Former Northwest B.C. Teacher Banned Following Sexual Relationship with Former Student
Ted Ewald admitted the conduct in a consent agreement, and regulators said he violated trust and harmed the student’s emotional safety.
- Terrace teacher Ted Ewald has accepted a lifetime teaching ban after admitting to a sexual relationship with a former student, ending his career in education.
- The Teacher Regulation Board found Ewald violated his privileged position of power and trust by engaging with a student interested in Indigenous land-based education connected to their cultural identity.
- Ewald maintained contact after the student's graduation, taking them on an overnight trip approximately five months later where they had sexual intercourse; the relationship continued for six months.
- Following his resignation from School District 82 on March 2, 2025, Ewald signed an undertaking not to teach on March 7, 2025, culminating in the August 18, 2026, consent agreement.
- The consent agreement emphasizes educators are role models held to higher standards; those impacted by sexual violence can contact the 24-hour Sexual Assault Support Crisis line or the RCMP.
