Ontario College of Teachers v. Markson, 2001 ONOCT 14

Teacher's certificate revoked for professional misconduct involving boundary violations and grooming behaviour with a student.

The Discipline Committee convened to determine the penalty for a teacher previously found guilty of professional misconduct for boundary violations with a student.

The College presented expert evidence indicating the teacher's behaviour constituted grooming for a sexual purpose and a severe boundary violation.

The member's expert characterized the violation as mild.

The Committee ordered the immediate revocation of the member's Certificate of Qualification, with no application for reinstatement permitted for at least one year, and recommended a psychiatric assessment prior to any such application.
