Is it pointless in locking these teachers up?
Is it pointless in locking these teachers up? the amount of students who run away with their teacher in the UK and the courts lock the teachers up and what message does it send to students? if students keep doing it, is it time to change the law or blame the students as well not only the teachers?
What message does it send to the students if they keep doing it you can call them predators and all the bad names in the world but it's just pointless in locking these teachers up if it doesn't do any good and more and more students keep doing it

No doubt a few of these students have matured to the point of making sound emotional judgements, but there will always be the others who a haven't and so the law is there to protect these students.
The law has to be universally applied, we can't have one set of rules and laws for one while having another set of rules and laws for the other, it wouldn't work.

Depends on the case.
The case of jeremy Forrest was made such big news and his sentence of 5 years is far too long. The witch hunt against him is disgusting.

The main thing is they are banned from teaching or any job that involves working with people under 18 for life, like Jeremy Forrest.

Hi Tony
Teachers and others do have a "duty of care" to minors. It is a perversion to breech this so the law should be upheld.
Best wishes.

If the teachers are having sex with minors it can be called rape even if consensual.
