Teacher banned after lying about graduating from Cambridge
"Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging. At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story."
"A teacher has been banned from the profession indefinitely after he lied about going to the University of Cambridge and told his school he was five years younger than he was. Nicolas Martin, who was the head of sixth form at St Edwards School in Cheltenham, admitted to lying on his job applications and fabricating documents. Following an investigation by the school, he was also found to have lied about being a magistrate."
Nicolas Martin, head of sixth form at St Edwards School in Cheltenham, admitted to lying on job applications and fabricating documents. He lied about attending the University of Cambridge and about being five years younger than he was. Following a school investigation he was also found to have lied about being a magistrate. Martin qualified as a teacher in 2006 and started working at St Edmund's in September of that year. He successfully applied to be head of sixth form in 2024 and later applied for deputy head in 2025. Discrepancies led to a referral to the teaching regulation agency. A professional conduct panel heard that Mr Martin said his date of birth was 1987 in his application.
