A CONVICTED pedophile who was repeatedly allowed to resign from his teaching posts despite being accused of molesting boys across Australia insists he isn’t sexually attracted to children.

GREGORY Robert Knight previously taught in schools in South Australia, Queensland and the Northern Territory and attracted allegations of abuse in all three states.

He was convicted of child sex offences on two separate occasions.

But Knight staunchly rejected the suggestion he was attracted to boys while being questioned at the child sex abuse royal commission.

He did so despite agreeing he was a convicted pedophile.
