From Guardian newspaper, Education section, May 2 2006
"Ian Miles
Deputy headteacher, King Edward VI school, Suffolk
In the first school I taught at, we used to have a get together in the staffroom at the end of term. It was a real 70s hippy affair: a few drinks and a bit of a sing song. I'd been indulging in a bit of horseplay with some female colleagues when five of them wrestled me to the ground and took my trousers off. I was pursuing them out of the staffroom in my shirt, tie, pants and socks when I noticed a group of people heading towards me. It was the headteacher, who was showing a group of prospective students around the school with their parents. I don't know who was more embarrassed - them or me. I got a ticking off from the head and thought that was the end of the matter. But inevitably, the story got out to students, and took years to live down."
