She asked a woman running the acting job to corroborate her story, which included that the work was voluntary and any fee she earned would be paid to charity.<\/p>\n
But the job, which involved her acting as a nurse on behalf of a primary health organisation for a training video for rural nurses, was actually paid.<\/p>\n
At a board of trustees<\/a> meeting later that month, Ikiua claimed again that the role was voluntary and she was helping out a friend.<\/p>\n She reiterated that she had been sick and said she had remained seated during the work.<\/p>\n Ikiua told the board she was a \u201clittle confused\u201d about why she was called to a meeting.<\/p>\n She repeated her explanation at another board meeting the next month.<\/p>\n A third meeting followed, and, at this one, the board terminated her employment<\/a>.<\/p>\n According to a recent Teachers\u2019 Disciplinary Tribunal decision, after that meeting, Ikiua \u201cpromptly\u201d deleted four learning websites containing students\u2019 learning resources and teaching materials.<\/p>\n The websites were the school\u2019s intellectual property.<\/p>\n While they were recovered, at a cost to the school, students were unable to access the material when nearing their end-of-year assessments.<\/p>\n
