- Male teacher was playing videos on his phone while students were doing dictation, and was unaware images were being shared to screen, online posts claim
A male teacher in Hong Kong has resigned after being caught watching a pornographic video in class and inadvertently exposing his students to indecent images on a screen, the girls’ school involved has confirmed.
Leung Shek Chee College in Kwun Tong also revealed on Friday that it had reported the incident to the Education Bureau and a police community relations officer.
The government-subsidised secondary school said in a statement that it had received a report last Friday that the teacher had been found watching adult videos during class, with the images accidentally projected onto an electronic screen and seen by students.
The school said it suspended the teacher on Monday. He admitted his behaviour to the principal and tendered his resignation with immediate effect the same day, the school said, giving the teacher’s surname as Chiu.
It said it had provided counselling and other support to the students and told their parents about the incident.
