LONDON - Woman teachers are subjected to sexual abuse by their students as young as six in Britain, official figures revealed Monday.

Kids across the country have ogled, groped and even threatened to rape staff in growing numbers, the data show.

Hundreds of teachers have been propositioned or ridiculed, and children have even fondled themselves in class to embarrass them, The Sun reported.

The scale of the harassment is uncovered in logs kept by local councils and just released under the Freedom of Information Act. They detail incidents over three years involving both primary and secondary school teachers.

Most culprits were only suspended and in some cases no action was taken at all, the report said.

In one incident a six-year-old boy made “sexual suggestions” to a 49-year-old woman teacher in the West Midlands. A boy aged eight licked a teacher’s leg and touched her breast in Cambridge.
