A teacher who had sex with two schoolboys and became pregnant by one of them has been jailed.
Rebecca Joynes groomed both boys from the age of 15, first exchanging messages on social media, Manchester Crown Court heard.
The 30-year-old was earlier convicted of four counts of sexual activity with a child and two counts of sexual activity with another child.
She was sentenced to six-and-a-half years.
The court previously heard that Joynes was 28 when she had come out of a nine-year relationship and was "flattered" by the attention of teenage schoolboys.
Neither teenager - known as Boy A and Boy B throughout the trial - can be identified due to their age.
'Flirtatious'
At the sentencing hearing, the judge, Kate Cornell, told Joynes: “You were the adult, the person in control.
"You should have known better. You failed to enforce the boundaries of proper conduct but deliberately transgressed them.”
The trial heard Joynes would "laugh off" inappropriate comments instead of shutting down the behaviour.
She gave Boy A all but one of the digits of her mobile phone number as a maths problem-solving exercise in which he had to work out the final digit.
They then connected on Snapchat and he sent her flirtatious texts, with the pair agreeing to meet in secret.
Boy A lied to his mother that he was staying at a friend's house after school but instead Joynes picked him up and took him to the Trafford Centre, where she bought him a £350 Gucci belt.
Judge Cornell said CCTV footage of Joynes buying the belt showed that “your flirtatious body language and eye contact could hardly be a clearer indication of grooming behaviour.”
