A 62-year-old supply teacher has been banned from the classroom after admitting to creating an OnlyFans account under the description “granny schoolteacher” and appearing in explicit videos.
Lyndi Corston was found guilty of “unacceptable professional conduct” and “conduct that may bring the profession into disrepute” by a Teaching Regulations Agency panel. The misconduct occurred while she worked at Rye Community Primary School.
Between January 2023 and January 2025, she made sexually explicit videos, some of which were paywalled and others publicly accessible. She created an OnlyFans account featuring nudity in 2024.
A colleague discovered the account after seeing a push notification from OnlyFans on her phone. Although she initially said the account did not involve sexual acts, she later admitted to participating in explicit videos. She was asked to close the account and signed an enhanced code of conduct, but was later identified on a pornographic website.
The panel noted that she initially expressed no regret, citing a right to a private life, but later apologised. She claimed she believed the videos would remain behind a private paywall, but the panel found she fully consented and was identifiable as a teacher.
Ms Corston has been banned indefinitely, with no right to apply for reinstatement for two years. The panel stated that teachers are expected to set a good example and that her conduct brought public confidence into question.
