A former headteacher has claimed he received a phonecall from an "alarmed" pupil who spotted a PE teacher in a hotel room with a pupil she allegedly had sex with.
David Nicholls revealed that he drove to a Premier Inn in Glasgow to try and find Melissa Tweedie who allegedly had sex with the pupil after prom.
Nicholls, the former head of Gleniffer High School in Paisley, Renfrewshire, turned up to the hotel at around 2.10am on June 8 2017 and was met by six pupils in the foyer.
He claims they told him they were adamant that Tweedie, who was 23 at the time, was in a room with an 18-year-old pupil.
Nicholls finally managed to reach Tweedie, now 27, on the phone who claimed she was at home at the time.
However, the following day Mr Nicholls said the pupil who was in the room admitted that he had slept with Miss Tweedie.
Miss Tweedie is alleged to have partied with pupils at their school prom at SWG3 nightclub in Glasgow before going back with them to a Premier Hotel in June 2017.
She faces being struck off the teaching register by the General Teaching Council for Scotland following an investigation into the allegations.
Giving evidence to the panel today (WED), Mr Nicholls said: "On the evening of the leavers dance I became aware that something was wrong.
"I saw (teachers) Heather Prentice and Lyndsay Cameron.
"They said Miss Tweedie had left with a group of pupils."
"She seemed absolutely fine and compos mentis (at SWG3).
"I later found out from senior staff that they thought she was getting over familiar with a certain senior student."
"Staff members were telling Miss Tweedie that they would get her a lift or a taxi.
"She refused and said she was getting a lift from her flat mate."
He added: "At 1:45am, one of the senior boys phoned me.
