A FORMER teacher at an exclusive Sydney boy’s school has been jailed for at least two years for sexually abusing young students more than two decades ago.
In the NSW District Court today, Judge Colin Charteris set a maximum of four-and-a-half years in sentencing Craig Treloar.
The 50-year-old had pleaded guilty to three counts of indecent assault and one of inciting a boy to an act of indecency.
He also admitted two other sex offences and to possessing child pornography found on his computer after his arrest at his Hornsby home in Sydney’s north in February last year.
The sex offences related to four boys, aged 11 to 13, who attended Knox Grammar School, and took place in 1986 and 1987.
The judge accepted that Treloar committed no other offences after the school’s headmaster confronted him in 1987 about showing boys pornographic videos.
Treloar had told the judge he had expected to be sacked but was only stopped from teaching for six months before resuming his job up until his arrest.
