A FORMER Redditch headteacher who watched a woman getting changed in a cubicle has been barred from teaching indefinitely.

A professional conduct panel had recommended an indefinite prohibition order against David Doubtfire.

The former head of Walkwood Middle School in Redditch, was convicted of voyeurism and placed on the sex offenders register last June.

The 51-year-old of Westholme Road, Bidford-on-Avon, peered at a 26-year-old woman underneath the door of a cubicle at a leisure centre in Evesham on July 17 2013.

He was headteacher at Walkwood when the charges were made but resigned from the post.

In a statement posted on the school's website at the time, the school said the charges against Mr Doubtfire did not relate to his former employment or any children at the school.
