The woman, who was 39 at the time of the offending in September 2017, has pleaded guilty to one charge of sexual assault against a child under care, supervision or authority, in the Wangaratta Magistrates Court this week.
A charge related to grooming was dropped.
The pair had exchanged hundreds of messages of an increasing sexual nature through text messages and on Instagram, and culminated with the pair kissing at her home.

Police were alerted and the woman, who can't be named to protect the boy's identity, was charged.
She was suspended from the school before resigning, and may be registered as a sex offender.
The matter will return to court on June 26 for sentence.
