A former Bay of Islands College teacher who admitted using his cellphone to film women in a bathroom and teenage girls in a public changing room has had his teaching registration cancelled.
Reagan Clive Hills was sentenced in the Kaikohe District Court in January on four counts, three intentional and one reckless, of making an intimate visual recording.
Hills was a teacher and sports coach at Bay of Islands College, but lost his job when the offending was discovered in August last year and was sentenced to six months' home detention followed by 12 months' post-detention conditions and 200 hours' community work.
In a decision released today, the New Zealand Teachers Disciplinary Tribunal censured Hills and cancelled his licence to teach for serious misconduct.
The tribunal said Hills confirmed the police summary of facts from his sentencing, admitted the charge and accepted that his conduct amounted to serious misconduct.
