Woman struck off for Wrexham school staff room sex claim

Lindsay Davies was said to have brought Wrexham's Ysgol Rhosnesni into dispute

A school support worker who told pupils she had sex with a colleague in the staff room has been struck off.

The girls, 13 and 14 at the time, said they felt "shocked and uncomfortable" when support worker Lindsay Davies made the comment.

When an investigation was launched at Ysgol Rhosnesni in Wrexham, Ms Davies denied the conversation.

She told a consultant carrying it out: "I wouldn't discuss it with my mother, let alone 14-year-olds."

Ms Davies claimed the Year 9 girls, identified as pupils A, B, C and D, were troublemakers who liked "creating dramas".

But the youngsters told a fitness to practise hearing they liked her working with them.

The matter came to light when two boys told a teacher they had heard the girls talking about the matter.

Upon interview, the girls said they had met Ms Davies outside the town's Tesco in January or February 2022.

On asking if she had a boyfriend she was then said to have told them she had had sex with a man.

Two of the girls later claimed that, in a science lesson, Ms Davies had said the first time they had sex was in the staff room.

She also showed them a message from the man which read: "Do you want to have a go on me again?"

'Poor judgement'

Davies, who had worked at the school since 2020, was suspended before being sacked last November.

She did not participate in the hearing, and said she was "not going to listen to false allegations".

The committee found the witnesses credible and the allegations of unacceptable professional conduct proved.

Davies was removed from the register and can apply to be reinstated in two years.

The committee said she had shown "poor judgment in speaking to pupils about personal sexual matters."

They added that telling them she had sex in the school staff room "was inappropriate, in poor taste and brought the school into significant disrepute."

"This conduct could have potentially harmed the pupils concerned," they added.
