A supply teacher has been banned for life after sending explicit messages to a group he thought was a nine-year-old child online.
Supply Teacher Exposed by Paedophile Hunters
Miguel Pastor, who taught Year 3 at St Dominic Savio Primary School in Berkshire, was caught on camera by a paedophile hunting group in 2019. The group livestreamed their confrontation as Pastor walked to work, grilling him about messaging minors.
Police arrived soon after and arrested Pastor. He was interviewed and released on bail while investigations continued.
Disturbing Chats Revealed in Investigation
The Teaching Regulation Agency found Pastor had sent sexually explicit messages via the KIK app to someone posing as a nine-year-old, called “Individual A.”
- Pastor asked if the fake child had kissed anyone.
- He described graphic sexual acts.
- He even explained masturbation after the child said they didn’t know what it was.
“At no point did Mr Pastor appear concerned about communicating with a 9-year-old from his messaging, which quickly progressed into a sexually explicit conversation.” – Investigation Panel
Pastor later claimed he thought he was chatting with an adult pretending to be a kid, wanting to unmask online imposters.
Teacher Struck Off for Life with No Return
The panel slammed Pastor’s actions as a “significant breach of safeguarding responsibilities.” He’s now banned from teaching anywhere in England, with no chance to regain his licence.
Pastor has 28 days to appeal to the High Court — but for now, his teaching career is finished.
