A former Marist College Canberra teacher will plead guilty to indecently assaulting two boys at the school in the 1980s, a court has been told.
Gregory Joseph Sutton, 65, was one of four men police charged with fresh offences earlier this year as part of an investigation into historical child sexual abuse in territory schools.
Sutton had faced allegations in the ACT Magistrates Court of indecent assault committed against two children in the early 1980s.
He had not entered pleas but the matter was committed to the ACT Supreme Court in August.
Sutton will now avoid going to trial after lawyers told the court on Thursday he would plead guilty to two charges of indecent assault against the boys in 1980 and 1981.
