A British teacher has been removed from the profession after school officials learned she was posting nude content on OnlyFans while working in primary schools.
According to the BBC, regulators say Lyndi Corston, 61, violated professional standards by participating in online adult entertainment under a persona that referenced both her role as a schoolteacher and her status as a grandmother. Corston had been placed in classrooms through an agency at Rye Community Primary School, teaching early-years students on a supply basis.
The Teaching Regulations Agency issued a ruling that Corston’s online activity—though not conducted during school hours—was incompatible with the expectations placed on educators.
Officials emphasized that teachers are public-facing figures and are expected to model appropriate conduct, particularly in an era when online content can surface quickly and circulate widely.
The case began in September 2024 after a colleague reportedly noticed an OnlyFans notification on Corston’s phone. She disclosed that she had an account featuring nudity, said the profile was not under her legal name, and shut it down when concerns were raised. At that point, regulators noted there was no indication students had been exposed to the material.
Months later, the situation escalated. In January 2025, Engage Education, the staffing firm that placed Corston, was informed she had been identified on adult entertainment sites engaging in explicit activity. While investigators acknowledged there was limited first-hand evidence—no images or recordings were submitted—Corston consistently accepted responsibility for her actions and signed a statement agreeing to the findings.
During the disciplinary process, Corston apologized and described her conduct as “unacceptable.” She initially referenced her right to a private life, but later conceded that her choices conflicted with her professional responsibilities.
Regulators also stated that while Corston had an otherwise clean record and did not create content at school, her online presence posed a risk to public trust in the profession.
They added that students could have been “exposed to, or influenced by” the material in a harmful way, even if no direct impact was established.
A spokesperson for the school said administrators took “immediate and appropriate action,” referred the matter to outside agencies, and followed all guidance provided. “We remain committed to maintaining high standards for professional conduct,” the statement added.
Corston has been formally barred from teaching, though the decision allows her to seek a review of the ban in 2028.
