Complaint about teacher
PA Hamilton New Zealand’s 10 education boards will approach the Ministers of Education and Justice over the case of a Hamilton man still teaching after a conviction for behaving in an offensive manner. Suppression of the man’s name has prevented the employing authorities from establishing if he is one of their employees. The Hamilton Education Board applied to the Court for fi&ther information, but was told the suppression could not be lifted.
The general manager of the board, Mr Trevor Loomb, and the chairman, Mr Brian Burton, raised the issue at the quarterly meeting of the Education Boards’ Association executive meeting in Wellington on Tuesday. They discussed the board’s not being able to find out if the convicted man was one of its employees — and won the unanimous support of other boards for the association to approach the Minister of Education, Mr Wellington, and the Minister of Justice. Mr McLay.
