Nicholas Taylor pleaded guilty to child sex offences at St Albans Crown Court today
Nicholas Taylor, 26, pleaded guilty to nine counts of sexual offences against children while working at a school in south Hertfordshire.
Appearing at St Albans Crown Court, he pleaded guilty to several counts of inciting sexual behaviour with a child, as well as to making and distributing indecent images of children.
Horrified parents at the school were furious that they had been kept in the dark about Taylor’s crimes, revealing they were only notified of the horrific allegations by a group email.
One parent told Express.co.uk: “The parents are furious there was a wall of silence surrounding this whole thing. We finally got an email saying we should contact the police if we had any concerns.
“There was no support or anything. Some of the parents contacted the police and they had no idea what we were talking about.
“The lack of support is shocking – the council are just saying they don’t have the set-up.”
