Mr Wright started working for the Cardinal Newman Catholic School which is based in Brighton and Hove, West Sussex, in 2005
An autistic teacher has been awarded a staggering £850,000 in a discrimination case after school bosses sacked him for repeatedly making complaints.
Mr Wright started working for the Cardinal Newman Catholic School in Brighton and Hove, East Sussex, in 2005. His name was listed with a black cross next to it which indicated there were 'concerns' about his performance, and Mr Wright described feeling 'targeted'. In June, Mr Wright was asked to meet with the chair of governors after Mr Kilmartin said the teacher 'had to leave' and that he 'could not work with him anymore'.
In a witness statement, the teacher said: 'I was devastated by the suspension as despite my complaints I loved my job.'I had become fixated on the issue and therefore pursued it tenaciously, which relates to my Autism.'
