He has been barred from teaching after a pupil revealed some shocking details! 🤢
Joel Walker – who used to teach at Egerton Rothesay School in Berkhamsted – told Pupil A he had a “dream of a sexual nature involving her” and, while on an inflatable assault course, took hold of the pupil’s clothing and caused her to fall on top of him, a report said.
The school suspended Mr Walker as soon as the allegations were made in April 2019, and he left the school once the investigation ended. Pupil A added: “Mr Walker started becoming more secretive, and on several occasions, invited me to his classroom to talk during lunch.“On one occasion, whilst we were in his classroom alone, Mr Walker took a ruler from his desk drawer and said words to the effect of ‘do you know how big it is?’.
Pupil A said Mr Walker used words to the effect of “your arse looks incredible” on “prize day” when she was wearing a dress.“We began to race through the course, and while inside could not be seen by anyone outside,” Pupil A’s statement reads. A report by Alan Meyrick, Teaching Regulation Agency chief executive, reads: “In all circumstances, Mr Walker had shown a reckless disregard for Pupil A’s wellbeing and his own duties and responsibilities as a professional and role model in relation to his conduct concerning Pupil A and Pupil B.
