SINGAPORE: A former teacher has pleaded guilty to having consensual sex with her former student.
The 32-year-old woman, who cannot be named, admitted that she had consensual sex with the boy twice, when he was 13 years old.
The first offence was committed in Sembawang Park in May 2011, while the second was committed at her home in July 2011.
At the time of the offences, the woman was 31 years old.
Court documents showed that the two met when she was teaching in Primary 6.
The boy, a repeat student, would tell the teacher about his schoolmates who were smoking outside of school.
She bought him a bottle of perfume as a reward.
They grew closer and started dating.
This continued until the accused turned herself in after the school principal asked her to write a report defining her relationship with the boy.
The ex-teacher faces a jail term of up to 10 years and a fine for having sex with a minor.
