South London teaching assistant guilty of child sexual offences

Charlie Territt, 31, from South Bermondsey, was formerly employed as a Higher Level Teaching Assistant at Streatham Wells Primary School.

He pleaded guilty to four offences at Inner London Crown Court:

Causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity

Causing a child to watch a sexual act

Sexual communication with a child

Making indecent photographs of children

The allegations related to online conversations with a child in which Territt sent a video of a sexual act, London Now reports.

He initially denied the offences at a plea hearing held last April, claiming he didn’t know the person he was communicating with was a child.

Territt was set to face trial last month but changed his pleas to guilty.

He will be sentenced in April.
