[Teachers could be asked to swear an oath
against inappropriate relationships with pupils.
A motion due to be considered by Flintshire
council could see teachers and school staff
pledge in front of a manager not to form
intimate relationships with students.
It follows the court case of
Gwynedd headteacher Neil Foden,
who was jailed for 17 years in July after
being found guilty of sexually
abusing four girls.

But education union NASUWT said
introducing the oath, which will be
discussed at a full council meeting
in Mold on Tuesday,
would show a shocking
contempt for teachers.]

It's illegal. Surely a separate oath is a waste of time.

Yes, that's what they are saying.

Are they also taking an oath not to steal from them?
