Abuse of power: The maths teacher leans in as the girl resists his advances at a school in Chongqing
A teacher in China who was caught on camera kissing a student in his office has been sacked.
Mr Xu was filmed by other students as he groped the 16-year-old girl at a school in the Yubei District of Chongqing, southwest China, reports dailymail.
The 30-second clip, captured on a mobile phone, caused outcry when it was posted online days ago, according to the People's Daily Online.

A message alongside the clip read: '26th April 2015 in Chongqing Liangjiang Middle School mathematics teacher filmed hugging and kissing a female student in the XXXX office'.
The video shows the balding and bespectacled teacher fondling and kissing the teenager by his office window as she turns her head away, seemingly trying to resist his advances.
He then grabs her round the waist and starts kissing her neck.
The shocking footage has attracted a lot of public attention and debate across China, with calls for action to be taken against the school.
The local government and the Yubei District Board of Education have both launched investigations, since the video emerged.
Its initial findings were that the video was genuine and that the teacher involved had committed a serious breach of professional conduct.

Outrage: The clip, which appears to be showing the girl being kissed against her will, has sparked outrage in China

The board of education announced that Xu has already been sacked while investigations into other personnel at the school were ongoing.
A statement from the school read: 'He severely violated the teachers' guide for professional conduct and he has been dismissed from his position.
'We do not tolerate that sort of behaviour in our school from anyone, especially from teachers.'
The shocking incident follows a string of disturbing incidents at Chinese school and colleges.
Earlier this month, MailOnline reported on dramatic footage which showed a history teacher hitting a female student with a textbook then stamping on her, during a classroom fight in China.
Mr Wang hit out at teenager Gao while she was seated, and then again as she starts to stand up, after she shouted at him when asked to stop talking. 
Another was sacked last month after punishing two students by making them kneel on the floor and act as footstools.

(Nigeria) The National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, has been restrained by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, from imposing fines on broadcast stations in the country. Trial judge in the matter, Justice James Omotosho also set aside the N500,000 fines imposed on March 1, 2019, on each of 45 broadcast stations. The court made the orders in its judgment a suit by the Incorporated Trustees of Media Rights Agenda, MRA, which had sued the NBC. Justice Omotosho held that the NBC, not being a court of law, had no power to impose sanctions as punishment on broadcast stations. The court further held that the Nigeria Broadcasting Code, which gives the commission the power to impose sanction, is in conflict with Section 6 of the Constitution that vested judicial power in the court of law. He said the court would not sit idle and watch a body imposing fine arbitrarily without recourse to the law. He said that the commission did not comply with the law when it sat as a complainant and at
