Teacher who quit job over racy online pics 'barred from workplace Christmas party'

A teacher who has resigned after OnlyFans photos were circulated among pupils says she has been barred from the staff Christmas party, despite still being employed by the school.

Kirsty Buchan, 33, is due to leave her position at Bannerman High School in Glasgow imminently after an outcry from parents - but says she had no choice but to launch the side hustle that got her in hot water.

She claims she was forced to choose a porn career as the school refused to pay her wages while she cared for her sick son.

Parents complained about her to education chiefs at Glasgow City Council and a probe was launched, but she resigned before disciplinary procedures began at the school.

Just weeks before her employment at the school ends, Buchan has taken to social media to claim she was sent a voicemail telling her to stay away from the event at a restaurant in Glasgow city this week.

She put pictures, text messages and a copy of the phone message on her Facebook page, and has condemned former colleagues she believes have turned their backs on her, the Daily Record reports.

Posting her outrage, she said she intends to turn up at the do regardless, saying anyone who doesn't like it should stay home.

The voicemail she claims is from her former boss states: "I'm just phoning to let you know that you won't be able to come to the science faculty night out on Thursday the 22nd of December.

"You no longer work with us at Bannerman and the events of the last few weeks mean that a significant number of people in the faculty feel very uncomfortable about you attending.

"I know you have paid for this but we will refund your money in full. Just to be clear - don't come along on Thursday. Thanks."

Buchan later posted on Facebook the text exchanges she had with her ex-manager.

She states: "It's not really yours or anyone's decision to make. Do you know what, I will be going. I'm still employed until the 4th of January and I won't be bullied or intimidated by you or anyone else talking behind my back like little children.

"If anyone has a problem then they shouldn't attend. I have worked there longer than the people who are complaining. See you Thursday."

Another post states: "When you're asked not to attend the Christmas night out because some people are uncomfortable and it's a 'Bannerman' night out and I no longer work there, same as another couple of people who are going.

"This is the people influencing your children, bullies and narrow minded idiots. Good riddance."

In response, one school pupil tells the teacher: "I hope you turn up to that work night out looking better than every single person there. Just need to keep reminding yourself that you're the one that's making a good wage while they're stuck working in that horrible place."

Miss Buchan responds: "Thank you, I'll be getting dolled up on Thursday and I'll be sitting waiting on them all arriving xx."

Disciplinary procedures had already been instigated by Glasgow City Council after a flood of complaints from parents - but she decided herself to quit her job.

A Glasgow City Council spokeswoman said: "This person has a sick line until 4 January and has tendered her resignation."

Earlier this month the Mirror reported on Buchan's claims that she had been flooded with messages of support from her pupils.
