It’s not okay for a teacher to ask a pupil on a date, make sexual suggestions or do something sexual with a pupil. It’s not right of her to give you a lower grade if you say no. If she were to do something sexual with you that you don’t want to do, it’s illegal. Tell another adult what happened to make sure it does not happen again.
