They were stood in front of me kissing and I didn't know what to do so I pretended I didn't see.This teacher is engaged and doesn't seem to talk to my best friend--however, when I caught them both in the cupboard it was the first time I had seen them together for along time. What is going on? I asked my best friend and she said they are in love and can't help it. The teacher wanted to see me; however, I didn't go to see her.What do I do?

Hiya, I think although this is your best friend a teacher is someone you look up to and respect. This teacher is abusing this trust with your friend, as an adult they should know better. I think you need to confide in a parent or another teacher, it may seem though your betraying your friend but it will be best for your friend in the long term. Hope this helps,Xx

My temptation in your shoes would have been to have visited this teacher with a tape recorder on your person. Many mobile phones have this function on them nowadays.
This is quite wrong and needs to be exposed for what it is.

It is double the crime when it is perpetrated by a female teacher because not everyone thinks it is as serious a crime as if a man does it - which is a double standard that needs to be rectified. If you don't report it, you are comitting a crime called, 'Being an accessory after the fact' and can be prosecuted for it. Please report it now. Your friend is an innocent victim and will not get into trouble.

It is illegal for teachers to have relationships with their pupils in the UK. This is a child protection issues as any member of staff within a school is a risk when they are engaged in such behaviour. You must take courage and speak out.

You were right not to go and see the teacher involved, i totally agree with all the other aunts on this it is totally wrong and illegal and it needs to be reported and once you have done that you should be very proud of yourself for doing the right thing.
Take care.xx.

Like yummymummy said you have to report this teacher to either the head teacher, or tell your parents and let them do it. It is one thing to have a crush on a teacher but if they act on it, it is crossing the line and abusing their powers.

I would report the teacher ! It's one thing a student having a crush on a teacher but for the teacher to actually play on that is completely wrong and against the law!
I am training to be a teacher and one thing they teach you is not to get involved with students as you can loose your job or worse!
This needs to be stopped now!
