Church school head sacked ageing teachers 'to replace them with busty young women'

Scandal: Reverend William Brooks is accused of sacking ageing teachers in favour of younger ones with more buxom figures

As head of an elite church school, Reverend William Brooks was keen to keep students' attention in class.



So he sacked ageing teachers in favour of younger ones with more buxom figures, investigators claim.



The clergyman bragged repeatedly of his plans to 'replace all the older women with young women with big boobs,' according to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Now the 58-year-old head of the upper-crust St Mark's Episcopal School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is facing demands to reinstate four fired teachers and pay their back-wages - or face legal action.



'You're cute - and cute people go a long way in this school,' he is alleged to have also told a summer camp director - who is male.



The four teachers fired from their posts at the $14,500-a-year private school were aged between 59 and 63. Brooks had plans to get rid of more than 20 others and bring in more shapely replacements, the EEOC claims.

'His actions, far from a mere random incident, are perceived to have malice, motive, preparation and intent to discriminate against older individuals,' the commission concluded.

Lawyers for the 49-year-old school - which boasts of being 'a warm, family-oriented, caring place' and a 'dynamic and happy school where children love learning for its own sake' - say the sacked teachers' claims are false.



'These dismissals were due to legitimate planned workforce reductions and/or documented performance issues,' said school lawyer Suzanne Bogdan.
