Guy becoming teacher - used to be teaching assistant and was accused...

The attitude in this thread is appauling, schools have literally millions to lose in these situations and MANY MANY schools try to cover things up, similar will happen in many industries. If a school's in an area where the council need to close 2 out of 5 schools, you can bet the school has a MASSIVE vested interest in something like that not going public.

Likewise schools/councils can play it down or try and cover it up due to the potential for compensation and being sued.

Not being investigated by the police(no one here knows if it was, or wasn't) wouldn't mean anything, nor would no conviction, if there wasn't enough proof but 30 cops involved all believed the kids and all believed this guy was a sicko but with no evidence or one kid lying to help their best friend who really was hurt.

People slip through the cracks, I don't know the story, it hasn't been explained, we don't even know if the guy is 45 trying to get into teaching and this happened 20 years ago, or if it happened 5 years ago, two VERY different times in how these types of situations were handled.

The best advice would be, its not up to the OP to do anything, he never said he wanted to, but if the girlfriend, who I'm under the impression some of her family were involved in the situation. Letting them know and deciding if they want to step up when before they didn't want to.

The attitude of many families will be to hush it up aswell rather than have their daughters face plastered over The Sun in a big peado bust case and she publically becomes known as that girl who got raped and crapped on.

Its VERY unlikely for some ***** girl who made a false accusation 5 or 25 years ago to go after the guy again many years later, however if they really were raped or abused badly by this guy, they may, at 15, been too scared to carry through with a complaint but at 30 most certainly don't want this guy to get near more girls.

The sensible option would be for the girlfriend to maybe have a word, if she feels strongly that she believed the people(I could tell you pretty easily with 98% accuracy if someone was making a false accusation or was talking crap, and most people could do the same for people they know, but couldnt' possible for random school X where you don't know anyone) to be telling the truth, to have a word and see what they want to do.

Ruining a guys career would be horrible, but equally as horrible would be letting a peado become a teacher and hurt other people.

Theres no obvious answer or action to take because it will be completely dependant on knowing the people and if you believed them.

Keep this in mind, if your sister had been raped by a teacher, but was absolutely terrified of court, didn't want to go to court, wouldn't go to the police, but the parents got together with the school, the man was fired but no one would prosecute and your 15 year old sister was way to scared to go all the way with the police, but 20 years later she'd want to stop the guy getting near other kids. Some people falsely accuse people, the sheer number of actual peado's getting caught lately, suggests its not that uncommon either, and people getting of on a technicality isn't insignificant.

Just because they where accused does not mean they did anything. False accusations, and they do happen more than most people think. Can and do devastate teachers, even after police find them totally innocent.


No conviction, then you shouldn't be able to block someone from a job. After everything you said, they can still be totally innocent.

It's not just the school that could have reported it to the police, any of the affected parents could have, seems to me that it was just a malicious rumour that got out of hand.
 
He was never prosecuted... based on a bunch of allegations from some school girls you cant go and make a ****fest of this guys life now.

There have been dozens of cases (in fact one last week) where people have just decided to report old paedo teachers and have won.
The case last week was 30 years old I think.
If the OP truly believes this guy really did what he did then you must go the Police and let them sort it out.
How would he feel if in 5 years time he ruins a few more innocent lives?
 
Thank you for being the first person to actually answer what I asked.

Not looking to go to the police, just perhaps let the governors of the old school know what he is planning so they can make that decision.

TBQFH it no longer any of your god damned business. YOu say earlier you are not out on a crusade to wreck someones life, but its obvious you are.

You have no evidence, save the misgivings of some hormonal teenage girls, what do you think will happen if you went to the governors, really ?

Like someone else said, Join the Police, Investigate him properly, build the case, prosecute and then come back, untill then GTFO

Lets assume for a moment the guy is completely innocent. Any such action as outlined above would go on an extended CRB check wouldn't it? So the likelyhood is that any chance of him getting a teaching job would be shot down as no head is going to take the risk with the media as it is nowadays. Guy's career ruined.

Alternatively he may be guilty, in which case such action could protect innocent children from being abused.

So, do we ruin a guy's career to protect the kids, just in case?

That sounds good and is backed up by our legal system that he has not been proven guilty and is innocent until such time that this is proven.

Indeed.

So the likelyhood is that any chance of him getting a teaching job would be shot down as no head is going to take the risk with the media as it is nowadays. Guy's career ruined.

Without doubt.

Alternatively he may be guilty,

Yes, he may. This is unproven but he may be.

in which case such action could protect innocent children from being abused.

If he's guilty guilty then yes it would.

So, do we ruin a guy's career to protect the kids, just in case?

No, that would be a terrible idea.

I'm on your side man. Good post.
 
He was accused?

Well, Good God man, what more proof could you possibly need!

This also.

If only we had a massive organisation of trained investigators who can separate fact from claim in order to establish correct and truthful justice to those who deserve it.

...Oh wait.

If half the crap women gossiped about had any real validity society as we know it would crumble. As a man it is your duty to respond only with 'that's nice dear' or 'oh no'
 
I don't mean to sound rude but you should mind your own business. An accusation like this can ruin someone's life and you have zero proof to support those claims.

Quoted for truth. Not read the rest of the thread.

If it's not directly affected you, or isn't directly affecting you then let it go. Find something else to do with your time other than digging up the past and potentially destroying someone elses life and reputation.
 
Err let me think if a young child/children was actually abused im pretty sure the last thing on earth they will want to do now at the age of 25 or whatever is relive the ordeal again in a court, its probably already scared them for life, no justice is going to fix that.

More importantly nothing was done about this at the time he was accused and that was it.

Have you thought about a better hobby then trying to oust old potential paedophiles from the 80s and 90s? Maybe go after ww2 war criminals? there are plenty of them about still i would think..

WTF. Seriously? Something you have no first hand knowledge in and that is just gossip passed between people and you're thinking of going to his new workplace to try and ruin his chances of being accepted??

Think about what you are saying. The police take allegations like that really seriously and if nothing ever happened they were probable false allegations. The guy may well have ended up leaving the school he was at through the embarassment and people just like YOU. People who never actually had anything to do with the case but jumped to conclusions and drove him out.

If the whole thing was true, don't you think he would be on the sex offenders register by now and NOT be allowed near children again? I've seen young chavvy girls plenty of times shouting PAEDO to randomers in the street for what I can see no good reason. What's to say they can't just do that in school. Then the guy is suspended whilst the school investigates. During that time gossip flies around. People like you cry OMG RUN FOR THE HILLS and the guys reputation is in ruins before he even gets the chance to return to school. Guilty or not his career at that school is ruined so I wouldn't blame him for leaving!
 
I should add that if you do want to start somewhere and find out what the police made of the subject, you are best off going to the station that was involved and ask them what conclusion they made from the previous allegations that thus never amounted to any investigation. If you need definitive answers, they will hold them. Nobody gets accused of anything and nothing gets out into the open.

I doubt the police will release this information. The OP has no reason to know as quite frankly it's non of their business.
 
I fear for people's careers and lives if people like the Op are going round willy nilly with unreliable information about said individuals.
 
Just be careful, an ex-teacher of mine has been sent down for a alleged relationship with a student, most people who know him accept he probably didn't do himself any favours but didn't get into a sexual relationship, he knocked her back, she felt humiliated and went on a revenge campaign, he was cleared of the most serious charges but she still got him sent down for 15 months. Obviously he has been found guilty so it is a lot more likely he did do it, but knowing the girl, there is more than just a shadow of doubt in most peoples mind that she exaggerated the whole thing out of humiliation.
