Teacher (27) in jail for sex offenses with students

The rumors had been doing the rounds for a while. A 27-year-old geography and maths teacher would not only have a relationship with a sixth grade student, but also with two other girls, the youngest barely 14. The man from Bredene himself went to the police, his lawyer confirms Bert Bleyaert, lawyer: “He turned himself in to the Blankenberge police on Wednesday morning and made a statement. I will not go into the content of it for the time being. But he realizes that these are serious facts.”

The teacher has been active at Sint-Jozef Sint-Pieter school for six years and enjoyed a good reputation. The school was aware of the rumours, but it is difficult to suspend or suspend someone, says the director.

The school is now awaiting further investigation by the police and the judiciary. The man has been arrested by the investigating judge and is in jail. He will appear in court on Tuesday.
