A primary school teacher who was sacked for calling colleagues «fat sl**s» and leaving pupils in soiled clothes has had her unfair dismissal claim thrown out in court.

Iqbal Khanem claimed she had been unfairly dismissed from New Christ Church Primary School in Reading, as a result of age discrimination.

But her claim was thrown out at an employment tribunal, after a judge was told the teacher used racist and homophobic language at work and failed to respond to children’s needs.

Miss Khanem was dismissed in 15th May 2019, when at the time she was teaching a year one class of children aged five and six, LBC reports.
