A CANON Slade teacher arrested on suspicion of inciting sexual activity with a child has been rebailed.

The man was due to answer bail on September 24, but has been bailed again while police continue their investigation.

The teacher was suspended by the school on June 4, and will answer bail again in a few weeks time on a date not yet known.

His arrest marked the third police investigation into the sexual behaviour of teachers at the Church of England school in the past three years.
