However, Channel 7 has reported that some charges against her will now be dropped.
“There are a couple of charges being discontinued. It’s just finetuning the events that happened during the period of offending,” lawyer Michael Tudori said on Friday.
Craig was employed as a teacher at the Frederick Irwin Anglican School at Meadow Springs near Mandurah, about 50km south of Perth.
Her teaching licence was suspended after she was charged.
Police Commissioner Colonel Blanch confirmed a DNA test had been conducted and police believed the woman gave birth to a baby in January that was fathered by the child she is accused of sexually assaulting.
Ms Craig will be sentenced in the Perth District Court on November 17.
