A notorious paedophile teacher has reportedly had her temporary prison release revoked after she was caught meeting up with her new girlfriend.

Kandice Barber, 37, was jailed for six years and two months in 2021 after she groomed a 15-year-old student before having sex with him in a field. This year the mum-of-three started working at a site building council homes in Hounslow, west London, after being granted a Release on Temporary Licence. However Barber reportedly used the privilege, which is aimed at reintegrate prisoners in the community before their release, to meet up with her new lover Jay Delaney - a convicted fraudster.

A source told the Sun: “Kandice is only allowed out to go to work - but she and her new partner have been meeting up in secret. They’ve been meeting up on her way to work and her way home. It’s frustrating that she’s still in prison but they’re now meeting up for, you know, ‘time together’ shall we say."

The source added the two convicts have been planning their lives together once they are released from jail. Another source previously told Mail Online: "They openly kiss, cuddle and hold hands and appear 100% in love, they make no attempt to hide their relationship. I was told that they had been sharing a cell together but officers found out and moved them."

Barber, from Buckinghamshire, was found guilty of grooming the child, taking him to a field and kissing him on the neck before asking him: "What do you want to do now?" After having sex with the boy she threatened him with false rape accusations if he reported her.

Meanwhile Delaney was given five years in April for a £388,000 fraud. The 34-year-old from Southend, Essex, would tell her victims, many of whom were friends and work colleagues, that she worked for Aviva and could turn a £5,500 investment into £10,000 within a couple of years, enticing them to invest most of their life-savings into her "scheme". In fact, she would transfer the money into her own account and gamble it online, Essex Live reports.

Both women are believed to have had their prison release revoked. A Ministry of Justice spokesperson told the The Mirror: “Prisoners are subject to tough risk assessments before they are allowed out on temporary release. They must also abide by strict rules and face extra time behind bars if they don’t comply.”
