Brit Schoolteacher Seduction Case

Bernadette Smith
(Stirlingshire, Scotland)

A schoolteacher who narrowly avoided a prison sentence for seducing one of her pupils has told a court she is 'fully co-operating' with social workers after her 'ten days of madness'.

Married Bernadette Smith, 35, escaped a jail sentence after she was convicted of kissing and cuddling 16-year-old schoolboy Gary Ralston at his home in Cowie, Stirlingshire, and at a park in Falkirk.

The mother of three, who was sacked from her position at Bannockburn High School in Stirling over the incident, said she kept a tiny vest top on and did not have sex with the boy when she stayed over at his house in September last year.

She admitted her wrongdoing in February and was sentenced to a two-year supervision order and ordered to sign the sex offenders' register.
