Kieran Harker, an IT teacher, has been indefinitely banned from teaching for serious misconduct involving inappropriate behavior towards eight schoolgirls over 14 months at Newmarket Academy. A panel determined he fell significantly short of expected professional standards. Evidence from three pupils, one of whom described inappropriate touching during class, contributed to the ruling. The prohibition order is subject to review after two years, although the misconduct was deemed serious enough for an immediate ban and no future access to the teaching profession.
