Ellie Wilson, then 26, engaged in sexual activity with the 16-year-old student as they flew home after a school trip abroad, prosecutors said.
The pair had sex in the toilet of an Airbus aircraft during an overnight flight to London's Heathrow Airport in 2015, Bristol Crown Court was told.
The boy later told police that she "pulled her trousers down" and was "standing on one leg".
Following the plane incident, Wilson told the teenager she was pregnant and they discussed what to do before deciding on an abortion, the court heard.
The defendant, now 29 and from Dursley, Gloucestershire, is currently on trial and denies four counts of abuse of position and sexual activity with a child.
She was today pictured arriving at the court in a black coat, with her hair tied up.
Wilson, a physics teacher, was head of Key Stage Four at a Bristol secondary school when the alleged offences took place three years ago, Bristol Live reports.
She no longer works at the school and has been struck off on recommendation from the National College for Teaching and Leadership (NCTL).
This morning, a jury heard that, in 2015, Wilson was considered a bright and capable teacher and Key Stage Four head, but that she had another side.
In her opening speech, Virginia Cornwall, prosecuting, said: "She was a woman having a clandestine relationship with a boy. She is a risk taker. She does accept there was inappropriate conduct outside of school, but nothing sexual."
The court heard nothing inappropriate happened until the school trip, which was attended by other teachers and students.
It is claimed there was an "erosion of boundaries" between Wilson and the teenager, who were often paired up together.
The court was told they had late night chats in a tent, including details about their lives, arising to a "bond" developing.
The teacher suggested he should move on from his girlfriend, the court heard.
Miss Cornwall said the boy felt an attraction, with Wilson's hand touching his.
And when they came home on the Airbus, the teacher beckoned him to the toilet before performing a sex act on him, the court was told.
Miss Cornwall, who said the pair also had sex, said alcohol may have played a part, and some pupils were also unwell on the aircraft.
She told the court the teacher gave the boy - who cannot be named for legal reasons - oral sex after beckoning him into the toilet.
They then had vaginal sex, she said.
The pair were later seen sitting with their legs intertwined, the court heard.
Wilson says what is claimed is "distorted fantasy".
On the flight back, the boy admitted drinking too much free alcohol, it was said.
He told police that he was "quite intoxicated" in the early hours of the morning, and that Wilson had been drinking too.
He said that, during the plane journey, the teacher slid her hands down his trousers and had "foreplay" with his penis.
She then called him to a toilet and he walked in and locked the door, he said.
After pulling back his jogging bottoms, she knelt in front of him and performed oral sex before standing up and pulling her trousers down, he said.
"I said 'you sure about this'. She said 'of course'," he told police.
"She was standing on one leg."
The teenager claimed they then had vaginal intercourse.
Afterwards, he said they had a "very brief conversation about how we were going out of the bathroom" before he left the toilet, followed by her.
Following the trip, the court heard the pair exchanged phone numbers.
The boy even told his father he was going to finish with his girlfriend as he wanted something more, it was alleged.
The pair are said to have had a 'reunion meal' at a Nando's restaurant, with the teenager buying chocolates and flowers for Wilson.
He then took her to his home and they kissed on his bed, Miss Cornwall said.
The prosecutor added: "He thought he was in a relationship with his teacher."
It was also claimed the teacher and pupil had a trip to Tintern Abbey involving them going to a pub, kissing and holding hands.
The boy's dad just thought the teacher was being caring and supporting his son through his break-up with his girlfriend, it was alleged.
Miss Cornwall said Wilson kept the relationship quiet from her boyfriend and phoned him from Italy when she went on holiday there.
The teacher and pupil also kissed on a trip to Ashton Court, the court heard.
But "the cat was let out of the bag" after rumours spread and the teacher was spoken to by her head and deputy teacher and denied wrongdoing.
The teacher then told the teenager that she was pregnant after sex on the plane, Miss Cornwall said, adding the news was hard for the boy to comprehend.
The court heard another male pupil became aware of the alleged relationship and threatened to expose them unless the teacher had sex with him.
Miss Cornwall said: "She engaged with the 'blackmailer' and tried to deal with it herself. She tried to sit on it, she tried to cover it up."
But in February 2016, Wilson informed on the 'blackmailer' and he was moved from school.
The school then talked to the boy's dad and asked Wilson if she had engaged sexually with the boy out of school, and she denied it.
She resigned after a school investigation.
In a detailed interview, she said there was a friendship with the boy and admitted she shouldn't have gone as far as she did but there was nothing sexual.
She said she was isolated and lonely and the boy was a friend.
She also said that on the plane she was on her period.
Wilson admitted she had days out with the teenager at Tintern Abbey and Ashton Court, according to Bristol Live.
Jurors were told they must be sure there was sexual touching and an abuse of trust by the teacher on the pupil.
Miss Cornwall said: "He is a young man who has no motive for making all this up."
The school's name can also not be revealed for legal reasons.
The trial continues.
