Teacher ‘sent boy, 15, she had baby with underwear snap while she was on bail for having sex with another pupil’
A TEACHER sent a boy she had a baby with an X-rated underwear photo while she was on bail for sleeping with another pupil, a court heard.
Rebecca Joynes, 30, is accused of having sexual relationships with two students while working as a maths teacher.
She had a baby with one of the pupils, Boy B, after beginning a relationship when he was aged 15, jurors heard.
This then progressed into a sexual relationship when he turned 16, with the pair allegedly sleeping together around 30 times.
During his evidence, Boy B told the court Joynes sent him a photo of her bum while wearing a pair of knickers.
He said: “As a 16-year-old lad I thought I was in there.”
The boy told jurors he asked Joynes if they could meet up and ended up going round to her flat in Salford.
He claimed it was “quite awkward at first” as she was double his age but they then shared a kiss.
The boy said Joynes said she wasn’t sure if they should kiss before he had left school, but he told the court they carried on and had sex in her bed.
He alleges they later went on to have sex at least 30 times in “numerous different places”.
Boy B told jurors he was aware Joynes had been arrested and bailed over allegations relating to the first student, named as Boy A.
He said at first he didn’t believe she would meet up with him but they began seeing each other regardless.
The teen added: “I thought she liked me because she was sending me pictures of her bum.
“I was asking if it would progress but she wasn’t comfortable because I was still at school.
“But it kind of happened anyway.”
Joynes then became pregnant and gave birth to his child despite telling him she was infertile, jurors were told.
She allegedly broke the news by presenting him with a babygrow that included the words: “I love my daddy.”
He is said to have cried and told Joynes that he did not want a baby.
The court heard yesterday how Joynes had first “groomed” Boy A, who was then 15, by taking him shopping at Selfridges.
Joynes then allegedly bought him a £345 Gucci belt before taking him home in her white Audi where they had sex twice.
He claimed Joynes had laughed and told him to “shut up” when he mentioned his age to her.
The pair then allegedly went back to her flat and had unprotected sex, with Boy A telling his teacher: “I hope to God you don’t get pregnant.”
Messages allegedly shared between Joynes and the teen were also read to the court.
In one exchange, they joked about another pupil joining them before Boy A tells his teacher he should be “the only one”.
Joynes responded: “Obviously it’s only you.”
A police investigation was launched in October 2021 and she was subsequently arrested and bailed on the condition she did not contact any child under 18.
Joynes denies two counts of sexual activity with Boy A, two counts of sexual activity with Boy B and two counts of sexual activity with Boy B while being a person in a position of trust.
