    Abuse teacher jailed indefinitely

    14 June 2011


    An independent serious case review has been commissioned to establish if authorities could have acted sooner to prevent Nigel Leat sexually assaulting the pupils in his care, the youngest of which was six-years-old, over the course of five years. Leat, of Bloomfield Road, Bristol, had previously admitted the abuse of five girls and pleaded guilty to 36 offences, including the attempted rape of a child and carrying out sexual assaults on children. The 51-year-old was given an indeterminate sentence and will serve at least eight-and-a-half years for the abuse which happened at Hillside First School in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset.

    ‘Cunning’ teacher jailed indefinitely for child sex abuse at Somerset school

    14 June 2011


    Teacher Nigel Leat has been described as ‘clever, cunning and insidious’ by a judge, while sentencing him to an indefinite jail term for sexually abusing primary school girls at Hillside First School in Weston-super-Mare. Leat, 51, of Bloomfield Road, Bristol, filmed himself abusing five girls over the course of five years at the Somerset school. Bristol Crown Court heard how Leat would shower his ‘favourite pupils’ with gifts and invite them back for one-on-one reading sessions in the school staffroom. Videos played to the court, with Leat visible in most of them, showed him encouraging children to perform sex acts ...

    Nigel Leat school 'failed on every level' to prevent his sexual abuse of pupils

    26 January 2012


    A school "failed on every level" to prevent a teacher from sexually abusing pupils in his classroom despite concerns about his behaviour being raised for 14 years, a serious case review has concluded. Nigel Leat was jailed indefinitely last year for abusing children he taught, often when other pupils were present, and sometimes filming his attacks. A review of the case published on Thursday found that staff at Hillside first school in Worle, Somerset, had raised concerns about Leat's behaviour 30 times. He was seen touching, cuddling and even kissing pupils and every year picked out a "star" pupil he ...

    School 'failed on every level' to prevent paedophile teacher Nigel Leat abusing pupils

    26 January 2012

    Leat, 51, was seen taking pictures of children on his phone and stripping down to his underpants with pupils. Fellow teachers found explicit images on his school camera and watched him share 'adult' jokes with pupils as young as six. A total of 30 inappropriate incidents were witnessed by staff at Hillside First School in Worle, Somerset, but only 11 of these were reported to headteacher Chris Hood and none were passed on to the local education authority. Leat received just one verbal warning about his behaviour, leaving him free to abuse children as young as six between 1996 and ...

    ‘Predatory paedophile’ Nigel Leat who sexually abused pupils recalled to prison


    upload_2021-3-24_8-28-2.png

    A primary school teacher who filmed himself sexually abusing his pupils has been recalled to prison after breaching his licence conditions.

    Described as a “predatory paedophile”, Nigel Leat captured on camera the attacks he carried out on five young girls over the course of five years at Hillside First School in Weston-super-Mare.

    Leat, who is now in his 60s and is also known by the surname Russell, was jailed indefinitely in 2011 after admitting 36 offences including attempted rape of a child and sexual assault.

    He was only released from prison in November last year and a source told the PA news agency he had been recalled to prison last week for breaching his licence conditions.

    In making its decision last year, the Parole Board said Leat was “suitable for release”.

    The panel was told he was not an “imminent” risk in the community and all the witnesses who gave evidence – his probation officer, prison psychologist and prison offender manager – recommended that release on licence “would be safe at this point”.

    One of Leat’s victims said: “The fact that he has been recalled after just four months of being out of prison speaks volumes to me.

    “I was horrified at the fact he was released at the end of last year in the first place – and the Parole Board were made aware of all of our fears.

    “Now it is evident they are completely justified.
    “If he hasn’t committed another crime then he must have done something that made his probation officer extremely concerned for the public’s safety.

    “It goes without saying, I am glad he hasn’t committed another crime, however the horrendous impact of this man’s crimes has been never ending for us.

    “Just when you start to believe you won’t think about him every day another intrusive reminder occurs, and it is all brought back up again – leaving it back fresh in my mind. It feels calculating from him almost.

    “Although he’s not going to let us move on.”

    The mother of one of Leat’s other victims said: “This whole saga has put a huge emotional strain on my daughter’s mental health.

    “First the parole decision to release Leat – at a time that we did not feel was long enough for him to be rehabilitated, and now this.

    “It really brings into question the decision by the Parole Board to release him when just a few months later it’s decided he poses a risk to the public.

    “You don’t get recalled to prison for going down to the shop to buy flowers so I really wonder what has gone on for him to be back inside.
    “I just feel for all the victims really – it is messing with their mental health.

    “The only positive is that this time I will be able to submit a victim statement so I can explain fully the position my daughter is in now.”

    Leat used to identify “star pupils” and shower them with gifts before abusing them in one-to-one reading sessions at the school.

    The father-of-two would then molest girls as young as six as they practised their reading aloud in class and get them to perform sex acts on him at the same time.

    Leat could be heard in the films referring to the girls as “sweetie pie” and “darling” and asking them how much they loved him.

    When he was arrested by police, officers found more than 30,000 indecent photographs and over 700 movies in his possession.

    A damning report showed that the primary school where he worked had catastrophically failed to protect the children in his care.

    School bosses failed over 14 years to act on 30 warnings about his sexual behaviour with pupils, but his conduct was never investigated.

    He had abused children in the school’s computer room, resource room, staff room and even during lessons with other pupils present.

    Leat also regularly filmed the pupils’ harrowing ordeals using a camera provided by the school, storing hundreds of films on more than 20 memory sticks labelled with his victims’ names.
