They were at it for most of the working day
A married head teacher was caught romping for four hours while chaos broke out in the school.
CCTV showed Adam Price, 40, stripping off before having sex with a female colleague while several fights were breaking out and staff were being attacked in his school.
The secret affair was exposed when anonymous letters were sent to the school.
The notes questioned the behaviour of Price and the other staff member, identified only as Person B, a disciplinary panel was told.
Price was suspended and immediately resigned.
And this week he has seen an attempt to keep his identity a secret thrown out.
Price was executive headteacher at Northern House School Academy Trust in Wolverhampton.
After dodging a teaching ban he will be allowed to continue in his new job as a senior education consultant.
Duncan Tilley, who chaired the Teaching Regulation Agency hearing in Coventry, revealed one of the letters questioned what the two had been doing during the day in Price’s office.
He said: “A review of CCTV footage for January 27, 2020 revealed that Mr Price and Person B had been engaging in sexual activities.”
Tilley added: “Mr Price admitted that he and Person B were together in his office for much of the working day — approximately 3hrs 50mins.
"The panel heard that on the same day there had been three assaults on staff and four fights between pupils.”
He went on: “The panel noted Mr Price’s insight into his misconduct. He expressed remorse that appeared to the panel to be genuine.
“The devastating impact that his conduct had had on him and his family led the panel to conclude that the risk of repetition was low."
