Rebecca Joynes is accused of engaging in sexual activities with two teenage boys, one of whom fathered her child while she was on bail.

Rebecca Joynes, a 30-year-old teacher, is on trial at Manchester Crown Court facing six counts of sexual activity with minors.
Allegations include grooming a 15-year-old with gifts and engaging in a long-term relationship with another student.
