A Sydney teacher accused of child grooming has been released on bail.

A shocking news broke out today as a teacher at Sydney's prestigious Knox Grammar School was dismissed from his position after being charged with online grooming of a teenager. The accused, William Gulson, was once a student at the same school and had been a teacher there for over three years.

The 27-year-old appeared in court today after facing arrest by the police in Wahroonga yesterday afternoon. When questioned by reporters about his plea, Gulson remained tight-lipped and simply said, "No comment at this stage, thank you."

The investigation into Gulson's alleged actions began earlier this month after a concerned witness reported that the teacher had been grooming a 15-year-old online. The police have claimed to have evidence from Gulson's phone that shows disturbing exchanges with the victim, including one where he asks, "Do you find it hot you're the same age as some of my students?" Another exchange mentions a witness who confronted Gulson, to which he responded, "Sorry dude, I feel super conflicted."

In light of these allegations, the school has taken swift action and terminated Gulson's employment. In an email sent to parents, the school stated, "the teacher concerned was immediately removed from the school and his employment was terminated." They also assured parents that there is no evidence of any other individuals being at risk and that the alleged behavior was confined to the online environment.

As a condition of his bail, Gulson has been prohibited from using the internet, dating apps, and social media. He is also not allowed to interact with anyone under the age of 18 or go near Knox Grammar School. The accused will have to face court again in two weeks.
