A longtime B.C. high school teacher has been banned from teaching for a year after admitting to inappropriately touching students and making inappropriate comments about students in his class.

John Peter Rocca had been working in the Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows school district when the incidents occurred, according to a resolution agreement signed by Rocca and the B.C. commissioner for teacher regulation.
