Amardip Boparai, a 28 year old, British Asian teacher, has been handed a jail sentence for two years for having sex with a pupil who had learning problems.
Amardip is known to be the daughter of Birmingham based award-winning Bhangra singer Malkit Singh MBE.
She performed a sex act on the pupil in an art room after sending an x-rated text message.
The pair later had sex in her car and home and on an industrial estate near the school, which cannot be identified. Amardip, from Streetly, West Mids, showered gifts on the teen and let him drive her car even though he did not have a licence. She also took her victim – who cannot be named for legal reasons – to a Birmingham hotel on his birthday, where they stayed all day drinking vodka.
When he began seeing a girl his own age and tried to end the relationship with Boparai, the teacher begged him not to leave her.
She admitted three charges of sexual activity with a child when she appeared at Birmingham Crown Court yesterday.Judge James Burbidge QC jailed her for two years and ordered her to register as a sex offender for 10 years.
He said:
“As a teacher you owed him a duty of care that all teachers must owe to a child”.
“You had sex with him in public places, on an industrial estate and hotels. You provided him with experiences that, as a 16-year-old, meant that he would be attached to you.
