Sydney - A Sydney primary school teacher said Friday she would take legal action to get her job back after being sacked for appearing nude with her husband in a women's magazine.

Lynne Tziolas was dismissed by her head teacher last week after a complaint from a parent over a spread in Cleo magazine that had nine couples talking about their sex lives.

"As teachers we're expected to be somewhat superhuman and not have a private life," she said. "It's denying the fact that teachers are normal. Yes we have sex, yes we enjoy it." (dpa)
