Lydia Ferguson was escorted from the secondary school she works at in March over the picture of her sitting on the edge of a bed wearing a short, white dress.
Pupils at Ousedale School in Newport Pagnell, near Milton Keynes, Bucks, rallied to her defence, launching a petition called "Get Miss Ferguson Back".
Miss Ferguson, 39, defended herself on social media at the time, saying:
"I don't think it's seductive or inappropriate either.
"I've always stuck to a rule on FB and Insta that if my Grandad bless his heart would look at any of my pictures in disgust then I would never post them."
“After it all blew I knew I couldn’t go back to the school. I’m no longer employed there.
“I just don’t want the stress of it anymore, my family have been through enough of it.
“It’s taken up quite a lot of my life which has been quite hard.”
A school spokesman added:
“We confirm that Lydia Ferguson is no longer employed as a member of the support staff and the school has nothing further to add.”
Pupils had defended Miss Ferguson, with one saying: "There is nothing wrong with the photo at all. We think Miss looks lovely."
