The deputy head teacher of an independent school in Ealing has been charged this Tuesday (8 December) with offences relating to indecent images of children.

36-year-old Peter William Allott, who taught at St. Benedict’s School, was arrested on Monday by officers from the National Crime Agency and Metropolitan Police Service.

He was subsequently charged with offences of possessing, showing and making indecent images of children of category A and 2 offences of possession of extreme pornography. He has been remanded in police custody until his next hearing at Ealing Magistrates on 9 December 2015.

The National Crime Agency say they are working in partnership with local child protection agencies to ensure wider child safeguarding. It is not believed at this stage that any of the charges involve any former or current pupil at the school.
