A teacher from Wendover who had sex with a pupil will be sentenced today.

Kandice Barber told the 15-year-old she was pregnant with his baby and would 'bring him down with her' if their relationship was discovered.

After a jury couldn't decide last year, the 35-year-old was tried again in January and found guilty of engaging in sexual activity with a child.

She'd already been convicted in September over sending the boy topless images of herself on Snapchat.

Barber had denied the allegations against her, but today she will find out her sentence at Amersham Crown Court.
