The secondary school is said to be one of the top schools in Singapore.
The teacher, said to be in her twenties, was a literature teacher and in charge of one of the school’s sports teams, according to both newspapers.
The student involved is now 16-years-old and was a member of the sports team under her charge.
Many believe that the pair began to develop feelings for each other after spending prolonged periods of time together as the boy was part of the teacher's sports team, reported Lianhe Wanbao.
According to The Straits Times, the two had sex more than once. When the parents found out about their relationship, they complained to the school immediately.
The teacher is said to have left the school in March 2012 after the incident came to light. When the Chinese daily asked the school whether the teacher left on her own or was sacked, the school replied via email that it will provide an answer within three days.
The police have confirmed that they have received a report and are currently conducting investigations.
Since the boy was underaged when the incident occurred, the identities of the student and the teacher, as well as the name of the school, cannot be revealed.
When contacted, the principal of the secondary school refused to confirm whether the teacher is still with the school, saying “I have not received any notice from the police regarding the case,” reported Lianhe Wanbao.
A spokesperson from the Ministry of Education said it will work with the school and the police in ongoing investigations.
In 2009, a 32-year-old married teacher became the first person to be charged and sentenced for having sex with a male student.
The woman was married with two children, while the student was just 15-years-old. The teacher was sentenced to 10 years in jail.
