A plot by a Blackburn teenager to attack an Anzac Day parade in Australia would "in all probability" have caused a number of deaths if it had not been stopped, a court has heard.
At a sentencing hearing, Manchester Crown Court heard the boy encouraged a Melbourne man to behead police officers at a parade in April.
He had previously threatened to cut the throat of his teacher, the court heard.
The 15-year-old has pleaded guilty to one count of inciting terrorism.
The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is thought to be the youngest Briton guilty of a terror offence.
His lawyer said his offences were serious, but he should no longer be considered dangerous.
