A former Jersey teacher has been found guilty of sexually abusing two teenage girls.

66 year old Ian David Priestly has been convicted of six counts of indecent assault and four counts of procuring acts of gross indecency during the 1990s and 2000s following a three day trial.

A jury of seven men and five women were unanimous in their verdict.

Priestly used to work at Les Quennevais School and Le Rocquier before moving into the finance industry.

Neither of the two victims were his former pupils.

He's been remanded in custody and will be sentenced in the Royal Court on 14th February.
