OK I think I understand, so as a teacher one should never enter a sexual relationship with a pupil, whatever their age (I stayed at school until I was 19). I suppose that's a given. Were they not involved professionally then a 16 year old boy and a 26 year old partner is OK or at least won't get you on the sex offenders register?

/// No two cases are identical. ///
That is exactly the point, these three involved 3 male teachers who were jailed and the case I posted on was a female teacher who did not get jailed.
/// Unless you really want us to agree that women get an easier time in
court? ///
In this case she did, would you care to give a few examples where female teachers have been jailed for having sex with their 16 year old pupils?

AOG, it must be lovely to live in a black and white world.
If you would read what I have written, instead of what you want it to say, you will see my point is that there are many different factors to these cases. We (the public) don't hear half of it due to the sensitive nature of the "victims" and the need to protect them from publicity.

This male teacher got a suspended prison sentence:
http://
He was 45, the girl 15.
Each case is judged on its own facts; no two cases are the same.
