I was dismayed to read of the case of Ugochukwu Okorie in last week's telegraph.

This story serves as a further justification for regulation of the private tuition industry. It is unacceptable that tutors such as Okorie are able to gain access to children. The advice of DC John Knox, quoted in the report should be heeded by all parents. However, we must remember that the Disclosure scheme is not a guarantee of suitability and parents must be vigilant at all times to protect their children.
