A DEPUTY head at the first school attended by Prince George and Princess Charlotte is facing jail for child sexual exploitation and the distribution of indecent images.
Matthew Smith, 34, admitted using the encrypted app Telegram to receive and share sexual images and films of children over the last four years.
The Oxford and Cambridge-educated teacher was appointed as deputy head of pastoral care at Thomas's prep school in Battersea in September this year, after a five-year stint teaching in Nepal.
In a message to parents yesterday, headteacher Ben Thomas said Smith was arrested on Sunday by the National Crime Agency (NCA).
