The Thames Valley District School Board has fired one of its teachers involved in a voyeurism case.

Jamie Gardiner, 37, was suspended with pay when he was first charged in March of 2015.

Police started an investigation after allegations that a backpack had been found with a hidden camera in it in a change room at Ashley Oaks Public School.

He was initially charged with two counts of voyeurism, but has since been charged with making child pornography and unlawful possession of child pornography.

Gardiner will be back in court on May 26.
