Concerns about Weston primary school teacher Nigel Leat had been raised by a colleague two years before he was arrested.

The fifty-one year old was jailed indefinitely yesterday for abusing young girls in his classroom, and filming his attacks.

Leat was spoken to in 2008 about being too tactile with the girls he taught at Hillside First School, but no further action was taken and North Somerset Council was not informed of the worries.
