David Ernest Keith MacGregor remained a Victorian Education Department employee for seven years despite being convicted of two counts of indecent assault, an ABC Investigation can reveal.
MacGregor was a classroom teacher, athletics and soccer coach and guitar teacher at Beaumaris Primary between January 1968 and December 1976, a period which has brought him to the attention of the board of inquiry.
In response to questions from ABC Investigations, a Victorian Education Department spokesperson said: “We deeply regret David MacGregor remained a department employee after he was convicted, and have introduced significant reforms to ensure the safety and wellbeing of children in schools since this time.”
