<TEXT>The headteacher of the Worle primary school - where paedophile teacher Nigel Leat filmed himself sexually assaulting pupils as young as six - has been sacked.

Chris Hood's been dismissed from Hillside First School - following a disciplinary inquiry which saw him suspended back in January.

North Somerset Council and Police have stressed that Mr Hood has not been accused of any criminal involvement - and that the issues related to his management of the siutation.

Fifty-two year old Leat was jailed indefinitely in June.
