A FORMER master at a top school appeared at the Old Bailey today accused of sexually assaulting pupils.
Stephen Douglas-Hogg, 51, from North Yorkshire, pleaded not guilty to buggery and two offences of indecent assault on boys under 16.
The charges date back to the 1980s when he was working at St Pauls Cathedral Choir School in the City of London.
Douglas-Hogg, of Filey, appeared by video link from prison and was remanded back into custody.
He also pleaded not guilty to two charges of child cruelty with another former school worker, Jane Violaris, 48, of Harrow, north London, who was on bail.
They will both face trial in October.
