Opinion by
Judge Blatt,Bernard J. Smith, Jr. (claimant) was dismissed by the New Kensington-Arnold School District (employer) for immoral conduct in connection with his teaching responsibilities. Although he was denied unemployment benefits by the Bureau of Employment Security, he was later granted benefits by a referee who held that the employer had not proved the discharge to have been for willful misconduct as required by Section 402(e) of the Unemployment Compensation Law,1 43 P.S. §802(e). The Board affirmed and this appeal followed.
We have reviewed the record and are satisfied that the Board was correct. The employer’s representative testified only in a conclusory manner that the claimant had engaged in immoral conduct and was consequently discharged; he declined to elaborate even after the referee pointed out the lack of underlying facts. There being no competent evidence from which the Board could have made findings sufficient to support a determination of willful misconduct, it properly awarded benefits. See Parke v. Unemployment Compensation Board of Review, 38 Pa. Commonwealth Ct. 382, 393 *553A.2d 62 (1978). While there may he a very good reason for the employer’s inability to produce more evidence, we have no basis upon which to reach a conclusion different from that of the Board.
We agree with the Board, moreover, that a remand is not in order because the employer has not proffered any additional competent evidence.
The order of the Board is therefore affirmed.
