A former school governor who was allegedly found naked with a headmaster has insisted they were merely talking about maths.

Keely Huxtable [the governor], 33, has been accused of being in a compromising position with Richard Tattersfield [the headmaster], 45, when he should have been at Dame Elizabeth Cadbury Technology College in Birmingham.

The married head has now been suspended after his wife allegedly caught him sprinting from his bedroom in his boxer shorts with the naked Mrs Huxtable, who is the school’s chair of governors, in his bed.

She said the couple were fully clothed and ‘working’. According to her, ‘The school had been found to be weak around humanities and maths and we had to re-write the school’s management plan, that’s what we were doing.’

The alleged affair came to light after Mrs Tattersfield claimed she found the pair together in early December last year.
