Shawnigan Lake School says a teacher facing sex-related charges no longer works for them.
Crown spokesman Neil MacKenzie says Andrew Olson is accused of several offences.
MacKenzie says the alleged incidents happened at or near the Shawnigan Lake area between last December and this March.
The school released the following statement:
We take our duty of care and responsibilities for young people very seriously at our school. Our priority is their welfare and well-being. We became aware of a situation which required one of our faculty members to be placed on leave. That individual is now no longer employed by the school.
This is obviously an upsetting situation for our school community. In the interest of the privacy of all concerned, we will not be making any further comment at this time.
RCMP say their investigation started in late March.
