Allegations of inappropriate sexual contact with a student have led to the arrest of a teacher at a northeast high school.
The Calgary police child-abuse unit announced Tuesday that a 45-year-old Bishop McNally High School teacher, whose name has not yet been released, will be charged in connection with sexual offences dating back more than a decade.
Police began investigating in January 2017 after a former student at the high school reported that she had an inappropriate sexual relationship with a teacher between 2007 and 2009.
The alleged incidents occurred at several residences in Calgary, as well as at the school, according to a news release from police.
“Despite the age of consent in 2007 being 14, the suspect was in a position of trust and authority over the victim for the duration of alleged offences,” police said in the release.
