Teacher found guilty of professional misconduct for showing inappropriate videos, making inappropriate comments, and failing to supervise students.
The Ontario College of Teachers brought a discipline proceeding against a member for professional misconduct relating to two incidents while acting as an occasional teacher.
The member was alleged to have shown inappropriate music videos to a Grade [XXX] class, made inappropriate comments to students, sent two students outside in the rain as a disciplinary measure, failed to follow a lesson plan, and failed to adequately supervise students.
The Discipline Committee found that the allegations were proven on a balance of probabilities.
The Committee concluded that the member's actions constituted professional misconduct, including verbal abuse, failure to supervise, and disgraceful, dishonourable, or unprofessional conduct.
A penalty hearing was to be scheduled at a later date.
