Independent schools. A hive of wretched scum and paedophilia.
I was working in the IT department of a semi well-known private school in Surrey. It modelled itself on Eton, redbrick, high percentage of oxbridge candidates etc. This was an all boy's school up to year 11, but the sixth form was mixed.

There were several "houses" on campus where the boarders lived, and in the top floor there was a housemaster, responsible for the inmates inside.

One of my projects was to install an internet filter/proxy server and monitor web usage for anything untoward amongst the students. Due to my horrendous incompetence I also ran the webfilter on the staff, and found that one of the boy's housemasters had paid subscriptions to several pornographic websites.

Schoolboy porn, to be precise.

He left the next day.

All the staff concluded that I was probably responsible for his dismissal, as the IT manager was even more clueless than myself, and I was treated with a thinly-veiled yet subtle mixture of fear and hatred after that. Lovely.

A friend of mine was a teacher in an American high school

She spotted the gym teacher renting cheerleader porn from the local video store. I guess it's nice when your job is also your hobby...

I also like the story of the teacher who brought a memory stick full of kiddie porn to school

... and then dropped it in the corridor.

What worries me is that my first thought was "I don't want people that stupid teaching my children!"

Sounds almost identical to my school,
the only difference being that the housemaster in question was accused of actually abusing the children and pre-empted any upcoming requests to leave by cunningly gassing himself.

Does "cunningly gassed" mean that the woman farted while he was rugmunching her?

It's a far more prosaic way to go than a car and a hosepipe in the garage, certainly.
