A HIGH school teacher has appeared briefly in a Perth court today charged with 48 child sex offences.
The 34-year-old Canning Vale woman, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was employed at a metropolitan high school when the abuse was alleged to have happened.
Police issued a statement in September which said they had charged the woman with 12 child sex offences relating to one female student.
The incidents were alleged to have happened between 2015 and this year when the girl was aged between 15 and 17 years old.
During a short hearing in the Perth Magistrate’s Court today, the woman’s lawyer, Mark Andrews, said the woman was now facing an extra 36 charges.
The case was adjourned and the woman’s bail was renewed on a $5000 personal undertaking.
She is also required to comply to several strict conditions, including that she surrender her passport and not contact the alleged victims or be unsupervised around children under 16 years old.
