A former teacher has been arrested after a student was allegedly sexually abused at a high school in Sydney's south west.
In April 2019, detectives from the Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad commenced an investigation following reports a 14-year-old boy had been groomed and sexually assaulted by a man known to him.
Following extensive investigations, detectives arrested a 26-year-old man at Campbelltown Police Station just before 11am today (Friday 14 June 2019), where he is assisting police with their inquiries.
The man's employment as a teacher has since been terminated.
Investigations are continuing.
The Child Abuse and Sex Crimes Squad is comprised of detectives who are specially trained to investigate matters against children and adults, including sexual assault, serious physical abuse, and extreme cases of neglect.
