Head is jailed for images of 16-yr-old girl
A TEENAGER’S dream of going to a top university was shattered after she was sexually exploited by a primary school head.
The girl’s mother told a court her daughter lost trust in teachers and had mood swings after swapping intimate images with John Stubbins, 44.
Father-of-two Stubbins, head of a County Durham primary school, was said to have developed a “selfdestructive infatuation” with the girl, then 16.
The mother wept as she told Durham crown court her daughter had been an A-grade student but her grades had suffered as a result of stress.
Stubbins, of Gateshead, admitted having 16 indecent images of the teen and was jailed for two years and two months.
