Relationship with Student AAccording to an agreed summary of facts released by the tribunal, Nordstrom engaged in an “inappropriate relationship” with Student A while she was teaching her. “They called Student A’s parents as they felt uncomfortable after they became aware that Student A was still a student,” the summary said. Nordstrom began sending a male student, Student B, inappropriate messages and met him outside school hours. During these times, Nordstrom would discuss personal issues, including her relationship with her partner and show Student D her Tinder profile. “The tribunal has now formally censured April Nordstrom and cancelled her teacher registration so that she can no longer practise as a teacher,” the school said.
