Sex abuse PE teacher on remand ahead of sentencing

A sentencing date has been fixed for a former PE teacher who groomed young people with "calculated precision".

Bronwen James, 30, was found guilty of the sexual abuse of a 16-year-old boy while employed at Bitterne Park School in Southampton. She also had admitted to sexual offences against two teenage girls, one of whom went to Hardenhuish School in Chippenham, Wiltshire.

Senior crown prosecutor Bethany Adams previously said the former teacher "manipulated her victims with calculated precision" while the NCPCC said she had "exploited" a "position of trust".

James appeared at Winchester Crown Court earlier and was remanded in custody ahead of a sentencing date of 15 January at the same court.
