Section 1
The Appellants, who I shall refer to as “MD” and “SF”, and together as “the Appellants”, appeal against prohibition orders made by the Respondent (“the SSE”), prohibiting them from teaching.
The prohibition order in relation to MD permits MD to apply to set the prohibition order aside after five years (i.e. from 8 March 2029).
The prohibition order in relation to SF permits SF to apply to set the prohibition order aside after two years (i.e. from 8 March 2026).
MD made oral submissions on behalf of both MD and SF. SF confirmed in court that he was happy to adopt MD’s submissions on his behalf.
