Look ma, no teacher
ANI reports that a teacher was sacked by her school in Kent because she posed topless for Cosmopolitan. The report says that she had been hired "after a previous male teacher left over allegations he downloaded adult porn on school computers."
While I can understand there being an issue if the porn the chap downloaded was on school computers the kids also used, I can't see why, per se, either surfing porn or posing topless should disqualify anyone from being a teacher (as long as they don't do it in class). We're all humans -- no chimps read my blogs, contrary to onetime rumours -- and, consequently, have human desires and flaws. As long as they don't affect other people, they should be nobody's business.
