupils the day after she finished school has been banned from the profession forever.
Richard Murphy, who was a religious education (RE) teacher at a Bristol school, invited the girl to his house and had sex with her, a Teaching Regulation Agency (TRA) panel found.
The teenager, known as Pupil A, also claimed they had previously had “sexual activity” in the school and he sent her “explicit pictures of himself in the staff bathrooms”.
The TRA found the 35-year-old guilty of unacceptable professional conduct and banned him from teaching.
