I think its right she was sacked. She was warned beforehand what would happen and she still went. Was it worth it or not? She will find it hard now to find another job in education because she took unauthorised leave during term time.

"Mrs Brand-Parkinson continually ignored instruction that she was not permitted to take time off during the college term time to appear on a game show from her line manager, the vice-principal and the college principal.

"She also ignored advice from her union representative that by appearing on the game show she would face dismissal for gross misconduct."

Mrs Brand-Parkinson, a mum of one of Mowbray Avenue, Blackburn, said she had won a prize that was "not life-changing" on the show, which will be aired on June 12.
