Wearing a wedding ring is a matter of no great consequence. Many people who are not married wear wedding rings and sometimes, in particular circumstances, people remove them. It would be inappropriate for a teacher to give a seminar on his or her marriage, whether same-sex or opposite-sex. I do not remember anything like that from any of the schools I went to, ghastly as some of them were. Nobody ever asked a teacher whether he or she was married or asked to hear all about his or her married life. Go away out of that. I do not know what kind of brats we are rearing now.
