This is 17-year-old Emily Reay. She is a student at Trinity School in Carlisle, and she has been kicked out of school until she changes her hair colour.<\/h3>\n

Emily Reay is a 17-year-old school student with the most incredible coloured hair – it’s bright red.<\/p>\n

Her natural colour is red, but for the last three years, she has enhanced it slightly to accentuate the vibrancy.<\/p>\n

But apparently, Em’s auburn hair is suddenly “too vibrant” for school now, despite the fact she’s maintained this colour for over three years.<\/p>\n

Emily has been told by her school that until she does something about her hair, she is banned from lessons.<\/p>\n

Emily Raey<\/h6>\n

“I was very angry at first, and then burst into tears. I’ve had the same colour for the past three years, and nobody at school has commented on it,” she said,<\/p>\n

Emily says her hair is her trademark and identity as a musician.<\/p>\n

“They had her in tears, they do not realise what her hair means to her,” Emily’s mum said.<\/p>\n

“The school’s uniform policy clearly states no unnatural hair colours, like blue or green. But is ginger not a natural hair colour?”<\/p>\n

The head of Emily’s year group said the students have to lead by example.<\/p>\n

“We have a policy of maintaining high standards. All sixth form students are issued with information about what is acceptable or unacceptable at the start of the academic year. The vast majority of parents are very keen on our high standards.”<\/p>\n

What do you think? Is it fair that they’re making Emily change her hair, or should she be able to continue?<\/p>\n
