A public school music teacher is disgraced

A public school music teacher is disgraced

A misconduct panel has imposed an indefinite teaching ban on Dale Wills, a former music teacher at Marlborough College.

It found that Wills, 42, ‘made inappropriate comments and failed to maintain professional boundaries’. He exchanged 7,000 Microsoft Teams messages with two pupils and ‘ingrained himself’ into their lives.

A spokesman for Wills said he lacked sufficient support and guidance in his job.
