Civic leaders in Northern Province have called on education authorities to tame male teachers with the habit of taking advantage of female pupils.
The two Kasama based civic leaders made the call following reports that a named teacher at St. Theresa Secondary School was caught red handed having sex with a grade 11 female pupil.
Lusenga Ward councilor Peter Kapambwe and his Lukupa counterpart Thandizani Mbewe say the named teacher has brought shame to the missionary schools which are known for impacting good morals.
They have since called on education authorities to investigate the matter and ensure that they culprit is brought to book.
On 13th June 2017, a Biology teacher at St Therese Girls Secondary School in Kasama was caught red handed having sex with a pupil in a science laboratory.
The grade 11 pupil who hails from Kitwe on the Copperbelt was expelled following her two-paged exculpatory letter dated 14th June 2017 indicating the sexual ordeal.
Sources say that no action has been taken against the teacher who is married alleging that he is still teaching.
