She resigned from her position after admitting to the head teacher that she had “slept with” a 16-year-old who had recently sat his GCSEs
A woman teacher has been struck off after claims she had sex with a 16-year-old pupil she seduced with raunchy Facebook photos.
Clare Horton, 33, sent the teenage boy messages on the social networking site while he was on study leave for his GCSE exams.
The teacher included sexy “selfie” pictures of herself in a lacy crop top, little black dress and plunging necklines while pouting on her Facebook pages.
A disciplinary hearing was told she met with the schoolboy for a revision time “rendezvous” before driving him back to her home for sex on the sofa.
The boy known as Pupil A later told police he had sex with design and technology teacher Mrs Horton but didn’t want to press charges because of his “strict religious beliefs”.
Mum-of-two Mrs Horton had worked at Fitzalan High School in Leckwith, Cardiff, for 10 years and was head of year-11 at the time
A Professional Conduct Committee of the General Teaching Council of Wales were given details of her Facebook messages including her variety of personal selfie photos.
She agreed to meet Pupil A before near his home in Cardiff and driving her to her home 20 miles away in Newport.
Mrs Horton was accused of having an afternoon sex session with the teenage boy.
She then dropped him back off at his home before going to pick up her two young children.
The teacher, who was going through a bitter divorce at the time, claimed all she took from him was “the hand of friendship”.
In a statement given to the disciplinary hearing in Cardiff the teacher said she had committed “the ultimate sin”

But Mrs Horton claims she simply chatted to the boy before falling asleep on the sofa for a couple of hours.
She said: “I was in an incredibly emotional state and sexual intercourse was the last thing on my mind. All I took from Pupil A was the hand of friendship.
“Because of what was going on at home, teaching was my only lifeline.
"To be told I was anything other than ugly, fat, useless and worthless was a safety blanket that I foolishly used.
“He was very kind and listened - I was just taking about what was going on with my ex-husband. He made me feel better.”
Police investigated the relationship but the Crown Prosecution Service decided to take no further action.
But the disciplinary hearing ruled Mrs Horton was found to have had an “inappropriate and sexual relationship” with the pupil.
She was given a indefinite prohibition order and told she would have to wait two years before reapplying to teach.
