Teacher jailed after 'full blown' sexual relationship with 15-year-old boy

teacher who engaged in a “full blown” sexual relationship with a teenager has been jailed after a judge remarked: “What 15-year-old schoolboy would turn down such an attractive offer?”

Alice McBrearty, 23, blamed the affair on the stress of being “thrown in at the deep end” by Teach First, a prestigious fast-track scheme designed to attract the brightest graduates into the teaching profession.Snaresbrook Crown Court heard how she booked a room at an IBIS hotel where she had sex with the pupil, after befriending him on social media.

They kissed passionately in the classroom, met up three times at her parents' Wanstead home for sexual encounters and kissed in the school classroom, the court heard.
