Rebecca Joynes cried in the dock as she was sentenced for six counts of engaging in sexual activity with a child, including two while being a person in a position of trust
A paedophile teacher who had sex with two teenage boys, having a baby with one, has been jailed for six and a half years.
Disgraced maths teacher Rebecca Joynes, 30, was convicted in April of six counts of sexual activity with children after sleeping with one pupil before falling pregnant by a second while on police bail.
The boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were 15 and 16 at the time.
Parents of both boys watched as Joynes, wearing a gold necklace, black padded jacket and with blonde highlights in her hair, visibly shook and broke down in tears as she was jailed at Manchester Crown Court.
Passing sentence, Judge Kate Cornell told the defendant: “There is a breathtaking arrogance in your conduct. You were the adult.
“You were the person in control, the person who should have known better and entrusted by the school and the boys and by their parents of caring for their sons.
