Dudley teacher charged over child sex images
A former headteacher from Dudley has been charged with possessing indecent images of children
Ross Workman, formerly of Stourbridge, is accused of six offences of making an indecent photograph or pseudo-photograph of a child.
He will appear before Dudley magistrates on February 3.
Workman, who previously taught in the borough, was arrested by detectives from the force's Online Child Sexual Exploitation Team on November 3, 2014. He was suspended from his role at Oldswinford CE Primary School at the time and letters were sent home to parents.
West Midlands Police spokesman Deb Edmonds said today: "At this stage of the inquiry there is no evidence of any inappropriate contact between the teacher and pupils at the school. Letters were sent to parents at the school informing them of the investigation."
School chairman of governors, Stan Williams, said at the time of the arrest: "A member of staff has been suspended after being arrested by police.
"We have been advised by police that at this stage of the inquiry there is no evidence of any inappropriate contact between the member of staff and pupils at the school.
"We are working closely with the council and cannot comment further until this legal matter has concluded."
