Noticed this post about this article and thought it's a good debate-

The only problem I see is that she had exploited her position as a teacher and had a relationship with a pupil that was incompatible with this, and to me that is a matter for her employers and the pupil concerned. The report does not say what the offence was. Apart from the fact that she was a teacher I am not aware of any law against having an age gap in a relationship. What was the criminal offence?
