Future's not orange for these young ladies
A HEADTEACHER is cracking down on schoolgirls who turn up for class looking "orange" after using cheap fake tans.
The trend, favoured by celebrity glamour girls such as Jordan and Jodie Marsh, has been adopted by thousands of young women.
But for the young ladies at Baines School in Lancashire, founded nearly 300 years ago, the future may be bright but is certainly not orange.
The headteacher, Carol Robinson, said: "We have young girls coming into school, 11 and 12, who feel pressured to go out and daub themselves in this orange.
"They have streaks on their legs and orange hands," she said. "That is what we are saying is not acceptable."
• Meanwhile, Plymouth City Council in Devon has banned cheese on the lunchtime jacket potatoes in all 17 of its primary schools in an attempt to meet the government's nutrient standards.
