Shameless moment paedo teacher Rebecca Joynes asks cops ‘are you serious?’ as she’s arrested for bedding schoolboys
THIS is the shameless moment a paedo teacher arrested after bedding two schoolboys asked police: “Are you serious?”
Rebecca Joynes, 30, sent the teen pupils flirty texts and racy lingerie snaps after setting her sights on them in maths class.
She went on to have a baby with one of the boys after having sex with him at least 30 times when he turned 16.
Footage has now been released of the moment Joynes was snared as she was today jailed for six-and-a-half years over her vile crimes.
She can be seen letting two police officers into her smart flat after it emerged she had slept with a 15-year-old pupil known as Boy A.
Standing with her arms crossed, Joynes opens her mouth in apparent shock as she’s arrested on suspicion of sexual activity a child.
She then asks “are you serious?” before questioning how the development has come around.
The bodycam footage then flips to Joynes sitting in the back of a police van staring down at the ground.
Joynes preyed on her first victim – Boy A – when he was just 15 years old by exchanging flirtatious messages.
The former gymnast – known as “Bunda Becky” – gave him the first ten digits of her number and asked him to guess the last one.
He then messaged her saying “hi”, and when she failed to reply, he told her in class: “So, you’re just ignoring me then?”
The pair began texting in a “normal” way at first but Joynes then asked if he wanted to meet up.
He said: “I remember saying, ‘Surely you’re joking?’
“And she said: ‘No, I’m not’.”
In one set of texts, the pair discuss him going to her flat, with the teen asking if they were still on or not.
Joynes replies: “You better had come now you told me you are.”
The pair went to Selfridges together where Joynes was seen smirking as she bought the teen a £345 Gucci belt.
She then drove him back to her Salford flat in her Audi – even making a joke about their age gap.
They had unprotected sex twice, before Joynes told him: “No one had better find out”.
But the teen had taken a photo of his teacher lying down on the bed which, coupled with a love bite, led to rumours circulating.
His “distraught” mum then stormed into reception and Joynes was arrested.
Despite being bailed on the condition she did not contact any child under 18, the predator “brazenly” set her sights on a second pupil – Boy B – when he was aged 15.
This progressed into a sexual relationship when he turned 16 after Joynes sent a racy snap of her bum.
She also wrote the teen a gushing note describing him as “perfect”.
It read: “I know we are struggling right now and are both extremely stressed.
“But I really hope we can work something out to keep this going for a while longer.
“Every inch of you is perfect and you are all I ever dream about.”
Once he turned 16, the boy went to Joynes’ flat where she straddled and kissed him before taking his virginity.
The pair later went on to have sex at least 30 times in “numerous different places”.
Joynes told Boy B it was “nearly impossible” for her to get pregnant because she had polycystic ovary syndrome.
But he went to her flat for “date night” and was presented with pizza, scattered rose petals and an Ann Summers scratchcard of sexual activities.
A twisted treasure hunt led to a babygrow that said “I love my daddy to the moon and back”.
Boy B told the court he reacted by saying: “What the f**k?”
He said Joynes was crying and told him “I don’t know if I can do this on my own”.
The boy also told jurors she tried to end the relationship after believing Joynes was “emotionally abusing” him.
I was in love with him. I was pregnant with his child.

The teen added: “I would try and end it and would say ‘you are a f***ing weirdo, you’re a nonce basically, go find someone your own age’.”
He added that he’d spent 18-months of his life “with a paedophile”.
The baby was taken from Joynes following an emergency court hearing 24 hours after delivery and is now in the care of the teen dad.
The teacher, who clutched a baby bonnet every day in court, is allowed contact three times a week for three hours.
During her evidence, Joynes tried to portray herself as someone who just felt “lonely” and wanted the attention.
She told how she had gone through a break up during the pandemic as she strongly denied having a “powerful” sexual attraction to 15-year-old boys.
How shamed teacher's web of lies unravelled
By Holly Christodoulou, Digital Court Editor
REBECCA Joynes attempted to paint herself as a “lonely” teacher who was just craving attention when she began messaging her victims.
Claiming she had just gone through a break-up, the mum appeared horrified as she denied having a “powerful” sexual attraction to boys.
But while working at the school, she shunned work events and never interacted with her colleagues on a non-professional level.
Instead, Joynes struck up close bonds with her pupils – chatting with the girls at break time and “strutting” down the corridors as they cheered her on.
It wasn’t just the girls who had taken a shine to Joynes but also her male pupils, who found her “really pretty”.
She just laughed when she was given the nickname “Bunda Becky” and revelled in comments about how “sexy” she was.
Her vile crimes may even have been wrongly seen as rumours spread by schoolboys looking for respect among their peers.
But even though she factory reset her phone to cover her tracks, police were able to find texts that blew apart Joynes’ web of lies.
Instead of a desperate teacher looking for company during the pandemic, she was revealed as a predator who lured the teens for sex.
Joynes tried to backtrack through her trial – even at one stage blaming one of the pupils for “controlling her”.
She also sobbed as she attempted to garner sympathy by discussing the child she had with her 16-year-old victim.
Clutching a bonnet belonging to the baby, Joynes shook when the guilty verdicts were delivered.
The delusional teacher may have convinced herself she had done nothing wrong but her crimes were apparent to anyone who followed the case.
Now she’s been locked up, perhaps the true victims in the case can finally move on.
Joynes also told jurors she ruined her “dream job” with stupid “mistakes” – but claimed her sexual relationship with Boy B only began after he had turned 16 and they had both left the school.
The teacher said: “I was in love with him. I was pregnant with his child.”
But the court was told Joynes was simply a “gaslighter” who was trying to paint herself as the victim.
She was also accused of a “naked attempt to garner sympathy” by visibly tucking a baby’s bonnet belonging to the tot she had with Boy B into her trousers.
Jane Wilson, senior crown prosecutor for CPS North West, described Joynes as a “sexual predator”.
She said: “Joynes was entrusted with the responsibility of teaching and safeguarding children.
“She abused her position to groom and ultimately sexually exploit schoolboys. Her behaviour has had a lasting impact on them.”
