Story here. Excerpt;

'A FEMALE music teacher who had sex with two students sobbed today as she was sentenced to more than four years jail.

Michelle Lynn Dennis, 33, had betrayed the trust of the students and shown little remorse, the Ballarat County Court heard.

Judge Susan Cohen said the Ballarat teacher's offending had been worse than that of Karen Ellis because she had sex with more than one student.

In 2005, Karen Ellis, a physical education teacher, was convicted of having sex with a student and jailed for two years and two months.

Dennis pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual penetration of a child under her care, supervision or authority and one count of sexual penetration of a child under 16.

Dennis denied the crimes until the day of her scheduled trial.'
