Girl 'not protected from abusive teacher'

Cambridgeshire County Council 'failed to protect a 15-year-old girl from being sexually abused by her teacher', the Victoria Derbyshire show has learned.

The girl, "Abigail", was abused multiple times a week in the 1990s - in the classroom and at the man's home.

A social worker had previously written to warn the council about the teacher - who cannot be named - but he was allowed to continue teaching.

The council offered its sympathy to the victim.
