A young teacher who had sex with two teenage schoolboys has been jailed for six-and-a-half years.

“Sexual predator” Rebecca Joynes, 30, was found guilty by a jury at Manchester Crown Court in May of six sex offences following a two-week trial.

She was sentenced at the same court today.

As previously reported,

Joynes had groomed the pupils from the age of 15 and was on bail for sexual activity with the first, Boy A, when she began having sex with the second, Boy B, by whom she went on to become pregnant.

Neither boy can be identified.
