A man accused of abducting a schoolgirl wept in court as he was described as "one of the most gifted teachers".
Lewes Crown Court was also told that Jeremy Forrest, who denies a charge of child abduction, will not be giving evidence during his trial.
The court previously heard that the pupil involved in the case was 15 years old when she started a sexual relationship with Forrest after developing a crush on him at Bishop Bell CofE School in Eastbourne, Sussex.
And the 30-year-old broke down in tears as a witness statement read out in court said he was "one of most gifted teachers I have ever met". Forrest was also said to be "popular with pupils".
He continued crying as another statement, from his sister, described him as "good natured and mild mannered".
A statement provided by his best friend, Dale Ives Routlett, said Forrest had "always been a thinker, not a person who made rash decisions without taking consequences into account".
Ronald Jaffa, defending, told the court that Forrest would not be giving evidence.
