Industrial Law Journal Volume 35 NOTE Bolton School v Evans [2006] IRLR 500 (EAT) 1. THE FACTS The claimant was employed as a technology teacher from May 1996 until December 2003. He had been involved in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) project group and the school recognised that he was moti- vated to try and ensure that its new network was appropriate. Mr Evans expressed concerns that security issues were not satisfactorily addressed and these concerns were shared by his head of department, Dr Watson. On 5 September 2003 the claimant informed Mr Edmundson (the staff member desig- nated by the headmaster as the relevant contact person) that he was attempting to gain access to the system in order to test security and demonstrate what he perceived to be its failings. The claimant also discussed potential security weak- nesses with the head of computing, Mr Humphreys. The latter was content for a simple test to be conducted to see if Mr Evans could gain administrative access from resources available to pupils. On 8 September Mr Evans gained access to the system from a student PC and disabled some of the user accounts. He did not affect any data
