A married teacher let out a bloodcurdling scream as she was jailed for a year after having sex with a schoolboy.
Lauren Cox, 27, let out a screeching cry as a judge sentenced her to 12 months in prison today.
The teacher admitted a having a 6-month-long sexual relationship with a 16-year-old boy, which was discovered by his mother.
Cox also said "I'm sorry" to her tearful family sitting in the public gallery as she was taken to the cells at Croydon Crown Court.
The teacher, who worked at a school in south London, met the pupil when he was 13 and would give him sweets, a court heard.
Brian Reece, prosecuting, said in February last year Cox gave the boy a lift.
He said: ‘They could either sit in silence, she could simply drop him at the station – or they could hug. He chose the third. This was the first step into what she knew was forbidden territory. By March, they began a sexual relationship when he was 16.
Cox went on the pill, telling him it would ‘feel better’. She also sent him explicit selfie videos and told him to keep the relationship a secret.
The boy, from Oxted in Surrey, had invented teenage girlfriends to fool his parents.
Suspicious, the mother spied on her son and watched Cox pick him up in her car at the family home.
In a showdown with the mother last August, the teacher claimed she was giving ‘extra tuition’ before agreeing to end the affair and resign.
In a victim statement, the boy, who is unnamed for legal reasons, said he ‘felt trapped’ and distanced himself from his friends and family.
Judge Adam Huddleston told Cox:
‘You have not just been a shame and disgrace to yourself, you have brought teaching into disrepute.
"After you made a full confession you begged to break the news and she allowed you do to so.
"And then you didn't do as you said. At that further meeting you had sex with him again in a flagrant breach of trust instilled in you by his mother.
"Despite being warned to desist by the victim's mother you offended again."
Cox has been jailed for 12 months and barred from teaching.
She is getting a divorce from husband Andrew, 30.
