A priest has been banned from teaching “indefinitely” over allegations he touched pupils inappropriately.
James Wilson, 66, taught at Pennycross Primary School in Plymouth between 1970 and 1985.
Five former pupils gave evidence to an education professional conduct panel which has banned him from teaching in any school or college in England.
He was previously charged with a number of offences but found not guilty at Plymouth Crown Court in September 2010.
Mr Wilson denied the allegations and did not attend the final hearing of a professional conduct panel of the National College for Teaching and Leadership.
