Judge rejects appeal by Deptford Green School science teacher Robert Haye against his indefinite ban over homophobic comments.
A classroom ban on a Christian school teacher who condemned the "homosexual lifestyle" in front of pupils has been upheld in the High Court.
A judge has rejected an appeal by Deptford Green School science teacher Robert Haye against his indefinite ban.
Mr Haye told a Year 11 class of students aged 15-16 the way homosexual people lived was "disgusting" and a sin, according to the Bible.
The 43-year-old also told Year 9 pupils that "anyone who worships on Sunday is basically worshipping the devil".
Mr Haye and his family belong to the Seventh-day Adventist Church, which observes Saturday as the Sabbath.
