Two teachers at top school are suspended after kids see live Bangkok sex show


RED HOT: It's wall-to-wall sex in Patpong's sleazy streets

A SCHOOL has suspended two teachers after claims that teenage pupils on a cultural trip to the Far East ended up watching a live sex show in Bangkok.

Horrified parents only found out about the visit to the Thai capital's notorious Patpong red-light district after one girl posted pics from the trip on her Facebook web page.

One snap showed a group of the grammar school youngsters, aged 16 to 18, and the two teachers sitting around a table littered with beer bottles outside a Bangkok bar.

A member of the party is about to puff from a hookah pipe. The contraptions usually contain mint flavoured tobacco, drawn through water for a more mellow taste.

Later in the evening some of the pupils moved on to the city's sleazy red light area, whose streets are lined with bars offering sex shows.

Last night a staff member at Bingley Grammar, in West Yorks - founded in 1529 and one of Brtain's oldest schools - revealed: "It is the talk of the school.

"The teachers, a man and a woman, are fighting for their careers over this because the youngsters were supposed to be in their care.

"They are claiming that the kids did not drink or smoke although that's not what the pupils are saying. But the worst part is that some of them went to the live sex show.

"The kids said it was disgusting, with couples there on stage having sex in a grotty bar. The teachers are claiming it was a mistake and as soon as the action started they left. But that is at odds with what the kids are saying.

"I mean, the Patpong area is not the kind of place where you go by mistake. It's completely in your face and wall-to-wall sex."

A dozen youngsters from the school - whose motto is Passing on the Torches of Learning - have spent a month in Thailand and neighbouring Laos over the summer.

As well as sampling the Far East's culture, they trekked through jungles to remote communities, helping disadvantaged schools with jobs like fixing broken furniture, painting and providing sporting equipment for the students.

But our source added: "I think it will be a while before anyone from the school is visiting Thailand again.

"The allegations have left a very sour taste in the mouth. Some of the parents are absolutely incensed.

"It takes a lot of trust for a parent to pack their child off to the Far East for a month and they don't expect them to be smoking, drinking and witnessing degrading XXX-rated spectacles in bars."

Head teacher Chris Taylor confirmed that the school, with the help of Bradford Council, has launched an inquiry.

He said: "A potential concern has been raised about activities during the trip. We are treating this with extreme seriousness.

"We will take appropriate action at the investigation's conclusion. It is inappropriate to comment further."

why didn't they show them the temples?

the dogcatcher

It was a cultural trip, this would include temples and of course whorehouses.

Completely true

As I was growing up, just about everyone in bkk knew "what Patpong is all about".
I have never been there myself all these years, not allowed to, but we drove through there once or twice during the day many moons ago.
Judging by all the pics farangs have been putting up on the internet, it's enough to know it all for me

That's a funny story! Can just imagine the look on the Julie Andrews type headmistress's face back home.

^ Agree, got to admit that Patpong is hardly a place you end up in by mistake.

jandajoy

So that member has been there before.

baldrick

sex is grotty and disgusting

I suggest many people should not engage in it which will ensure their non-offspring would not to have to see it

Muadib

Those kids are a bit old to still be in grammar school...

F'n parents must have their heads up their arses ... FFS a trip down patpong would have been one of the first things on these kid's minds ... really what did the whinging poms bloody expect

Only problem for the youngsters is that most of the birds down Patpong would likely be older than their bloody mothers

^ Normal age of a 6th former. Leave school at 18 after 'A' levels.

StrontiumDog

Yep, spot on.

The Fresh Prince

That's obviously bull shit.

I bet visiting Patpong will be a big part of his 'inquiry'.

Seank

Totally agree- its is BS.
Patpong has more stalls selling tat than go-gos now. I have never seen couples having sex in a bar, grootty or not.

I have seen this disgusting behaviour -you have to get out more.

Professorfart

I wonder where these kids would have wound up if left to their own devices?

If it had have been me at 16-18 I know where I would have been if let loose in BKK at that age.

Better to have their teachers there keeping an eye on them than having the poor dears sneaking off and winding up at the tourist police booth in Lumpini in nowt but their undies.

meepho

These kids are 16-18, all they have done is spoil it for further trips for other peolpe by saying 'oh it was disgusting' live sex, oh my god.
We have the highest underage pregnancy rate in the euro zone, and the strictest laws on live sex and any sex in euro, WHY?
Jeeezus, i would have loved that experience at that age, and also known not to tell mummy.

I must take it that they must be the only kids not to have sex by 16-18 in the uk.

complete and utter babies.

slackula

Sounds a hell of a lot more fun then my school trips

mooncake

common a 16-18 yrs old boys are more excited about sex than a rabbit.
I know as I have 2 older brothers. They swore they couldn't sleep a wink before a nude art class..lol

^Do you never get bored trolling, Scampy?
