Why don't these schools just front up when it's clear they have screwed up? Instead of sneaky lies and half-truths a much better response would be:
"Oh crap. Look, our owners are tight bastards who won't provide the funding for background criminal checks even though we know from stories on Khmer 440 how often schools in Cambodia - a well known haven for pedofiles, convicted criminals, nut jobs and ne'erdowells - end up employing these guys. I'll go back to my boss and see what I can do. This sort of shit shouldn't happen. We must at least pretend to give a rat's arse about the safety of our kids."

Maybe Michael Billington could look up "How to Lie to the Press 101" in the school library, oh wait a minute…..
My posts are just jokes, maybe they're rude, offensive, and politically incorrect. They're not my opinion, viewpoint, idea, or judgement, but they're just fucking jokes so lighten up.
I don't know enough about HOE to comment. We have a general policy of only hiring teachers who are currently registered in their home country, which would be impossible if they had a criminal record. When I returned to teaching in Australia, I had to undergo a CRI, despite more than 20 years of unblemished previous service.
The only exceptions we make are, in some cases, for Secondary History and Geography teachers, due to a dearth of registered applicants in those areas. I have advocated for a CRI on all unregistered applicants, but the owner tends to do so on an ad hoc basis, depending on initial impressions.
We haven't had a problem during my time in management. We did fire a teacher a year ago, partly because he was attempting to socialise with male students outside of school hours, but there was no hint of sexual impropriety. The biggest problem we face is that many new staff are overawed by the wealthy backgrounds of our students and some look to use this for their personal advantage.

The Daily asked me yesterday if they could use that image of Erdmann holding up a sign. I said yes, of course.
I'm disappointed they used that one and not the one of Erdmann holding the sign saying 'Fuck you, Cambodia Daily'.

Wouldn't there potentially be liability issues as well?

Eric Erdmann was released from Pekin Federal Correctional Institution yesterday. No word yet on whether Home of English has already offered to re-hire him.

Erdmann has moved to Wisconsin, registered with the Wisconsin Sex Offender Registry, and grown a creepy pedophile beard.

Should have moved to Florida.

I see the US government is preparing for the demographic changes over the next decades by starting to class people as Hispanic and Non-Hispanic.
None but ourselves can free our mind.
