The Ontario College of Teachers held a discipline hearing regarding a member who failed to maintain professional standards and was charged criminally with uttering threats against school staff.
The member had a history of poor performance appraisals, inappropriate classroom behaviour, and unauthorized absences.
After uttering threats to kill a colleague and his family, the member was arrested and subsequently dismissed from his employment.
The Discipline Committee found the member guilty of professional misconduct and ordered the immediate revocation of his Certificate of Qualification and Registration.
