article: Teacher Carol Chandler, 53, (pictured outside court) is accused of indecently assaulting a boy under the age of 16 in the 1980s at a top independent school . A female teacher has appeared in court in connection with alleged historic child sex abuse at a top independent school. Carol Chandler, 53, of Wellington, Shropshire, is accused of indecently assaulting a boy under the age of 16 in the 1980s. She was charged as part of the Metropolitan Police’s Operation Winthorpe, Scotland Yard’s investigation into allegations of sex abuse at St Paul’s School in Barnes, south west London - where former pupils include Chancellor George Osborne. The investigation is also looking into its prep school Colet Court. Chandler is charged with three counts of indecent assault and two counts of gross indecency on a male under the age of 16 between 1983 and 1985. Dressed in a smart grey dress, she appeared at City of Westminster Magistrates’ Court and spoke only to confirm her identity. Her case was sent to Southwark Crown Court, where she is due to appear on April 21. A total of five people have now been charged by officers from Operation Winthorpe. Michael Ellis, 69, and Chandler are the latest to be charged. Ellis, of Chiswick, west London, is accused of one count of indecent assault on a 14-year-old boy in 1973, one count of indecent assault on a 16-year-old boy in 1992 and four counts of making indecent images on or before July 8 last year. One man remains on bail pending further inquiries. The boys-only day school on the banks of the Thames has one of the toughest admissions tests in London and most pupils come from its £6,000-a-year preparatory school Colet Court. Five people have been charged by officers from investigating child sex abuse at St Paul's (pictured) Chandler leaving Westminster Magistrates' Court today after appearing on the five charges .
