Chemistry Teacher Struck Off After Sexual Assault Conviction

Boyd Sigerson, a former chemistry teacher at Oban High School, has been removed from the teachers register by the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS).

The 42-year-old was convicted of sexually assaulting an 18-year-old woman in a shop. The GTCS made the decision to strike him off following a recent procedural hearing.

This decision comes after Sigerson's conviction for the sexual assault. The GTCS has a responsibility to protect the public and ensure that those who are registered to teach are fit to do so.

The GTCS has a strict code of conduct that all teachers must adhere to. Sexual assault is a serious breach of this code, and the decision to strike Sigerson off the register reflects the gravity of his actions.
