Peter Harris, the school caretaker has been jailed after he hid secret cameras in toilets, showers and designed a specially adapted jacket to film his victims.
Mirror Online reports that Harris adapted school appliances for his own sick ends, including a camera in the side of a locker pointing towards a toilet.
Harris, who will be placed on the sexual offenders register, also made a hole in one of his coats so he could discreetly film people at the school.
The 45-year-old man was only caught when a member of staff discovered a camera taped to the side of a locker in the school's disabled toilet. He was promptly arraigned at Harrow Crown Court.
The court learnt that the school caretaker had tampered with a plastic paper dispenser in the staff shower room so he could place a camera pointing at the shower.
Police were called and an investigation led to Harris admitting to owning the locker room camera and also handed over a bag of USB sticks and VHS tapes to the cops. It was established that he was the only individual who had access to the dispenser, which was locked by a key.
Peter Harris, of Barnet, north London, pleaded guilty to 21 counts of recording an image of a person doing a private act, one count of installation of equipment to record a person doing a private act, one count of adapting a structure to record a person doing a private act, and possession of four indecent images of children.
He was jailed for 16 months for each offence to run concurrently after pleading guilty to two dozen voyeurism offences.
DC Jon Ritsema, the officer in the case from the Sexual Offences, Exploitation and Child Abuse Command said:"Harris has abused the trust of staff, children and parents of his school and I am pleased with the sentence he has received today.
"He went to great lengths to conceal his offending and would like to commend the school for how it has pulled together at what has obviously been a difficult time for all concerned."
