A teacher at a Mississauga high school has been charged with sexual exploitation after a young person was allegedly approached and asked to take part in sexual relations on a number of occasions.

Peel Regional Police aren’t saying which high school the teacher works at, nor are they releasing information on whether the alleged victim was a student at the high school in question.

Police did say that none of the alleged interactions took place on school property.

The investigation is continuing and police want to speak with anyone else who may have information.
