A HUNKY sex education teacher confessed yesterday that he works as a hardcore porn star - and said: "I'm not ashamed."
Benedict Garrett, 30, rakes in cash filming raunchy titles such as European Honeyz 4.
He owned up to his secret life after pupils discovered he was already a stripper called Johnny Anglais who plugs his steamy routine on a website. But 6ft 2in Garrett - now suspended as a department head by school chiefs - is unrepentant.
He said: "It is something I do in my personal life that doesn't go against anything I teach the kids.
"There are many more immoral ways to earn money than romping in front of a camera.
"Lawyers defend paedophiles, bankers raise money using questionable means and large corporations often put finances ahead of the environment."
Garrett insisted: "I'm not ashamed of what I've done."
He admitted he often performs without protection - despite his role promoting safe sex to teenagers.
He insisted: "I believe the risk of catching anything from a fellow porn star is minute. The industry is strict about performers providing sexual health certificates."
Garrett was a hard-up student when his tanned and honed physique got him jobs as a "naked butler" with only a tiny apron to preserve his modesty.
He was working as a stripper when he was invited to audition as a porn star paid £300 a scene. Garrett said: "As a red-blooded male, I thought, 'Why on Earth not?' It was fantastic money for a student - and who wouldn't want to romp with beautiful girls?"
But he vowed to turn his back on porn after he gained teaching qualifications.
He became head of Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education at Beal High School, Ilford, Essex, in 2008. Garrett said: "The job was fulfilling in many ways. But it became increasingly pressured and I realised it wasn't for me.
"I contacted a firm that puts on fun Full Monty-style shows at pubs and social clubs. I started stripping at weekends and during school holidays. I love it. Another porn producer contacted me about shooting a film and I haven't looked back."
Garrett found he had been rumbled as a stripper when he caught pupils laughing.
