A Queensland high school teacher who moonlights as a porn star has been allowed to continue work after being outed by a "disgusted" parent.
Gordon Parsons – a former Queensland Teacher of The Year finalist – will remain in his role as a special needs educator at Ipswich State Highafter it was discovered he had participated in hardcore porn videos with girlfriend Megan Lock, who also goes by the moniker Luci Power on her adult OnlyFans and Pornhub platforms.
The Courier Mail reports Mr Parsons was moved from Corinda State High last year after the Education Department was alerted to his secret life as a porn actor.
He now teaches under the name James Parsons.
His risqué job was first uncovered by a "shocked and disgusted" parent who discovered after seeing Mr Parsons and his partner during a buck's party trip to Brisbane's Sexpo last year, where Ms Lock was an entertainer.

It's reported Education Queensland allowed Mr Parsons to continue teaching on the agreement he removes all his pornographic content from the internet.
In a letter seen by The Courier Mail, the parent who blew the whistle on Mr Parsons wrote to Ipswich High principal Simon Riley this month to raise concern about the teacher's "moral conduct" and continued employment.

The parent first raised the alarm in a letter to Corinda State High principal Helen Jamieson last year following the Sexpo discovery. The father was hoping the sighting was a case of mistaken identity but, following some internet sleuthing, he stumbled upon the graphic videos of Mr Parsons and his partner.
"There we found out that … they video each other performing sexual acts on one another and are selling the videos on adult websites," the parent wrote.
There is no suggestion by news.com.au that what Mr Parsons did was illegal.
