A
disgraced teaching assistant who had unprotected sex with pupils at
home while her husband was at work has avoided a second stretch in
prison.
Emma
Webb, 44, had sex with the two teenagers on the stairs and on the
living room floor of her home, as well as in her car, in a 'disgraceful'
abuse of power.
The
mother-of-two would even encourage the boys to skip class so she could
perform oral sex on them in an empty maths classrooms, the court was
told.
She would later send them suggestive photos, in which she posed with sex toys in her underwear for 'her own gratification'.
At
Reading Crown Court, Webb, from Bracknell, Berkshire, admitted 12
counts of sexual activity with a child by a person in a position of
trust.
But
she was handed a 15-month suspended prison sentence because the judge
said she had already served time in jail for similar offences.
Webb
had been jailed in December 2012 for admitting 30 sexual offences with
five other pupils which took place at the same time at the same
Berkshire school, which cannot be named for legal reasons.
Recorder John Gallagher said: 'You disgracefully abused your position of trust.
'There's
no doubt about it - you abused your position in a serious way over a
prolonged period of time with these two boys and it involved, I have
little doubt, a degree of planning on your part.
'I
accept that you had your own problems but the truth is that ultimately
it was for your own gratification and you ignored the needs of these two
boys.'
The
court heard how Webb had started a fling with a 16-year-old boy after
being assigned as his support worker, following his brother's death.
She
gained the boy's trust before sending him a series of flirty text
messages, one of which said: 'If I was younger I'd be the girl for you.'
The
court heard how, on one occasion, she lured the 16-year-old to her
house for sex after sending him a Facebook message, telling him that her
husband was out.
