A 33-year-old female educator from Western Australia is confronting serious criminal charges following allegations of maintaining an inappropriate sexual relationship with a student. The teacher, employed at an educational institution south of Perth, is accused of engaging in persistent sexual misconduct with an underage pupil between 2024 and 2025.
Law enforcement authorities have filed multiple charges against the educator, including two counts of sexually penetrating a child aged between 13 and 16 years. Additional charges encompass possession of child exploitation materials and engaging in persistent sexual conduct with a minor under the age of 16.
