In NSW teachers get sacked for doing nude photo shoots with their partners in the Cleo sealed section.

A Sydney primary school teacher has been sacked for participating in a magazine nude photo shoot with her partner.

[…]

Mrs Tziolas appeared in the sealed section of Cleo magazine with her husband and nine other couples talking about their sex lives.

[…]

“As teachers we’re expected to be somewhat superhuman and not have a private life,” she said.

“It’s denying the fact that teachers are normal. Yes we have sex, yes we enjoy it…”

In Victoria teachers get cautioned by the offensively useless Victorian Institute of Teaching for buying students grog, discussing sex lives and swapping phone numbers.

A TEACHER who helped a student buy a slab of beer and discussed her sexual habits has been allowed to remain in the classroom.

And despite claims the teacher also talked about using marijuana to “wean herself” off painkillers, the price of cocaine and losing her virginity, Victoria’s teaching watchdog has found she deserves a second chance.

The Victorian Institute of Teaching found that Louise Margaret Huntington engaged in “misconduct” by failing to engage in “professional relationships” with her students.

A panel of three teachers found Ms Huntington displayed “professional immaturity” when she swapped phone numbers with a 17-year-old male student from another school in December 2006 and began seeing him outside school hours.

The secondary school teacher — who talked to the student about her lesbian relationships — allowed the teenager to stay the night at her house after driving him to a supermarket to buy beer.

Somewhere in the middle is the right approach.
