'As a result of the NCA's investigation, Mr Smith was charged yesterday with two offences of child sexual abuse relating to the making and distribution of indecent images of children. 'After learning of the charges, we notified him yesterday of the immediate termination of his employment. 'Mr Smith appeared before Westminster Magistrates' Court this afternoon, where he was charged with and pleaded guilty to five charges of making and distributing indecent images of children and the sexual exploitation of children outside the UK.' The school added: 'Our focus right now is on our pupils, parents and colleagues. "Form Teachers, Form Tutors and Heads of Year in particular will place their best efforts into supporting your children.' School principals Tobyn Thomas and Ben Thomas told parents in a statement: "I do not for a minute underestimate the shocking and deeply concerning nature of this news.
