Devon school head banned after he replaced pupil's exam

Mr Wright officially left the school in August 2018 but was referred to the TRA in November of the same year. It said Mr Wright was employed as headteacher in 2003 before Ofsted received complaints in 2018, which led to an investigation. "That same day, a pupil disclosed to a member of staff that Mr Wright had swapped their work with another child for the purposes of external Statutory Attainment Tests ," the panel document said.The panel found the conduct of Mr Wright fell significantly short of the standards expected of the profession.
