Strange things happen - a UK teacher could be struck off for running around naked in front of his stunned pupils.
David Bradley, 55, who was awarded an MBE for services to young people, streaked across a field in full view of students aged 12 and 13 during a school camping trip.
The Teaching Agency has found Bradley guilty of unacceptable professional conduct.
Panel chairman John Pemberton told him he had "failed to maintain the appropriate boundaries... between pupils and teachers".
Bradley was in charge of 11 youngsters when he ran naked from the barn where the group were camping.
He told the hearing in Coventry: "The lads streaked for a joke and said 'come on, sir, have a go'.
"At the time I realised it was inappropriate."
The panel will decide next month whether to strike him off.
Married Bradley, of Hale Barns, Greater Manchester, was suspended from North Cestrian Grammar School in nearby Altrincham after the trip to Dumfriesshire in 2011, and has since retired.
