A Wellington schoolteacher has been committed for trial on four charges of assault and sexual violation of a seven-year-old girl nearly 10 years ago.

Wellington District Court judge Geoff Ellis remanded him on bail till January 30 at the High Court at Wellington after the 42-year-old man had admitted there was a case to answer at a depositions hearing yesterday.

Judge Ellis refused to continue name suppression, however it was reimposed till a High Court appeal can be heard.
